Chromatin state changes in HOXA9/MEIS1 leukemia cells [ChIP-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Aberrant expression of homeobox transcription factor HOXA9 is a central component of the leukemogenic program driven by diverse oncogenes. Here we show that HOXA9 overexpression in myeloid progenitor cells and pro-B cells leads to significant rearrangement of the epigenetic landscape with prominent emergence of cancer-specific de novo enhancers. HOXA9 acts as a pioneer factor at the de novo enhancers and is required for recruitment of transcription factor CEBP/ and the histone H3K4 methyltransferase MLL3/MLL4 complex. The HOXA9 function at de novo enhancers is distinct from its physiological role at enhancers during normal hematopoietic development. The MLL3/MLL4 complex physically interacts with HOXA9 and is required both for the active enhancer signatures at de novo enhancers and HOXA9/MEIS1-mediated leukemogenesis. The findings suggest that therapeutic targeting of HOXA9-dependent histone methylation could be an effective therapeutic strategy in acute leukemia associated with HOXA9 over expression.

RNA expression changes in HOXA9/MEIS1 leukemia cells

Project description:Aberrant expression of homeobox transcription factor HOXA9 is a central component of the leukemogenic program driven by diverse oncogenes. Here we show that HOXA9 overexpression in myeloid progenitor cells and pro-B cells leads to significant rearrangement of the epigenetic landscape with prominent emergence of cancer specific de novo enhancers. HOXA9 acts as a pioneer factor at the de novo enhancers and is required for recruitment of transcription factor CEBP/a and the histone H3K4 methyltransferase MLL3/MLL4 complex. HOXA9 function at the de novo enhancer is distinct from its physiological role at distal enhancers during normal hematopoietic development. Genetic deletion of MLL3/4 specifically affects the active enhancer signatures at de novo enhancers and inhibits HOXA9/MEIS1-mediated leukemogenesis. Our study reveals a previously uncharacterized role of HOXA9 and the MLL3/4 complex in leukemogenesis and provide mechanistic insights in epigenetic deregulation during malignant transformation.

Hoxa9 and Meis1 cooperatively induce addiction to Syk signaling by suppressing miR-146a in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:The transcription factor Meis1 drives myeloid leukemogenesis in the context of Hox gene overexpression but is currently considered undruggable. We therefore investigated whether myeloid progenitor cells transformed by Hoxa9 and Meis1 become addicted to targetable signaling pathways. A comprehensive (phospho)proteomic analysis revealed that Meis1 increased Syk protein expression and activity. Syk upregulation occurs through a Meis1-dependent feed-forward loop. By dissecting this loop, we show that Syk is a direct target of miR-146a, whose expression is indirectly regulated by Meis1 through the transcription factor PU.1. In the context of Hoxa9 overexpression, Syk induces Meis1, recapitulating several leukemogenic features of Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia. Finally, we show that Syk inhibition disrupts the identified regulatory loop, prolonging survival of mice with Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia.

Genome-wide maps of adipogenic TFs during brown preadipocyte differentiation

Project description:Enhancers play a central role in cell-type-specific gene expression and are marked by H3K4me1/2. Active enhancers are further marked by H3K27ac. However, the methyltransferases responsible for the deposition of H3K4me1/2 on enhancers remain elusive. Furthermore, the functions of these methyltransferases on enhancers and associated cell-type-specific gene expression are poorly understood. Here, we identify MLL4 (KMT2D) as a major H3K4 mono- and di-methyltransferase in mammalian cells. Using adipogenesis and myogenesis as model systems, we show that MLL4 exhibits cell-type- and differentiation-stage-specific genomic binding and is predominantly localized on enhancers. MLL4 co-localizes with lineage-determining transcription factors (TFs) on active enhancers during differentiation. Deletion of MLL4 dramatically decreases H3K4me1/2 and H3K27ac on enhancers and leads to severe defects in cell-type-specific gene expression and cell differentiation. Finally, we provide evidence that lineage-determining TFs recruit and require MLL4 to establish enhancers critical for cell-type-specific gene expression. Together, these results identify MLL4 as an H3K4 mono-/di-methyltransferase required for enhancer activation during cell differentiation. ChIP-Seq analyses of adipogenic TF (C/EBPalpha, C/EBPbeta, and PPARgamma) and Pol II profiles at D0 (day 0) and D2 (day 2) of adipogenesis in WT (MLL3-/-) and MLL4 KO (MLL3-/-;MLL4-/-) brown preadipocytes.

MLL3/MLL4 are required for CBP/p300 binding on enhancers and super-enhancer formation in brown adipogenesis

Project description:Histone H3K4me1/2 methyltransferases MLL3/MLL4 and H3K27 acetyltransferases CBP/p300 are major enhancer epigenomic writers. To understand how these epigenomic writers orchestrate enhancer landscapes during cell differentiation, we have profiled genomic binding of MLL4, CBP, lineage-determining transcription factors, as well as transcriptome and epigenome during adipogenesis of immortalized preadipocytes derived from mouse brown adipose tissue (BAT). We show that MLL4 and CBP drive the dynamic enhancer epigenome, which correlates with the dynamic transcriptome. MLL3/MLL4 are required for CBP/p300 binding on enhancers activated during adipogenesis. Further, we show that MLL4 and CBP identify super-enhancers of adipogenesis and that MLL3/MLL4 are required for the formation of super-enhancers. Finally, in brown adipocytes differentiated in culture, MLL4 identifies primed super-enhancers of genes fully activated in BAT such as the thermogenic Ucp1. Comparison of MLL4-defined super-enhancers in brown and white adipogenesis predicted a list of brown-specific super-enhancers SEs associated genes that are likely to be important to BAT functions. These results establish MLL3/MLL4 and CBP/p300 as master enhancer epigenomic writers and suggest that enhancer-priming by MLL3/MLL4 followed by enhancer-activation by CBP/p300 sequentially shape dynamic enhancer landscapes during cell differentiation. Our data also provide a rich resource for understanding epigenomic regulation of brown adipogenesis.

Genome-wide co-occupancy of Hoxa9 and C/EBPα in Hoxa9/Meis1 transformed HSCs [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Identification of the genome-wide binding sites of Hoxa9 and C/EBPα in a murine myeloblastic cell line transformed by Hoxa9/Meis1. Over 50% of Hoxa9 binding sites are co-bound by C/EBPα, providing mechanistic insight into the requirement of C/EBPα for Hoxa9-mediated leukemogenesis. Additionally, genome-wide occupancy of H3K4 monomethylation and H3K27 trimethylation provide additional information on the functionality of Hoxa9/C/EBPα cobound loci. Examination of two transcription factor binding sites and two histone modifications in a transformed cell line.

Gene expression profiles upon Meis1 knockout in Hoxa9/Meis1-induced AML

Project description:Meis1 is found cooperatively activated with Hoxa7/a9 in AML, and it indeed promotes leukemogenic activities of Hoxa9. It is important to identify downstream target genes of Meis1 to understand its cooperative activity with Hoxa9 in leukemogenesis. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression upon Meis1 knockout. Murine primary bone marrow cells of the Rosa26-Cre-ERT2 knock-in mouse were transformed by retroviral transduction of Hoxa9 and floxed Meis1. The immortalized bone marrow cells were treated with 2 μM of 4-hydroxytamoxifen to delete Meis1 cDNA. Gene expression profiles were compared between the original Hoxa9/Meis1-expressing cells and Meis1 deleted (Hoxa9 only) cells.
