Single-cell transcriptomes of CD8+ T cells from patients with HR-MDS and AML

ABSTRACT: Treatment with hypomethylating agents (HMA), and specifically azacitidine (AZA), is the standard of care for patients with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that are not eligible to receive intensive chemotherapy. Despite research efforts, it is not possible to predict response to treatment with HMA. In this study, we aimed to identify immune cell signatures in the bone marrow (BM) associated with treatment outcomes. By employing mass cytometry, we performed an in-depth immunophenotypic analysis in BM samples deriving from patients with myeloid neoplasms prior to treatment initiation. We identified an increased pre-treatment frequency of a CD8+ T cell subset, characterized as CD57+CXCR3+CCR7-CD45RA+, in patients with MDS and AML who did not respond to treatment with AZA, compared to responders. Furthermore, a baseline frequency of more than 29% of CD57+CXCR3+CD8+ T cells was correlated with poor overall survival. We further engaged scRNA-seq to assess the transcriptional profile of BM CD8+ T cells from treatment-naïve patients with MDS and AML, to identify molecular signatures in CD8+ T subpopulations associated with favorable outcomes. Response to treatment was positively associated with enrichment of IFN-mediated pathways coupled with enhanced cytotoxic signature, whereas enrichment of the TGF-β signaling pathway was observed in cell clusters from non-responders. Together, this study identified a specific CD57+CXCR3+ CD8+ T cell population with predictive value in patients with MDS and AML treated with AZA, and characterized molecular signatures in CD8+ T cells linked to cytokine signaling that were associated with treatment outcomes.

A methylation signature at diagnosis in patients with high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes and secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia predicts azacitidine response but not relapse

Project description:Epigenetic therapy, using hypomethylating agents (HMA), is known to be effective in the treatment of high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who are not suitable for intensive chemotherapy or allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, response rates to HMA are low and there is an unmet need in finding prognostic and predictive biomarkers of treatment response. We performed global methylation analysis of 75 patients with high risk MDS and secondary AML (sAML) who were included in CETLAM MDS-09 protocol, in which patients received HMA or intensive treatment according to age, comorbidities and cytogenetics. At diagnosis, no global methylation pattern allowed us to differentiate patients according to the cytological subtype, cytogenetics or treatment response. But we found a methylation signature defined by 200 probes, which allowed us to distinguish between responding and non-responding patients to azacitidine (AZA) treatment. Studying follow-up samples, we have confirmed that AZA decreases global DNA methylation, but in our cohort the degree of methylation decrease did not correlate with the type of response. The methylation signature detected at diagnosis was not useful in treated samples to determine a methylation pattern predictive of progression or relapse. In conclusion, altered DNA methylation patterns at diagnosis, in a subset of determined CpGs, may serve as biomarker for predicting AZA response.

Inhibition of CBP synergizes with the RNA-dependent mechanisms of azacitidine by limiting protein translation

Project description:The nucleotide analogue azacitidine (AZA) interferes with RNA and DNA metabolism and is currently the best treatment option for a subset of patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes. However, only half of treated patients respond and almost all patients that initially respond eventually relapse. Thus, response-predicting biomarkers and new treatment options are urgently needed to improve the clinical management of these patients. Here, we performed a loss-of-function shRNA screen in combination with AZA treatment in a MDS-derived AML cell line to identify chromatin regulators affecting drug response. We identified the histone acetyl transferase and transcriptional co-activator CBP as a major regulator of AZA sensitivity. Compounds inhibiting the enzymatic activity of CBP synergistically reduced viability of MDS-derived AML cell lines when combined with AZA. Surprisingly, this affect was specific for the RNA-dependent functions of AZA and not observed with the related compound decitabine that is limited to DNA incorporation. The identification of immediate target genes suggested that the effect of CBP inhibition is mediated by downregulation of genes encoding the translational machinery, which could be confirmed in proteomic analysis of nascent proteins. Furthermore, proteins most affected by CBP inhibition include key drivers of cycle progression. Taken together, our results identify a novel synergistic interaction between CBP inhibitors and specifically AZA that warrants further evaluation for the combinatorial treatment of high-risk MDS patients. Beyond the scope of MDS and AZA, we provide novel insight in the function of clinically promising CBP inhibitors that is related to unexpected interference with the translational machinery.

LC-MSMS of the MHC-I immunopeptidome of AML cell line, THP-1

Project description:The hypomethylating agent 5-azacytidine (AZA) is the first-line induction therapy for AML patients unsuitable for intensive chemotherapy. The anti-tumor effect of AZA results in part from T-cell cytotoxic responses against MHC-I-associated peptides (MAPs) deriving from hypermethylated genomic regions such as cancer-testis antigens (CTAs), or endogenous retroelements (EREs). However, clear evidence supporting higher ERE MAPs presentation after AZA treatment in AML is lacking. Interestingly, we find that AZA-mediated DNMT2 inhibition leads to autophagy induction, which is responsible for mitigating ERE MAPs generation. To validate our findings, we examined the immunopeptidome of THP-1 cells treated with AZA combined with autophagy inhibitor, Spautin-1 or decitabine (DAC, non-DNMT2 inhibiting HMA) through a proteogenomic approach.

Multi-omics of azacitidine-treated AML cells reveals variable and convergent targets that remodel the cell surface proteome

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are diseases of abnormal hematopoietic differentiation with aberrant epigenetic alterations. Azacitidine (AZA) is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (DNMTi) widely used to treat MDS and AML, yet the impact of AZA on the cell surface proteome has not been defined. To identify potential therapeutic targets for use in combination with AZA in AML patients, we investigated the effects of AZA treatment on four AML cell lines representing different stages of differentiation. The effect of AZA treatment on these cell lines was characterized at three levels: the DNA methylome, the transcriptome, and the cell surface proteome. Untreated AML cell lines showed substantial overlap at all three omics level; however, while AZA treatment globally reduced DNA methylation in all cell lines, changes in the transcriptome and surface proteome were subtle and differed among the cell lines. Transcriptome analysis identified five commonly up-regulated coding genes upon AZA treatment in all four cell lines, TRPM4 being the only gene encoding a surface protein, and surface proteomics analysis found no commonly regulated proteins. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) of differentially-regulated RNA and surface proteins showed a decrease in metabolism pathways and an increase in immune defense response pathways. As such, AZA treatment led to diverse effects at the individual gene and protein level but converged to common responses at the pathway level. Given the heterogeneous responses in the four cell lines, we discuss potential therapeutic strategies for AML in combinations with AZA.

Cellular Composition and 5hmC Signature Predict the Treatment Response of AML Patients to Azacitidine Combined with Chemotherapy

Project description:Azacitidine (AZA) is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor and epigenetic modulator that can be an effective agent in combination with chemotherapy for patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, biological factors driving the therapeutic response of such hypomethylating agent (HMA)-based therapies remain unknown. Herein, the transcriptome and/or genome-wide 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are characterized for 41 patients with high-risk AML from a phase 1 clinical trial treated with AZA epigenetic priming followed by high-dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone (AZA-HiDAC-Mito). Digital cytometry reveals that responders have elevated Granulocyte-macrophage-progenitor-like (GMP-like) malignant cells displaying an active cell cycle program. Moreover, the enrichment of Natural killer (NK) cells predicts favorable outcome in patients receiving AZA-HiDAC-Mito therapy or other AZA-based therapies. Comparing 5hmC profiles before and after five-day treatment of AZA shows that AZA exposure induces dose-dependent 5hmC changes, the magnitude of which predicts overall survival (p=0.015). An XGBoost machine learning model is developed to predict the treatment response based on 5hmC levels of only 11 genes, achieving an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.860. These results suggest that cellular composition markedly impacts the treatment response, and showcase the prospect of 5hmC signature in predicting the outcomes of HMA-based therapies in AML.

Non-canonical immune response to inhibition of DNA methylation via stabilization of dsRNAs from endogenous retroviruses

Project description:5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine, also known as decitabine, is a DNA hypomethylating agent (HMA) used to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and pre-leukemic disorder myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Decitabine activates the transcription of endogenous retroviruses (ERV), which can induce immune response by acting as cellular double-stranded RNAs. Here, we employ an image-based screening system to identify dsRNA-binding factors that mediate the downstream effect of ERV induction. We find that STAUFEN1 (STAU1) knockdown decreases the interferon signature and rescues decitabine-mediated cell death. Our subsequent analyses reveal that STAU1 directly binds to ERV RNAs and stabilizes the RNAs together with a long noncoding RNA, TINCR. Analysis of a clinical patient cohort further supports that MDS and AML patients with low STAU1 and TINCR expressions exhibited poor response to the HMA therapy. Our study reveals that decitabine-mediated cell death is a consequence of complex interactions among different dsRNA binding proteins for access to their common dsRNA targets.

Multi-omics analysis of myelodysplastic syndromes resistance to epigenetics threrary reveals PI3K/Akt activation mediated by epigenetic silencing of PTEN and epi-transcriptional silencing of MDM2 [transcriptome]

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a clonal myeloid neoplasm characterized by ineffective haematopoiesis and cytopenia with frequent epigenetic modifications. Hypomethylating agents (HMA) such as azacitidine (AZA) and decitabine (DEC) are standard therapeutic options in MDS, but drug resistance is not uncommon. Herein, multi-omic analysis is used to identify signaling pathways during MDS HMA resistance using MDS cell line P39 and validated in P39 and Kasumi-1. The Illumina Infinium Methylation EPIC BeadChip (850k) was used for comparison of P39-AZA-S and P39-DEC-S (control group) and P39-AZA-R and P39-DEC-R (resistant group). Sampple was prepared following the manufacturer protocol and final chip imaging was performed on Illumina iScan System (Illumina). Bioinformatic analysis of Methylation EPIC data utilized the Illumina GenomeStudio Methylation module V2011. Only CpG sites passed quality controls were filtered and normalized for differential methylation calculation.

Oxidative stress in myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:Control of oxidative stress in the bone marrow (BM) is key for maintaining the balance between self-renewal, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. Breakdown of this regulation can lead to diseases characterized by BM failure such as the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). To better understand the role of oxidative stress in MDS development, we compared protein carbonylation as an oxidative stress marker in BM of patients with MDS and control subjects, and also patients with MDS under treatment with the iron chelator deferasirox.
