Myelodysplastic Syndrome-associated TET2/IDH mutations in Natural Killer cells disrupt their anti-tumor activity

ABSTRACT: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal hematopoietic disorders, representing high risk of progression to acute myeloid leukaemia, and frequently associated to somatic mutations, notably in the epigenetic regulator TET2. Natural Killer (NK) cells play a role in the anti-leukemic immune response via their cytolytic activity. Here we show that patients with MDS clones harbouring mutations in the TET2 gene are characterised by phenotypic defects in their circulating NK cells. Remarkably, NK cells and MDS clones from the same patient share the TET2 genotype, and the NK cells are characterised by increased methylation of genomic DNA and reduced expression of Killer Immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR), perforin, and TNF-α. In vitro inhibition of TET2 in NK cells of healthy donors reduces their cytotoxicity, supporting its critical role in NK cell function. Conversely, NK cells from patients treated with azacytidine (#NCT02985190; https://clinicaltrials.gov/) show increased KIR and cytolytic protein expression, and IFN-γ production. Altogether, our findings show that, in addition to their oncogenic consequences in the myeloid cell subsets, TET2 mutations contribute to repressing NK-cell function in MDS patients.

Proteomic analysis of NK3.3-derived extracellular vesicles

Project description:Our study investigates the features and anti-tumor function of extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from our well described NK cell line - NK3.3 - the only published clonal, normal human cell line to date. Natural killer (NK) cells, critical for proper immune function, destroy tumor cells primarily through the release of granules containing potent cytolytic molecules. NK cells also release these molecules within membrane-bound exosomes and microvesicles collectively known as EVs. We show that NK3.3 EVs contain the cytolytic molecules perforin, granzymes A and B, and granulysin, and an array of common EV proteins. We previously showed that the E3 ubiquitin ligase identified by our laboratory, natural killer lytic-associated molecule (NKLAM/RNF19b), is localized to NK granules and is essential for maximal NK killing; our current study shows NKLAM situated within the NK3.3 EV membrane. Analysis of NK3.3 EV contents also identified multiple RNA species including miRNAs associated with anti-tumor activity. We demonstrate that treatment of an array of hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic tumor cell lines with NK3.3 EVs inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis and cell death while leaving normal cells unaffected. Taken together, our study suggests that NK3.3 EVs have the potential to be effective immunotherapeutic agents.

Affymetrix SNP6.0 microarray data - Myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:Mutations in the TET2 gene are frequent in myeloid disease, although their biological and prognostic significance remains unclear. We analyzed 355 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes using ‘Next-Generation’ sequencing (NGS) for TET2 aberrations; 91 of whom were also subjected to SNP6 array karyotyping. Seventy-one TET2 mutations, with a relative mutation abundance (RMA) ≥10%, were identified in 39 of 320 (12%) MDS and 16 of 35 (46%) CMML patients (p<0.001). Interestingly, 4 patients had multiple mutations likely to exist as independent clones or on alternate alleles, suggestive of clonal evolution. ‘Deeper’ sequencing of 96 patient samples identified 4 additional mutations (RMA 3%-6.3%). Importantly, TET2 mutant clones were also found in T cells in addition to CD34+ and total bone-marrow cells (23.5%, 38.5% and 43% RMA respectively). Only 20% of the TET2-mutated patients showed loss of heterozygosity at the TET2 locus. There was no difference in the frequency of genome-wide aberrations, TET2 expression or the JAK2V617F 46/1 haplotype between TET2-mutated and non-mutated patients. There was no significant prognostic association between TET2 mutations and WHO subtypes, IPSS score, cytogenetic status, or transformation to AML. On multivariate analysis, age (>50yrs) was associated with a higher incidence of TET2 mutation (p=0.02). Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from bone marrow or peripheral blood samples. Copy number and acquired UPD analysis of Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays was performed for 91 cases with Myelodysplastic syndromes.

Decidual NK cells Xiong et al 2013

Project description:Receptors of the KIR family on maternal Natural Killer cells in the decidua are believed to bind to Ligands such as HLA-C on trophoblast cells invading into the decidua from the placenta during early pregnancy. The resulting responses regulate the extent of trophoblast invasion. Genetic studies have implicated two members of the KIR family in particular as playing an important role: KIR2DL1 and KIR2DS1. The aim of this experiment was to determine what responses are generated when decidual NK cells bearing either KIR2DL1 or KIR2DS1 engage their HLA-C ligand.

Treatment of human K562 chronic myelogenous leukemia cells with NK3.3-derived extracellular vesicles

We demonstrate that treatment of an array of hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic tumor cell lines with NK3.3 EVs inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis and cell death while leaving normal cells unaffected. The anti-tumor effects of NK3.3EVs were evaluated via proteomic analysis of K562 leukemia cells treated with NK3.3-derived EVs compared to treatment with non-cytotoxic HEK293 cell-derived EVs or PBS. The results of this analysis suggest strong inhibitory regulation of cell cycle- and cell survival-associated proteins. Taken together, our study suggests that NK3.3 EVs have the potential to be effective immunotherapeutic agents.

TET2 deficiency promotes MDS-associated leukemogenesis

Project description:Loss of function TET2 mutations are frequently seen in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients. Previous studies have demonstrated that TET2 deficiency enhances maintenance of MDS hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Nonetheless, the pathogenic role of TET2 in MDS progression remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate Tet2 knockout (KO) markedly accelerated malignant transformation in Nup98-HoxD13 (NHD13) transgenic mice and promotes leukemogenesis of HoxA9 transduction/transplant mice. Consistently, low TET2 level cooperating with high HOXA9 level predicts poor outcome of MDS patients. Notably, Tet2 KO conferred a clonal advantage to the HSPCs of NHD13 mice. Whole-exome sequencing revealed that Tet2 KO facilitates accumulation of mutations at genes associated with leukemogenesis, including Arih2, whose loss of function promotes MDS cells proliferation. Using 5-hydroxymethylcytosine immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing analysis, we found while Tet2 deletion decreased overall 5hmC levels, it also increased 5hmC distribution at certain mutation loci such as Arih2. Vitamin C treatment, which mimics Tet2/Tet3 restoration, blocked disease progression in Tet2-deficient NHD13 mice. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that TET2 activity governs occurrence of secondary mutations in MDS HSPCs, providing a rationale for enhancing TETs function to block MDS-malignant transformation.

Acquired mutations in TET2 are common in myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a heterogeneous group of neoplastic hematopoietic disorders. Several recurrent chromosomal aberrations have been associated with MDS, but the genes affected have remained largely unknown. To identify relevant genetic lesions involved in the pathogenesis of MDS, we performed SNP-array-based genomic profiling and genomic sequencing in 102 patients. We identified acquired deletions, missense and nonsense mutations in a new gene, TET2, in 26% of MDS patients. Using allele-specific assays, TET2 mutations were shown to be present in the majority of the myeloid cells (56-100%, median 96%). In addition, the mutations were encountered in various lineages of differentiation including CD34+ progenitor cells, suggesting that TET2 mutations occur early during disease evolution. In healthy tissues TET2 expression was shown to be elevated in hematopoietic cells with highest expression in granulocytes, in line with a function in myelopoiesis. We conclude that TET2 is the most frequently mutated gene in MDS known so far.

PLZF expression maps the early stages of ILC1 lineage development

Project description:Diverse populations of natural killer cells, which exert critical early cytolytic functions against virally infected cells, have recently been uncovered, raising issues of lineage relationships. We used expression of the transcription factor PLZF to identify the developmental intermediates of ILC1s, a subset of natural killer-like cells that are particularly abundant in the liver, and demonstrated a distinct precursor but parallel development and partial overlap with established classical NK stages. Using microarray analysis, we defined a set of PLZF-dependent genes that contributed to the lineage divergence between ILC1s and classical NK cells. Liver lymphocytes from pools of PLZF+/+ or PLZF-/- mice were sorted into ILC1s and cNKs for RNA isolation and Illumina expression profiling.
