Mll1 in T follicular helper cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: T follicular helper (TFH) cells are essential for developing protective antibody responses following vaccination. Greater understanding of the genetic program leading to TFH differentiation is needed. Chromatin modifications are central in the control of gene expression. However, detailed knowledge of how chromatin regulators (CRs) regulate differentiation of TFH cells is limited. We screened a large shRNA library targeting all known CRs in mouse and identified the histone methyltransferase Mll1 as a positive regulator of TFH differentiation. Loss of Mll1 expression reduced formation of TFH cells following acute viral infection or protein immunization. In addition, expression of the TFH lineage-defining transcription factor Bcl6 was reduced in the absence of Mll1. Transcriptomics analysis identified Lef1 and Tcf7 as genes dependent on Mll1 for their expression, which provides one mechanism for the regulation of TFH differentiation by Mll1. Taken together, CRs such as Mll1 substantially influence TFH differentiation.

Project description:The goal of this study is to determine the impact of Tcf1 and Lef1 deficiency on T follicular helper (Tfh) cells elicited by protein immunization. We demonstrate that although phenotypic Tcf1/Lef1-deficient Tfh cells were able to develop in response to vaccination, they are functionally impaired. Mechanisc studies reveal the direct regulatory effect by Tcf1 and Lef1 on transcriptome and chromatin accessibility in vaccine-elicited Tfh cells.

ICOS-mediated inactivation of the FOXO1 transcription factor in the differentiation of T follicular helper cells

Project description:T follicular helper (Tfh) cells constitute an essential cell type in the induction of antibodies. We report that CD4 T cells lacking Foxo1 almost uniformly became CXCR5int Tfh cells following immunization. Moreover, a Foxo1 loss-of-function complemented an Icos mutation allowing the appearance of Tfh cells along with follicular, class-switched B cells and IgG isotype anti-DNA antibodies. Similarly, FOXO1 deficient Tfh differentiation displayed a substantially reduced dependence on ICOSL. Functional and molecular analyses show that FOXO1 regulates Tfh differentiation through a broad program of gene expression exemplified by positive regulation of Icos and negative regulation of Bcl6. These results demonstrate that a key step in Tfh differentiation is the ICOS-initiated activation of the PI3K-AKT pathway resulting in the inactivation of FOXO1. Performed ChIP-seq analysis to examine the role of foxo1 in the development of Tfh cells

MLL1 promotes IL-7 responsiveness and survival during B cell differentiation

Project description:B-lymphocyte differentiation is an exquisitely regulated homeostatic process resulting in continuous production of appropriately selected B cells. Relatively small changes in gene expression can result in deregulation of this process, leading acute lymphocytic leukemia, immune deficiency or autoimmunity. Translocation of Mll1 (Kmt2a) often results in a pro-B cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL), but little is known about its role in normal B cell differentiation. Using a Rag1-cre knock-in to selectively delete Mll1 in developing lymphocytes, we show that B-cell, but not T-cell homeostasis depends on MLL1. Mll1-/- B progenitors fail to differentiate efficiently through the pro- to pre-B cell transition, resulting in a persistent reduction in B cell populations. Cells inefficiently transit the pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) checkpoint, despite normal to higher levels of pre-BCR components and rearranged IgH expression fails to rescue this differentiation block. Instead of IgH rearrangement defects, we find that Mll1-/- pre-B cells exhibit attenuated RAS/MAPK signaling downstream of the pre-BCR, resulting in reduced survival in physiologic levels of IL-7. Genome-wide expression data illustrate that MLL1 is connected to B-cell differentiation and IL-7-dependent survival through a complex transcriptional network. Overall, our data demonstrate that wild type MLL1 is a regulator of pre-BCR signaling and B-cell differentiation, and further suggest that targeting its function in B-ALL may be more broadly effective than previously anticipated.

Expression analysis on Mll1+/+ and Mll1-/- MEFs

Project description:Global analysis of H3K4 methylation defines MLL family member targets and points to a role for MLL1-mediated H3K4 methylation in the regulation of transcriptional initiation by RNA polymerase II A common landmark of activated genes is the presence of trimethylation on lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4) at promoter regions. The Set1/COMPASS was the founding member and the only H3K4 methylases in S. cerevisiae, however, in mammals at least six H3K4 methylases Set1A/B and MLL1-4 are found in COMPASS-like complexes capable of methylating H3K4. To gain further insight into the different roles and functional targets for the H3K4 methylases, we have undertaken a genome-wide analysis of H3K4 methylation pattern in wild-type Mll1+/+ and Mll1-/- mouse fibroblasts (MEFs). We found that Mll1 is required for the H3K4 trimethylation of less than 5% of promoters carrying this modification. Many of these genes, which include developmental regulators such as Hox genes show decreased levels of RNA polymerase II recruitment and expression concomitant with the loss of H3K4 methylation. Although Mll1 is only required for the methylation of a subset of Hox genes, Menin, a component of the Mll1 and Mll2 complexes, is required for the overwhelming majority of H3K4 methylation at Hox loci. However, the loss of MLL3/4 and/or the Set1 complexes have little to no effect on the Hox loci H3K4 methylation or expression levels in these MEFs. Together these data provide insight into redundancy and specialization of COMPASS-like complexes in mammals and provide evidence on a possible role for Mll1-mediated H3K4 methylation in the regulation of transcriptional initiation. Expression arrays were done with Mll1+/+ and Mll1-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Four replicates were done (dyes were swapped). DNA was hybridized to Agilent Mouse Whole Genome Expression Arrays (4x44k).

The transcriptome analysis of Treg subset

Project description:The transcriptome analysis of WT and Tcf7/Lef1 double knockout (dKO) Treg subset CD4+ Foxp3+ T regulatory (Treg) cells are key players in preventing lethal autoimmunity and deleterious tissue inflammation. To fulfill these roles, Treg cells undergo activation and differentiate processes to acquire diverse functional properties. However, how Treg’s functional specifications are regulated during their differentiation remains poorly understood. Here we show that two TCF/LEF family transcription factors (TFs), TCF1 and LEF1 act redundantly as checkpoint regulators in peripheral Treg homeostatic differentiation and functional subset specification. We find that gradient expression of TCF1 and LEF1 distinguishes Treg cells into three distinct subsets. Sustained expression of TCF1/LEF1 retains Treg at their resting stage. Conversely, conditional knockout of TCF1 and LEF1 promotes the effector-like phenotype in bulk Treg cells, but surprisingly renders the mice susceptible to early onset of systemic autoimmunity. This uncoupling between Treg effector phenotype and their function in suppressing autoimmunity is attributed by two TCF1/LEF1-centered mechanisms. First, the ablation of TCF1 and LEF1 in Treg cells abolishes the generation of T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells, leading to unrestrained T follicular helper (Tfh) and germinal center B cell responses. Second, TCF1 and LEF1 are required for Treg survival under competitive conditions. Thus, TCF1 and LEF1 play critical roles in Treg homeostatic maintenance and Tfr generation.

MLL1 regulates cytokine-driven cell migration and metastasis

Project description:The interaction between MLL1 And Menin controls cancer cell proliferation, migration, and tumor progression. MLL1 depletion reduced 3D cell migration in vitro and led to lesser metastatic burden and prolonged survival in vivo. Mechanistically, MLL1-Menin interaction controls actin filament assembly and protrusion generation through IL-6-pSTAT3-Arp3 axis. MLL1-Menin interaction also controls TGF-β1-mediated acto-myosin contractility via Gli2-ROCK1/2-pMLC2 axis. Additionally, MLL1-menin inhibition decreased cell proliferation via a multitude of cell-cycle related pathways. Mice bearing MLL1-depleted tumors exhibited decreased significant lung metastatic burden when sacrificed at a set tumor size, indicating that MLL1 played a role in the invasion of tumor cells in vivo. Finally, MLL1-Menin inhibition was additive with standard chemotherapeutics, both in vitro and in vivo.

The histone methyltransferase activity of MLL1 is dispensable for hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis

Project description:Despite correlations between histone methyltransferase (HMT) activity and gene regulation, direct evidence that HMT activity is responsible for gene activation is sparse. We address the role of the HMT activity for MLL1, a histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase critical for maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here we show that the SET domain and thus HMT activity of MLL1 is dispensable for maintaining HSCs and for supporting leukemogenesis driven by the MLL-AF9 fusion oncoprotein. Upon Mll1 deletion, histone H4 lysine 16 (H4K16) acetylation was selectively depleted at MLL1 target genes in conjunction with reduced transcription. Surprisingly, inhibition of SIRT1 was sufficient to prevent the loss of H4K16 acetylation and the reduction in MLL1 target gene expression. Thus, recruited MOF activity, and not the intrinsic HMT activity of MLL1, is central for the maintenance of HSC target genes. In addition, this work reveals a role for SIRT1 in opposing MLL1 function. 11 Samples, 5 controls and 5 KOs with antibodies H3K4me1, H3K4me3, and H3K27Ac. One input Sample.
