Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease and reliable detection of leukemic stem cells (LSCs) across genetic subclasses has proven difficult. We aimed to transcriptionally characterize LSCs specifically in monocyte-like AML (Mono-AML) and and primitive-like AML (Prim-AML) samples using cell surface markers. We used CD64+CD11b+ to define Mature blasts and labelled the rest as Immature. To further enrich for LSC-like cells in the Immature blasts in both Mono- and Prim-AML samples, we included GPR56, a marker for LSCs. We performed RNA sequencing on the FACS-sorted LSC-like and Mature cells from 23 AML patients.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a pivotal role in the regulation of hematopoiesis and development of leukemia. Great interest emerged in modulating miRNA expression for therapeutic purposes. In order to identify miRNAs, which specifically suppress leukemic growth of AML with t(8;21), inv(16) or MLL-rearrangement by inducing differentiation, we conducted a miRNA expression profiling in a cohort of 90 cytogenetically characterized, de novo pediatric AML cases. Four miRNAs, specifically downregulated in MLL-rearranged, t(8;21) or inv(16) AMLs, were characterized by their tumor suppressive properties in cell lines representing those respective cytogenetic groups. Among those, forced expression of miR-9 reduced leukemic growth and induced monocytic differentiation of t(8;21) AML cell lines in vitro and in vivo. The tumor suppressive functions of miR-9 were specifically restricted to AML cell lines and primary leukemic blasts with t(8;21). On the other hand, these functions were not evident in AML blasts from patients with MLL-rearrangements. We showed that miR-9 exerts its effects through the cooperation with let-7 to repress the oncogenic LIN28B/HMGA2 axis. Thus, miR-9 is a tumor suppressor-miR which acts in a stringent cell context-dependent manner. In order to identify miRNAs, which specifically suppress leukemic growth of AML with t(8;21) (n=21), inv(16) (n=17) or MLL-rearrangement (n=35) by inducing differentiation, we conducted a miRNA expression profiling in a cohort of 90 cytogenetically characterized, de novo pediatric AML cases, which also included 12 t(15;17) and 5 t(7;12) samples.

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.

Project description:Despite significant efforts to improve therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), clinical outcomes remain poor. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate the development and maintenance of leukemic stem cells (LSC) is important to reveal new therapeutic opportunities. We have identified CD97, a member of the adhesion class of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), as a frequently upregulated antigen of AML blasts that is a critical regulator of blast function. High levels of CD97 correlate with poor prognosis, and silencing of CD97 reduces disease aggressiveness in vivo. In order to analyze the functional pathways associated with CD97 expression, we generated RNA-sequence data from scrambled shRNA transfected (s-shRNA) and CD97 KD human AML cell line HL60, as well as from MLL-AF9 (MA9) transduced GMPs isolated from CD97-/- and WT mice. These phenotypes are due to CD97’s function to promote proliferation, survival, and the maintenance of the undifferentiated state in leukemic blasts. Collectively, our data credential CD97 as a promising therapeutic target on LSCs in AML.

Project description:Emerging evidence supports that MBD2, a DNA methylation reader, often participated in the transcriptional silencing of hypermethylated genes in cancer cells. Nevertheless, the role of MBD2 in AML remains elusive. Herein, by using MLL-AF9 murine model and human AML cell line, we observed that loss of MBD2 could delay the initiation and propagation of leukemia through serial transplantation experiments. MBD2 depletion significantly reduced the leukemia burden by decreasing the frequency of leukemic stem cells (LSCs), coupled with inhibiting leukemia proliferation, thereby allowing leukemia blasts develop to a more mature state reflecting normal myelopoiesis. Both gene expression analyses and bioinformatic studies revealed that MBD2 negatively modulated the genes related to myeloid differentiation and was necessary to sustain MLL-AF9 oncogenic induced gene programs. We further demonstrated that MBD2 could promote LSC cell cycle progression through epigenetic regulation of CDKN1C transcription by binding to its promoter region. Taken together, our data suggested that MBD2 promotes AML development and could be a therapeutic target of myeloid malignancies.

Project description:The histone 3 lysine 79 (H3K79) methyltransferase Dot1l has been implicated in the development of leukemias bearing translocations that involve the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene. We identified the MLL-fusion targets in a murine MLL-AF9 leukemia model, and conducted epigenetic profiling for H3K79me2, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K36me3. Histone methylation patterns are highly abnormal on MLL-AF9 fusion target loci, defining a distinct epigenetic lesion involving H3K79. Conditional inactivation of Dot1l leads to specific down-regulation of direct MLL-AF9 targets and an MLL-translocation associated gene expression signature, while global transcription levels remain largely unaffected. This correlated with a greater sensitivity of leukemic blasts towards loss of Dot1l compared to normal hematopoietic cells. Development of in vivo leukemia was absolutely dependent on Dot1l. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by Solexa sequencing for H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H3K36me3, H3K79me2 and biotinylated MLL-AF9 in HSC, GMP and LSC.

Project description:Understanding the contribution of abnormal genetic and epigenetic programs to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is necessary for the integrated design of targeted therapies. To investigate this, we determined the effect of epigenetic reprogramming on leukemic behavior by generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from AML patient samples harboring MLL rearrangements. AML-derived iPSCs (AML-iPSCs) retained leukemic mutations, but reset leukemic DNA methylation/gene expression patterns and lacked leukemic potential. However, when differentiated into hematopoietic cells, AML-iPSCs reacquired the ability to give rise to leukemia in vivo and reestablished leukemic methylation/gene expression patterns, including an aberrant MLL signature, indicating that epigenetic reprogramming was insufficient to eliminate leukemic behavior. In one case, we identified distinct AML-iPSC KRAS mutant and wildtype subclones that demonstrated differential growth properties and therapeutic susceptibilities, predicting KRAS wildtype clonal relapse due to increased cytarabine resistance. Increased cytarabine resistance was further observed in a cohort of KRAS wildtype MLL-rearranged AML samples, demonstrating the utility of AML-iPSCs in predicting subclonal relapse and facilitating clonal targeting in AML.
