Mutant ACVR1 Arrests Glial Cell Differentiation to Drive Tumorigenesis in Pediatric Gliomas

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of targeting the Acvr1G328V mutation to oligoendrocyte lineage cells, on gene expression in the brainstem of mice at postnatal day 7 Methods: Total RNA was extracted from the brainstem of postnatal day 7 Acvr1+/+;Olig2Cre/+ and Acvr1floxG328V/+;Olig2Cre/+ littermates, processed using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Sample Preparation kit, and subjected to deep sequencing. Results: A total of 247 genes were differentially expressed between the genotypes, with a corrected p value of less than 0.05. Of these genes, 125 were upregulated while 122 were downregulated. Many of the most downregulated genes were mature oligodendrocyte markers, while several genes that control oligodendrocyte progenitor formation and function were upregulated. Conclusions: The Acvr1G328V mutation causes differentiation arrest of oligodendroglial lineage cells.

RNAseq of nestin-expressing murine brainstem progenitors infected with ACVR1 WT or R206H ACVR1 with and without H3.1K27M

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an incurable pediatric brain tumor, resulting in the death of 200-300 children each year in the United States. Recently it was discovered that approximately 25% of all DIPG cases harbor activating mutations in ACVR1, a gene that encodes Activin A receptor (ALK2), a receptor in the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway, and that DIPGs with ALK2 mutations commonly harbor an H3.1K27M mutation. Herein, we used the RCAS/TVA retroviral system to study the effects of ACVR1 mutations and H3.1K27M on DIPG pathogenesis. In vitro expression of R206H ACVR1 with and without H3.1K27M in nestin-expressing brainstem progenitors resulted in upregulation of mesenchymal markers and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed Stat3 pathway activation. Neonatal expression of ACVR1 R206H or G328V in combination with H3.1K27M and p53 deletion in nestin-expressing brainstem progenitors induced glioma-like lesions expressing mesenchymal markers with Stat3 activation but was not sufficient for full gliomagenesis. In combination with platelet-derived growth factor A (PDGFA) signaling, ACVR1 R206H and H3.1K27M significantly decreased survival and increased tumor incidence. We demonstrate that targeting the BMP signaling pathway may be an effective therapeutic strategy to treat ACVR1 R206H mutant DIPGs. Exogenous Noggin expression at tumor initiation significantly increased tumor latency and treatment of ACVR1 R206H mutant murine DIPGs with LDN212854, an ACVR1 inhibitor, significantly prolonged their survival. We confirm relevance of our model to the human disease as human DIPG models with ACVR1 mutations were also sensitive to treatment with LDN212854 in vitro. Altogether, our studies demonstrate that ACVR1 R206H and H3.1K27M promote tumor initiation, accelerate gliomagenesis, promote a mesenchymal profile in part due to Stat3 activation, and identify LDN212854 as a promising compound to treat children with DIPG.

Multi-omic analysis of cell-of-origin and epigenomic state in pediatric H3K27M gliomas (scRNA-Seq)

Project description:Canonical (H3.1/H3.2) and noncanonical (H3.3) histone 3 K27M-mutant gliomas have unique spatiotemporal distributions, partner alterations, and molecular profiles. The contribution of the cell-of-origin to these differences has been challenging to uncouple from the oncogenic reprogramming induced by the mutation. Here, we perform an integrated analysis of 116 tumors, including single-cell transcriptome and chromatin accessibility, 3D chromatin architecture and epigenomic profiles, and show that K27M-mutant gliomas faithfully maintain chromatin configuration at developmental genes consistent with anatomically distinct oligodendrocyte-precursor-like cells (OPC). H3.3K27M thalamic gliomas map to prosomere 2-derived lineages. In turn, H3.1K27M ACVR1-mutant pontine gliomas uniformly mirror early ventral NKX6-1+/SHH-dependent brainstem OPCs, while H3.3K27M gliomas frequently resemble dorsal PAX3+/BMP-dependent progenitors. Our data suggest a context-specific vulnerability in H3.1K27M-mutant SHH-dependent ventral OPCs, which rely on acquisition of ACVR1 mutations to drive aberrant BMP signaling required for oncogenesis. The unifying action of K27M mutations is to restrict H3K27me3 at PRC2 landing sites, while other epigenetic changes are mainly contingent on the cell-of-origin chromatin state and cycling rate.

ACVR1-mutant posterior fossa ependymoma

Project description:Genomewide DNA methylation array profiling of nine posterior fossa ependymomas harboring activating mutations in ACVR1. Two samples clustered with the PFA subtype and demonstrated H3K27me3 loss by immunohistochemistry, while the remaining 7 showed retained H3K27me3 and formed a methylation cluster distinct from other ependymal tumors. For these previsouly unpublished cases, the Illumina Infinium EPIC 850k Human DNA Methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpG sites of genomic DNA extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissue.
