Expression of HOXB genes is significantly different in acute myeloid leukemia with a partial tandem duplication of MLL vs. a MLL translocation: a cross-laboratory study

ABSTRACT: In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene may be rearranged to generate a partial tandem duplication (PTD), or fused to partner genes through a chromosomal translocation (tMLL). In this study, we first explored the differentially expressed genes between MLL-PTD and tMLL using gene expression profiling of our cohort (15 MLL-PTD and 10 tMLL) and one published data set. The top 250 probes were chosen from each set, resulting in 29 common probes (21 unique genes) to both sets. The selected genes include four HOXB genes, HOXB2, B3, B5, and B6. The expression values of these HOXB genes significantly differ between MLL-PTD and tMLL cases. Clustering and classification analyses were thoroughly conducted to support our gene selection results. Second, as MLL-PTD, FLT3-ITD, and NPM1 mutations are identified in AML with normal karyotypes, we briefly studied their impact on the HOXB genes. Another contribution of this study is to demonstrate that using public data from other studies enriches samples for analysis and yields more conclusive results.

MLL-PTD and RUNX1-knockout cooperate to induce MDS phenotypes

Project description:The MLL-PTD mutation is found in patients with MDS and AML, and not in other hematological malignancies. Previously, we showed that Mll-PTD knock-in heterozygous mice (MllPTD/WT mice) present with several MDS-associated features. However, these phenotypes are insufficient to constitute bona fide MDS. MllPTD/WT mice do not generate MDS or AML in primary or transplant recipient mice. This suggests that additional genetic and/or epigenetic defects are necessary for transformation to MDS or AML. In secondary AML and de novo AML, MLL-PTD mutation is significantly associated with mutations in RUNX1 and with the FLT3-ITD mutations. In fact, the combination of MLL-PTD with the FLT3-ITD allele leads to AML in mice. We combined the MLL-PTD with RUNX1 mutant proteins, in order to generate a new mouse model for MDS. We generated MllPTD/WT/Runx1Flox/Flox/Mx1-Cre mice to model loss-of-function RUNX1 mutations. To test the significance of HIF-1α in this model, we also generated MllPTD/WT/Runx1Flox/Flox/Hif-1αFlox/Flox/Mx1-Cre mice and genetically eliminated Hif-1α expression. We analyzed gene expression variations in the HSPCs comparing the MllPTD/WT/Runx1∆/∆ with or without HIF-1α abrogation.

The long non-coding RNA HOXB-AS3 regulates ribosomal RNA transcription in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:In this work we dissect the functional role of the HOXB-AS3 long non coding RNA in patients with NPM1-mutated (NPM1mut) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We show that HOXB-AS3 regulates the proliferative capacity of NPM1mut AML blasts in vitro and in vivo. HOXB-AS3 was found to interact with the ErbB3-binding protein 1 (EBP1) and guide EBP1 to the ribosomal DNA locus. Via this mechanism HOXB-AS3 regulates ribosomal RNA transcription and de novo protein synthesis. We propose that in the context of NPM1 mutations, HOXB-AS3 overexpression acts as a compensatory mechanism, which allows adequate protein production in leukemic blasts.

H3K4me3 ChIP-Seq analysis of LSKs isolated from WT and Mll-PTD knock-in heterozygous mice

Project description:The MLL-PTD mutation is found in patients with MDS and AML, and not in other haematological malignancies. Previously, we showed that Mll-PTD knock-in heterozygous mice present with several MDS-associated features, such as increased self-renewal and apoptosis in HSPCs, expansion of the myeloid progenitor population, ineffective haematopoiesis, and skewed myeloid differentiation. MLL is an epigenetic regulator: its C-terminal Su[var]3–9, enhancer of zeste, trithorax (SET) domain has methyltransferase activity on lysine 4 on histone 3 (H3K4), which is retained in the MLL-PTD mutant. To clarify the effects of MLL-PTD on target gene regulation, we performed H3K4me3 ChIP-Seq analysis of LSKs isolated from WT and Mll-PTD knock-in heterozygous mice.

POLR2M-mediated paused transcription silences tumor suppressor MIR139 in MLL-AF9 AML

Project description:MIR139 is a critical tumor suppressor and commonly silenced in human cancer, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we found that depletion of identified MIR139 targets affects AML outgrowth. We unraveled the mechanism of MIR139 gene inactivation in AML expressing the Mixed-Lineage Leukemia (MLL)-AF9 oncogene. Epigenetic analyses revealed two well-conserved putative enhancer regions in close proximity of transcriptional start sites (TSS) of MIR139. These regions were silenced by the Polycomb-Repressive Complex-2 (PRC2) downstream of MLL-AF9. Genomic deletion of these regions abolished MIR139 transcriptional regulation in normal and oncogenic conditions. Genome-wide knockout screens revealed the transcriptional pausing factor of RNA Polymerase-II, POLR2M, as a critical MIR139-silencing factor. Furthermore, direct POLR2M binding to the MIR139 TSS induced paused transcription, which was abrogated upon PRC2 inhibition. We present evidence for an oncogenic POLR2M-mediated MIR139 silencing mechanism, downstream of MLL-AF9 and PRC2. Together, our findings highlight the importance of POLR2M-mediated paused transcription in AML.

The role of Gaq in MLL leukemogenesis

Project description:Beta-catenin has a central role for self-renewal of leukemic stem cells in Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL)-arranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML), however its upstream modulators that can enhance this pathway remain largely unexplored. Through genome-wide gene expression analysis, we identified a previously unknown role for the G protein Gaq in MLL-arranged AML. Inhibition of Gaq reduces the level of active beta-catenin expression and impairs the maintenance of MLL-rearranged AML. Our microarray analysis uncovers a novel functional role for Gaq in leukemia maintenance. GFP-positive leukemic cells flow-sorted by BD Influxâ¢ cell sorter from bone marrow of the primary AML mice induced by MLL-AF9 oncogene were lentivirally transduced with Gaq shRNA (TRCN0000295412, Sigma) or Scrambled control (SHC016, Sigma), and replated in methylcellulose supplemented with IL3. Each group contains triplicate samples.

The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor SHARP1 is an oncogenic driver in MLL-AF6 Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with MLL gene rearrangements demonstrate unique gene expression profiles driven by MLL-fusion proteins. Here, we identify the circadian clock transcription factor SHARP1 as a novel oncogenic target in MLL-AF6 AML, which has the worst prognosis among all subtypes of MLL rearranged AMLs. SHARP1 is expressed solely in MLL-AF6 AML, and its expression is regulated directly by MLL-AF6 / DOT1L. Suppression of SHARP1 induces robust apoptosis of human MLL-AF6 AML cells. Genetic deletion in mice delays the development of leukemia and attenuated leukemia-initiating potential, while sparing normal hematopoiesis. Mechanistically, SHARP1 binds to transcriptionally active chromatin across the genome and activates genes critical for cell survival as well as key oncogenic targets of MLL-AF6. Our findings demonstrate the unique oncogenic role for SHARP1 in MLL-AF6 AML.

Transcription profiling of human MLL-AF10 myeloid leukemia cellular subsets

Project description:Leukemia cells from mice with MLL-AF10 AML were fractionated into separate sub-populations on the basis of c-kit expression, which correlates with MLL LSC frequency (Somervaille and Cleary, 2006). The sorted AML sub-populations exhibited substantial differences in their frequencies of AML CFCs/LSCs (mean 14-fold) and morphologic features, consistent with a leukemia cell hierarchy with maturation through to terminally differentiated neutrophils. Experiment Overall Design: Leukemic splenocytes from four mice with MLL-AF10 AML were sub-fractionated in to c-kit high and c-kit negative sub-populations by FACS.

shRNA profiling of human MLL cells reveals HOXA9 is required for survival in human MLL rearranged acute leukemias

Project description:Leukemias that harbor translocations involving the mixed lineage leukemia gene (MLL) possess unique biological characteristics and often have an unfavorable prognosis. Gene expression analyses demonstrate a distinct profile for MLL-rearranged leukemias with consistent high-level expression of select Homeobox genes including HOXA9. Here, we investigated the effects of HOXA9 suppression in MLL-rearranged and MLL-germline leukemias utilizing RNAi. Gene expression profiling after HOXA9 suppression demonstrated co-downregulation of a program highly expressed in human MLL-AML (this study) and murine MLL-leukemia (Krivtsov et al. 2006) stem cells including HOXA10, MEIS1, PBX3 and MEF2C. Our data indicates an important role for HOXA9 in human MLL-rearranged leukemias, and suggests targeting HOXA9 or downstream programs may be a novel therapeutic option. Experiment Overall Design: RNA was purified from t(9;11) MOLM-14 AML cells 44h after transduction in triplicates with 2 of the two most effective HOXA9shRNA constructs (3 x 1F3-HOXA9shRNA; 3 x 2A5-HOXA9shRNA) or GFP-controlshRNA (6x).
