Inflammatory conversion of normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells by acute myeloid leukemia derived extracellular vesicles in vivo

ABSTRACT: Inflammation in the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment is a constitutive component of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis. Studies have demonstrated that leukemic blasts propagate acute inflammation in the AML niche. Our recent studies in a congenic AML model suggest residual healthy hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) participate in the inflammatory crosstalk. However, the underlying mechanism that drives the inflammatory conversion of HSPCs remains unclear. Here, we ask whether AML-derived extracellular vesicles (EV-AML) can convert HSPCs into an inflammatory active state in vivo. Using EV-AML purified from inducible (i)MLL-AF9 AML blasts (AF9-EV-AML), we challenged healthy C57BL/6J mice with serial injections of AF9-EVAML and analyzed HSPCs transcriptome. We show that HSPC transcriptome corroborates the enrichment of inflammatory and innate immune responses in EVAML-challenged BM HSPCs compared to controls. Our findings suggest that AML converts HSPCs into an inflammatory hub via EVAML in the AML niche.

Normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in murine acute myeloid leukemia model in vivo

Project description:Bone marrow inflammation has been linked to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression. Studies have demonstrated that leukemic blasts propagate acute inflammation in the AML niche, but the involvment of normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the inflammatory crosstalk is not well understood. To better model compartmental inflammation in AML, we first established a highly penetrant, immunocompetent, fully congenic system. Using the monoblastic AML cell line C1498 (CD45.2+), we grafted non-condition C57BL/6J (CD45.1) mice, avoiding changes in BM niche function. We then fluoresence-activated cell sorting (FACS)-sorted residual normal HSPCs for single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis. We show that residual normal HSPCs from C1498-grafted mice expresses key inflammatory signature and are enriched in inflammatory signaling related pathways. Overall, we show that normal HSPCs engages in inflammatory signaling in AML niche.

Acute myeloid leukemia cells functionally compromise hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells inhibiting normal hematopoiesis through the release of extracellular vesicles

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive and heterogeneous clonal disorder of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). It is not well known how leukemia cells alter hematopoiesis promoting tumor growth and leukemic niche formation. In this study, we investigated how AML deregulates the hematopoietic process of HSPCs through the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). First, we found that AML cells released a heterogeneous population of EVs (AML-EVs) containing microRNAs involved in AML pathogenesis. Notably AML-EVs were able to influence the fate of HSPCs modifying their transcriptome. In fact, a gene expression profile of AML-EV-treated HSPCs identified approximately 923 down and 630 up-regulated genes involved in hematopoiesis/differentiation, inflammatory cytokine production and cell movement. Indeed, most of the downregulated genes are targeted by AML-EV-derived miRNAs. Furthermore, we demonstrated that AML-EVs were able to affect HSPCs phenotype, modifying several biological functions, such as inhibiting cell differentiation and clonogenicity, activating inflammatory cytokine production and compromising cell movement. Indeed, a redistribution of HSPC populations was observed in AML-EV treated cells with a significant increase in the frequency of common myeloid progenitors and a reduction in granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors. This effect was accompanied by a reduction in HSPC colony formation. AML-EV treatment of HSPCs increased the levels of CCL3, IL1B and CSF2 cytokines, involved in the inflammatory process and in cell movement, and decreased CXCR4 expression associated with a reduction of SDF-1 mediated-migration. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the existence of a powerful communication between AML cells and HSPCs, mediated by EVs, which suppresses normal hematopoiesis and potentially contributes to create a leukemic niche favorable to neoplastic development.

mRAN expression profiles in mesenchymal progenitor cells freshly-sorted from Wild Type and Lama4-deficient mice

Project description:Bone marrow (BM) niche contributes to hematopoietic regeneration under stress like irradiation and leukemia. However, the mechanisms remain poorly defined. We here report that Lama4 deletion in mice results in reduction of mesenchymal progenitors (MPCs) and endothelial cells in BM. Following irradiation, Lama4-/- mice displayed impaired hematopoiesis recovery accompanied with dysregulation of BM niche factors like angiopoietin-1 and Tgfb1 in the MPCs. Post-transplantation of MLL-AF9 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, we observed accelerated AML onset in Lama4-/- mice. Moreover, these Lama4-/- AML mice displayed faster relapse after therapeutic BM transplantation. Mechanistically, Lama4-/- niche promoted AML cell proliferation and chemoresistance to chemotherapy cytarabine by conferring AML greater antioxidant activity. Together, our study demonstrates that Lama4 is required to maintain hematopoietic niche integrity and to suppress AML progression and chemoresistance by restricting metabolic defense support to AML. Therefore, activating Lama4 signaling pathways may offer potential new therapeutic options for AML.

Murine fetal bone marrow does not support functional hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells until birth

Project description:Fetal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) migrate from fetal liver (FL) to bone marrow (BM) around birth. While adult BM HSPCs and their extrinsic regulation is well studied, little is known about the composition, function, and extrinsic regulation of the first HSPCs to enter the BM. Here, we show that HSPCs colonize multiple fetal bones by E15.5, shift from an MPP2 to an MPP3/4-dominant phenotype by birth, and display little function until E18.5, relative to their FL counterparts. We establish a transcriptional atlas of single perinatal HSPCs, and their putative BM niches, from E15.5 through P0 and show that early fetal BM (FBM) lacks HSPCs with intrinsic stem cell programs and niche cells supportive of HSPCs. In contrast, stem cell programs are preserved in neonatal BM HSPCs, which engage with a niche expressing HSC supportive factors distinct from those seen in adult BM (i.e., IGF).

Single-cell analysis reveals altered tumor microenvironments of relapse- and remission-associated pediatric acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) bone marrow (BM) samples from diagnosis (Dx), end of induction (EOI), and relapse timepoints were analyzed by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Analysis of matched Dx, EOI scRNA-seq datasets and TARGET AML RNA-seq datasets revealed a novel AML blasts-associated 7-gene signature (CLEC11A, PRAME, AZU1, NREP, ARMH1, C1QBP, TRH) that was validated in two independent datasets. Distinct clusters of relapse- and continuous complete remission (CCR)-associated AML-blasts were observed at Dx, with differential expression of genes associated with survival. At Dx, relapse-associated samples had more exhausted T cells while CCR-associated samples had more inflammatory M1 macrophages. Post-therapy EOI residual blasts overexpressed fatty acid oxidation, tumor growth, and stemness genes. Also, a post-therapy T-cells cluster present in relapse-associated samples exhibited downregulation of MHC Class I and T-cell regulatory genes. Altogether, this study deeply characterizes pediatric AML relapse- and CCR-associated samples to provide novel insights into BM microenvironment landscape.

mRAN expression profiles in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) from Wild Type and Lama4-deficient mice co-cultured with MLL-AF9 AML cells

Project description:Bone marrow (BM) niche contributes to hematopoietic regeneration and can be remodeled by leukemic cells. We have found that Lama4 deletion in mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could promote the proliferation of MLL-AF9 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and chemoresistance of the cells to chemotherapy cytarabine. However, whether Lama4 deficient MSCs are more susseptible for AML cell remodeling remains to be explored. Here we report that differential molecular alterations in Lama4 deficient MSCs compared to wild type MSCs after being exposed to the AML cells for 48hours, which might be related to the enhanced AML cell proliferation and chemoresistance.

Expression data from human AML blasts and healthy CD34+ bone marrow cells

Project description:Treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains suboptimal and many patients remain refractory or relapse upon standard chemotherapy based on nucleoside analogs plus anthracyclines. The crosstalk between AML cells and the bone marrow (BM) stroma is a major mechanism underlying therapy resistance in AML. Lenalidomide and pomalidomide, a new generation immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), possess pleiotropic anti-leukemic properties including potent immune-modulating effects and are commonly used in hematological malignances associated with intrinsic dysfunctional BM such as myelodysplastic syndromes and multiple myeloma. Whether IMiDs may improve the efficacy of current standard treatment in AML remains understudied. Here, we have exploited in vitro and in vivo preclinical AML models to analyze whether IMiDs potentiate the efficacy of AraC/Iradubicin (standard AML chemotherapy) by interfering with the BM stroma-mediated chemoresistance. We report that lenalidomide and pomalidomide have cytotoxic effects on neither AML cells nor BM-MSCs, but they increase the immunosuppressive/immunomodulatory properties of BM-MSCs. When combined with AraC and Idarubicin, IMiDs fail to circumvent BM stroma-mediated resistance of AML cells in vitro and in vivo but induce robust extramedullary mobilization of AML cells. When administered as a single agent, lenalidomide highly mobilizes AML cells, but not healthy CD34+ cells, to peripheral blood (PB) likely through specific downregulation of CXCR4 in AML blasts. Global gene expression profiling supports a migratory/mobilization gene signature in lenalidomide-treated AML blasts but not in CD34+ cells. Collectively, IMiDs mobilize AML blasts to PB through downregulation of CXCR4 but do not improve AraC/Idarubicin activity in a preclinical model of AML.

Osteoblasts secrete miRNA-containing extracellular vesicles that enhance expansion of human umbilical cord blood cells

Project description:Osteolineage cells represent one of the critical bone marrow niche components that support maintenance of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Recent studies demonstrate that extracellular vesicles (EVs) regulate stem cell development via horizontal transfer of bioactive cargo, including microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we characterize the miRNA profile of EVs secreted by human osteoblasts and study their biological effect of on human umbilical cord blood-derived CD34+ HSPCs by sequencing, gene expression and biochemical analyses. Using next-generation sequencing we show that osteoblast-derived EVs contain highly abundant miRNAs specifically enriched in EVs, including critical regulators of hematopoietic proliferation (e.g., miR-29a). EV treatment of CD34+ HSPCs alters the expression of candidate miRNA targets, such as HBP1, BCL2 and PTEN. Furthermore, EVs enhance proliferation of CD34+ cells and their immature subsets in growth factor-driven ex vivo expansion cultures. Importantly, EV-expanded cells retain their differentiation capacity in vitro and show successful engraftment in NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ (NSG) mice in vivo. These discoveries reveal a novel osteoblast-derived EV-mediated mechanism for regulation of HSPC proliferation and warrant consideration of EV-miRNAs for the development of expansion strategies to treat hematological disorders.

Targeting mesenchymal stromal cells plasticity to reroute acute myeloid leukemia course

Project description:MSC and AML dual targeting to treat pediatric AML Bone marrow (BM) microenvironment supports the regulation of normal hematopoiesis through a finely tuned balance of self-renewal and differentiation processes, cell-cell interaction and secretion of cytokines that during leukemogenesis are severely compromised and favor tumor cell growth. In pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chemotherapy is the standard of care, but still >30% of patients relapse. The need to accelerate the evaluation of innovative medicines prompted us to investigate the mesenchymal stromal cell (MSCs) role in the leukemic niche to define its contribution to the mechanisms of leukemia escape. We generated humanized three-dimensional (3D) niche with AML cells and MSCs derived from patients (AML-MSCs) or healthy donors. We observed that AML cells establish physical connections with MSCs, mediating a reprogrammed transcriptome inducing aberrant cell proliferation and differentiation, and severely compromising their immunomodulatory capability. We confirmed AML cells endow h-MSCs with a pro-oncogenic transcriptional profile and functions similar to the AML-MSCs when co-cultured in vitro. Conversely, MSCs derived from BM of patients at time of disease remission showed recovered healthy features, at transcriptional and functional levels, including the secretome. We sustained AML blasts altering MSC cell activities in the BM niche in order to favor disease development and progression, becoming a pharmacological target. We discovered that a novel AML-MSCs selective CaV1.2 channel blocker drug, Lercanidipine, is able to impair leukemia progression in 3D both, in vitro and when implanted in vivo, if used in combination with chemotherapy, supporting the hypothesis that synergistic effects can be obtained by dual targeting approaches.

Transcriptome profiling of quiescent and cytokine induced normal human haematopoietic CD34+ HSPCs, and AML blast cells

Project description:Control group is an essential part of the research design which provide a baseline by elimating variables, bias and other factors that skew the data. Human CD34+ cells are generally used as controls to study myeloid malignancies. This study determines whether fresh or short term cytokine induced CD34+ HSPCs can provide a more appropriate normal control (compared to AML blasts) for target discovery studies. We here determine that the GEP of CD34+ cells that do not undergo ex vivo expansion best match the GEP of minimally differentiated AML blasts and would serve as a better control to identify novel targets in the AML blast population.
