Alkylating Agent-Induced ER Stress Overcomes Microenvironmental Resistance to Lymphoma Therapy

ABSTRACT: Compartment-specific resistance to cancer therapy remains poorly understood. We utilized orthotopic xenografts of human double-hit lymphoma (DHL) to interrogate responses across involved sites. We identified resistance to multiple chemotherapies and the anti-CD52 antibody Alemtuzumab within the bone marrow (BM) that depended on extensive lymphoma involvement and impaired antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis. This resistance was overcome by high doses of alkylating agents, including cyclophosphamide (CTX), which exhibited >80-fold in vivo synergy with Alemtuzumab. CTX induced ER stress in BM DHL cells leading to ATF4- mediated paracrine secretion of VEGF-A and massive macrophage infiltration. Macrophages from DHL-engrafted, CTX-treated mice had increased phagocytic capacity for lymphoma cells that was reversed by VEGF-A blockade and required SYK phosphorylation. A subset of these macrophages, defined by surface CD36/FcgRIV and a distinct transcriptional state, were “super- phagocytic.” Together, our findings define a unique mechanism through which high-dose alkylating agents can overcome therapy-resistant niches by ER stress-induced activation of phagocytosis.

Project description:MYC translocations are the biologic hallmark of Burkitt lymphomas but also occur in other mature B-cell lymphomas. If accompanied by chromosomal breaks targeting the BCL2 and/or BCL6 oncogenes, these MYC translocation-positive (MYC+) lymphomas are called double-hit lymphomas (DHLs); otherwise, the term single-hit lymphoma (SHL) is applied. In order to characterize the biologic features of these MYC+ lymphomas other than Burkitt lymphomas, we explored, after exclusion of molecular Burkitt lymphoma (mBL) as defined by gene expression profiling (GEP), the molecular, pathological and clinical aspects of 80 MYC translocation (MYC+) lymphomas (31 SHL, 26 BCL2+/MYC+, 14 BCL6+/MYC+, 6 BCL2+/BCL6+/MYC+ and 3 MYC+ lymphomas with unknown BCL6 status). Comparison of SHL and DHL revealed no difference in frequency of MYC partner (IG/non-IG), genomic complexity or MYC expression and no differences in GEP. DHL showed a more frequent GCB-like GEP and higher IGH and MYC mutation rates. GEP revealed 130 differentially expressed genes between BCL6+/MYC+ and BCL2+/MYC+ DHL. BCL2+/MYC+ DHL showed a more frequent GCB-like GEP. Analysis of all lymphomas according to MYC partner (IG/non-IG) revealed no substantial differences. In contrast to mBL and lymphomas without MYC break, SHL and DHL patients had similar poor outcome. Our data suggest that after excluding mBL, MYC+ lymphomas could be biologically widely lumped without further need for subclassification. 32 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma samples were hybridized to HG-U133A Affymetrix GeneChips. In addition, this study contains 30 already published samples, which contribute to GSE4475 (Hummel et al. 2006 (PMID 16760442)), as well as 18 already published samples from GSE22470 (Salaverria et al. 2011 (PMID 21487109)). No re-normalisation of the published samples was performed. The complete dataset representing: (1) the 32 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma Samples, (2) the 30 Samples from GSE4475 and (3) the 18 Samples from GSE22470, is linked below as a supplementary file
