Controlled MLL-AF9 Expression in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Reveals MLL-AF9-specific Oncogene Program [hiMLLAF9_scRNAseq]

ABSTRACT: A t(9;11)(p22;q23) translocation produces the MLL-AF9 fusion protein, which is found in up to 25% of de novo AML cases in children. Despite major advances, obtaining a comprehensive under-standing of context-dependent MLL-AF9-mediated gene programs during early hematopoiesis is challenging. Here, we generated a human inducible pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) model with a doxycycline dose-dependent MLL-AF9 expression. We exploited MLL-AF9 expression as an onco-genic hit to uncover epigenetic and transcriptomic effects on iPSC-derived hematopoietic develop-ment and the transformation into (pre-)leukemic states. In doing so, we observed a disruption in early myelomonocytic development. Accordingly, we identified gene profiles that were consistent with primary MLL-AF9 AML and uncovered high-confidence MLL-AF9-associated core genes that are faithfully represented in primary MLL-AF9 AML, including known and presently unknown factors. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing, we identified an increase of CD34 expressing early hematopoietic progenitor-like cell states as well as granulocyte-monocyte progenitor-like cells upon MLL-AF9 activation. Our system allows for careful chemically controlled and stepwise in vitro hiPSC-derived differentiation under serum-free and feeder-free conditions. For a disease that cur-rently lacks effective precision medicine, our system provides a novel entry-point into exploring po-tential novel targets for personalized therapeutic strategies.

RNAi-mediated silencing of MLL-AF9 reveals leukemia-associated downstream targets and processes

Project description:The translocation t(9;11)(p22;q23) leading to the leukemogenic fusion gene MLL-AF9 is a frequent translocation in infant acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This study aimed to identify genes and molecular processes downstream of MLL-AF9 (alias MLL-MLLT3) which could assist to develop new targeted therapies for such leukemia with unfavorable prognosis. In the AML cell line THP1 which harbors this t(9;11) translocation, endogenous MLL-AF9 was silenced via siRNA while ensuring specificity of the knockdown and its efficiency on functional protein level. The differential gene expression profile was validated for leukemia-association by gene set enrichment analysis of published gene sets from patient studies and MLL-AF9 overexpression studies and revealed 425 differentially expressed genes. Gene ontology analysis was consistent with a more differentiated state of MLL-AF9 depleted cells, with involvement of a wide range of downstream transcriptional regulators and with defined functional processes such as ribosomal biogenesis, chaperone binding, calcium homeostasis and estrogen response. Besides potential new therapeutic targets, the described transcription profile shaped by MLL-AF9 provides an information source into the molecular processes altered in MLL aberrant leukemia.

Inducible MLL-AF9 expression drives an AML program during human pluripotent stem cell-derived hematopoietic differentiation [ATAC-Seq]

Project description:The t(9; 11) (p22; q23) translocation produces the MLL-AF9 fusion protein, which is found in up to 25% of de novo AML cases in children. Despite major advances, a comprehensive understanding of context-dependent MLL-AF9-mediated gene programs during early hematopoiesis is challenging. Here, we generated a human inducible pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) model with doxycycline dose-dependent MLL-AF9 expression. We exploit MLL-AF9 expression as an oncogenic hit to uncover epigenetic and transcriptomic effects on iPSC-derived hematopoietic development and the transformation into (pre-) leukemic states. In doing so, we observed disruption of early myelomonocytic development and expansion of a CD34+ early hematopoietic progenitor compartment upon MLL-AF9 activation. Indeed, we identified gene profiles consistent with primary MLL-AF9 AMLs. We exploit this system to uncover a highly confident MLL-AF9-associated gene core set that faithfully represent primary MLL-AF9 AMLs, including known and thus far unknown factors in MLL-AF9 AMLs. Our system allows for careful chemically controlled and stepwise in vitro iPSC-derived differentiation under serum-free and feeder-free conditions. For a disease that currently lacks effective treatments, our system provides a novel entry-point into exploring potential novel biomarkers and targets for personalized therapeutic strategies.

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.

RNA sequencing expression analysis of murine Tet-off MLL-AF9;NRAS acute myeloid leukemia cells over-expressing Id2 and upon MLL-AF9 withdrawal

Project description:We investigated the role of the transcriptional regulator Id2 in the context of MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Using an AML mouse model driven by tet-regulated MLL-AF9 co-expressed with oncogenic NRASG12D (Tet-off MLL-AF9), we demonstrated that MLL-AF9 regulates the E protein pathway by suppressing Id2, while activating the expression of its target E2-2. Moreover, we found that Id2 over-expression in Tet-Off MLL-AF9 AML cells in vitro partially phenocopies MLL-AF9 depletion and results inhibition of leukemia growth, loss of leukemia stem cell-associated gene expression pattern and induction of differentiation. To compare gene expression changes associated with enforced Id2 expression and MLL-AF9 withdrawal, RNA sequencing analysis was performed on Tet-off MLL-AF9 cells transduced with an Id2 over-expressing or a control vector, or upon MLL-AF9 dox-inducible knock-down. Primary AMLs driven by Tet-off inducible MLL/AF9 expression linked to dsRED reporter, in association with oncogenic NRASG12D (Tet-off MLL-AF9) were generated by reconstituting lethally irradiated congenic mice with foetal liver cells co-transduced with a Tet-Off-MLL-AF9-dRED retroviral vector and a second vector co-expressing NRASG12D together with the Tet-Off responsive transcriptional activator. RNA sequencing analysis sequencing analysis was performed on Tet-Off MLL-AF9/dsRED+ AML cells treated in vitro with doxycycline (DOX) for 4 days to inactivate MLL-AF9 expression or left untreated (UT). For the Id2 over-expression experiment, Tet-Off MLL-AF9/dsRED+ AML cells were transduced in vitro with an Id2-GFP or a control-GFP retroviral vector. Viable GFP-positive cells were FACS-sorted 2 days after transduction and used for RNA sequencing analysis.

RNA-seq profiling of murine Tet-off MLL-AF9; NRAS acute myeloid leukemia at different timepoints upon doxycycline-induced MLL-AF9 down-regulation.

Project description:Using an acute myeloid leukemia (AML) mouse model driven by tet-regulated MLL-AF9 (fusion between the gene MLL1 (KMT2A/MLL) and MLLT3 (AF9)) co-expressed with oncogenic NRASG12D (Tet-off MLL-AF9), we investigated the effect of modulating the expression of the MLL-AF9 fusion oncogene on the transcriptome and proteome of established murine AML. Treatment in vitro or in vivo of these Tet-off MLL-AF9 AMLs with doxycycline (DOX) results in the efficient down-regulation of the expression of the driver oncogene MLL-AF9. RNA sequencing analysis was performed on primary Tet-Off MLL-AF9 AML cells obtained from the spleen of leukemic animals and cultured in vitro for either 2 or 4 days in the presence of doxycycline (1μg/ml) (DOX= down-regulation of MLL-AF9) or left untreated (UT).
