Aberrant MYCN expression drives oncogenic hijacking of EZH2 as a transcriptional activator in peripheral T cell lymphoma [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a heterogeneous group of hematological cancers arising from the malignant transformation of mature T cells. In a cohort of 28 PTCL cases, we identified recurrent overexpression of MYCN, a member of the MYC family of oncogenic transcription factors. Approximately half of all PTCL cases was characterized by a MYC expression signature. Inducible expression of MYCN in lymphoid cells in a mouse model caused T cell lymphoma that recapitulated human PTCL with a MYC expression signature. Integration of mouse and human expression data identified EZH2 as a key downstream target of MYCN. Remarkably, EZH2 was found to be an essential co-factor for the transcriptional activation of the MYCN-driven gene expression program, which was independent of methyltransferase activity, but dependent on phosphorylation by CDK1. MYCN-driven T cell lymphoma was sensitive to EZH2 degradation or CDK1 inhibition, which displayed synergy with FDA-approved HDAC inhibitors.

EZH2 depletion potentiates MYC degradation inhibiting neuroblastoma and small cell carcinoma tumor formation

Project description:Efforts to therapeutically target EZH2 have generally focused on inhibition of its methyltransferase activity, although it remains less clear whether this is the central mechanism whereby EZH2 promotes cancer. We demonstrate that EZH2 directly interacts with both MYC family oncoproteins, MYC and MYCN, and promotes their stabilization in a methyltransferase-independent manner. By competing against the SCFFBW7 ubiquitin ligase to bind MYC and MYCN, EZH2 counteracted FBW7-mediated MYC(N) polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Depletion, but not enzymatic inhibition, of EZH2 induced robust MYC(N) degradation and inhibited tumor cell growth in MYC(N) driven neuroblastoma and small cell lung cancer. These findings unveil the MYC family proteins as global EZH2 oncogenic effectors and EZH2 pharmacologic degraders as potential MYC(N) targeted cancer therapeutics, pointing out that MYC(N) driven cancers may develop inherent resistance to the canonical EZH2 enzymatic inhibitors currently in clinical development.

Gene expression signatures delineate biological and prognostic subgroups in peripheral T-cell lymphoma

Project description:Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) encompasses a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with generally poor clinical outcome. Currently 50% of PTCL cases are not classifiable: PTCL-not otherwise specified (NOS). Gene-expression profiles on 372 PTCL cases were analyzed and robust molecular classifiers and oncogenic pathways that reflect the pathobiology of tumor cells and their microenvironment were identified for major PTCL-entities, including 114 angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), 31 anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive and 48 ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma, 14 adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and 44 extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma that were further separated into NK-cell and gdT-cell lymphomas. Thirty-seven percent of morphologically diagnosed PTCL-NOS cases were reclassified into other specific subtypes by molecular signatures. Reexamination, immunohistochemistry, and IDH2 mutation analysis in reclassified cases supported the validity of the reclassification. Two major molecular subgroups can be identified in the remaining PTCL-NOS cases characterized by high expression of either GATA3 (33%; 40/121) or TBX21 (49%; 59/121). The GATA3 subgroup was significantly associated with poor overall survival (P=.01). High expression of cytotoxic genesignaturewithin the TBX21 subgroup also showed poor clinical outcome (P=.05). InAITL, high expression of several signatures associated with the tumor microenvironment was significantly associated with outcome. A combined prognostic score was predictive of survival in an independent cohort (P=.004).

Expression data from Em-Myc mouse lymphomas

Project description:Ezh2 encodes for the catalyc unit of the PRC2 complex. RNAi-mediated suppressing of Ezh2 by two independent shRNAs promotes Em-myc lymphomagenesis in vivo. Microarray were used to explore the trascriptional changes driven by suppression of Ezh2 in Em-myc cells and to identify which programs contribute to promotion of lymphoma formation. RNA was extracted from purified primary lymphoma cells for each shRNAs targeting Ezh2 and from two independent preparations of premalignant Em-myc cells. Mouse Genome 1.0 ST arrays were processed according to the manifacturer`s instructions.

Minimal Genomic Instability and Increased Immune Activity Differentiate EBV-positive PTCL from ENKTL and PTCL NOS [GEP]

Project description:The molecular biology of the primary nodal EBV-positive variant of PTCL (PTCL-EBV) and its relationship with extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) remains poorly understood. In this study, we assessed the relationship between the three diseases using gene and EBV miRNA expression profiling, and copy number aberration (CNA) analyses and attempted to characterize the degree of genomic instability (GI). This series is the GEP data of 84 cases of FFPE NKTL samples and 4 cases of Lymph node controls.

Gene expression profiling of human peripheral T cell lymphoma cases vs. reactive lymph nodes

Project description:Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a very aggressive disease which currently lacks efficient targeted therapy. New therapeutic strategies are needed to improve the very poor outcome of these patients. However, little is known about the molecular pathogenesis of this disease. In this study, we performed a gene expression profiling analysis of a series of 38 PTCL cases in order to find deregulated pathways or genes that could become therapeutic agents for PTCL patients. 38 PTCL cases and 6 reactive lymph nodes were hybridized with the Universal Human Reference RNA (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA), which served as the reference sample.

Peripheral T-cell lymphoma: Molecular profiling recognizes subclasses and identifies prognostic markers

Project description:Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a clinically aggressive disease, with a poor response to therapy and a low overall survival rate of around 30% after 5 years. We have analyzed a series of 105 cases with a diagnosis of PTCL using a customized NanoString platform that includes 208 genes associated with T-cell differentiation, oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, deregulated pathways and stromal cell subpopulations. A comparative analysis of the various histological types of PTCL (angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, AITL; PTCL-with T follicular helper phenotype, PTCL-TFH; PTCL-not otherwise signified, PTCL-NOS) showed that specific sets of genes were associated with each of the diagnoses. These included TFH markers, cytotoxic markers and genes whose expression was a surrogate for specific cellular subpopulations, including follicular dendritic cells, mast cells and genes belonging to precise survival (NF-κB) and other pathways. Furthermore, the mutational profile was analyzed using a custom panel that targeted 62 genes in 76 cases distributed in AITL, PTCL-TFH and PTCL-NOS. The main differences between the three nodal PTCL classes involved the RHOAG17V mutations (p<0.0001), which were approximately twice as frequent in AITL (34.09%) as in PTCL-TFH (16.66%) cases, but were not detected in PTCL-NOS. A multivariate analysis identified gene sets that allowed the series of cases to be stratified into different risk groups. This study supports and validates the current division of PTCL into these three categories, identifies sets of markers that can be used for a more precise diagnosis, and recognizes the expression of B-cell genes as an IPI-independent prognostic factor for AITL.

Global gene expression changes in canine CD4+ peripheral T-cell lymphoma

Project description:We evaluate differential gene expression in 6 cases of canine CD4+ peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) compared to sorted CD4+ lymphocytes from the lymph nodes of healthy dogs.Lymph node aspirates from 6 dogs submited for routine diagnostics and diagnosed with CD4+ PTCL by flow cytometry were selected for RNA-seq. Patients were naïve to treatment at the time of sample submission. Aspirates from selected cases had a purity of greater than 88% neoplastic cells. Neoplastic cells were identified by the following immunophenotype: CD4+CD3+CD5+/-CD45+MHCIIlo. Hierarchical clustering of samples resulted in distinct separation of control lymphocytes and PTCL cases with intermixing of PTCL from Boxer and non-Boxer dogs. Top enriched pathways are involved in G-coupled protein receptor signaling, extracellular matrix remodeling and vascular development, inflammatory response and immune signaling, and mitotic activity. This study provides the global gene expression analysis of aggressive canine T-cell lymphoma using RNAsequencing.
