Metallothionein 1 (Mt1) Regulates Growth and Survival of DNMT3A;NPM1-Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ABSTRACT: Adult de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematologic malignancy with poor prognosis, commonly driven by mutations in genes including the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A and nucleophosmin NPM1. We previously generated sequentially inducible mouse models of these mutations and observed transformation from clonal hematopoiesis (CH) to myeloproliferative disorder to AML. In transformed AML, leukemia-propagating cells have a myeloid-restricted progenitor cell phenotype (c-Kit+). Here, to identify mechanisms that sustain tumorigenesis, we performed single-cell RNA-seq of c-Kit+ cells from four primary Dnmt3a;Npm1-mutant AML samples. The most primitive subset of c-Kit+ cells, a multipotent progenitor population Multi-Lin-2, had increased expression of the antioxidant and heavy metal chelator metallothionein 1 (Mt1) in all AML samples. Cas9-mediated Mt1 knockout in primary Dnmt3a;Npm1-mutant AML resulted in reduced cell cycling and proliferation and increased pyroptosis in vitro and increased overall survival following transplant into congenic recipient mice.

Selection Pressures in the Aged Microenvironment Drive Transformation of Dnmt3a-Mutant Hematopoietic Stem Cells to Myeloid Malignancy

Project description:Driver somatic mutations in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are often preceded by a benign or premalignant state termed clonal hematopoiesis (CH) for which the greatest risk factor is aging. To risk-stratify aged individuals and develop therapies to prevent AML, we need to understand the variables that promote transformation from CH to AML. Using our orthogonally inducible Dnmt3aR878H;Npm1cA-mutant model of progression from CH to myeloid malignancy, we find that in young mice, Dnmt3a mutation buffers against myeloid differentiation, proliferation, acquisition of cooperating mutations and transformation induced by stress, inflammation, and the oncogenic Npm1 mutation. However, when Dnmt3a;Npm1-mutant hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are transplanted into naturally aged recipient mice, they gain myeloid-biased differentiation capacity and have an accelerated transformation to AML. These results support the hypothesis that alterations in the aged microenvironment drive risk of AML in individuals with CH and help to explain why this Dnmt3a mutation is exceedingly rare in pediatric leukemias.

Crenolanib in combination with azacitidine abrogates stromal protection and survival of leukemia-initiating cells in FLT3-ITD+ AML

Project description:Effectively targeting leukemia-initiating cells (LIC) in FLT3-internal-tandem-duplication (ITD)-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains a crucial goal for achievement of cure. FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have limited impact as single agents and have thus far been unable to eradicate LIC enriched in the CD34+CD38- bone marrow compartment and protected by contact with niche cells.Using primary AML samples in vitro as well as in an in vivo xenograft model, we investigated whether combining the novel FLT3-selective TKI crenolanib with the hypomethylating agent azacitidine (AZA) can eliminate LIC in FLT3-ITD+ AML and determined whether efficacy of this combination is dependent on coexisting genetic mutations in DNMT3A, NPM1 and TET2. Our data show that crenolanib as a single agent was unable to target FLT3-ITD+ LIC in contact with niche cells while the addition of AZA overcame stromal protection and resulted in dramatically reduced clonogenic capacity of FLT3-ITD+ LIC in vitro as well as severely impaired engraftment capacity of FLT3-ITD+ LIC in NSG mice. Strikingly, FLT3-mutated AML samples harboring concurrent TET2 mutations were completely resistant to crenolanib as a single agent. Mutations in DNMT3A or NPM1 had no influence on response to crenolanib while DNMT3A mutations conferred increased sensitivity of FLT3-ITD+ LIC to AZA. Our data suggest that response to crenolanib or AZA as single agents in FLT3-ITD+ AML is highly dependent on coexisting mutations in epigenetic regulators. However, the combination of AZA + crenolanib effectively eliminated FLT3-ITD+ LIC irrespective of additional mutations in NPM1, DNMT3A or TET2.

Molecular Cooperativity of Dnmt3a and Npm1 Mutations in Transformation from Clonal Hematopoiesis to Myeloid Malignancy

Project description:Driver somatic mutations in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may be preceded by a benign state termed clonal hematopoiesis (CH). To develop therapeutic strategies to prevent leukemia development from CH, it is important to understand the mechanisms by which CH-driving and AML-driving mutations cooperate. Here, we utilize mice with inducible mutant alleles common in CH (DNMT3AR882; mouse Dnmt3aR878H/+) and AML (NPM1c; mouse Npm1cA/+). We find that Dnmt3aR878H/+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), but not multipotent progenitor cell (MPP) subsets, have reduced expression of cytokine and pro-inflammatory transcriptional signatures and a functional competitive advantage over their wild-type counterparts. These Dnmt3aR878H/+ HSCs are transformed by activation of Npm1cA/+, generating myeloid malignancies in which few additional cooperating somatic mutation events were detected. At a molecular level, Npm1cA/+ acutely increased accessibility of a distinct set of promoters in cooperation with Dnmt3aR878H/+ than it did as a single mutation. These promoters were enriched for pro-inflammatory response signatures, p53 pathway, DNA repair and targets of transcription factors implicated in AML, including Hmgb1 and Pax4. These results suggest cooperativity between pre-existing Dnmt3a mutation and Npm1 mutation at the chromatin level, where specific loci altered in accessibility by the Npm1 mutation are dependent on Dnmt3a mutation status. These findings have implications for biological understanding and therapeutic intervention of the transformation from CH to AML.

Whole cell proteome of OCI-AML3 FKBP12(F36V) cells with dTAG-13 treatment

Project description:The nucleolar scaffold protein NPM1 acts as a multifunctional regulator of cellular homeostasis, genome integrity, and stress response. NPM1 mutations, known as NPM1c variants that promote its aberrant cytoplasmic localization, are the most frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A hallmark of AML cells is their dependency on elevated autophagic flux. In order to identify the proteome changes upon NPM1 and NPM1c overexpression, we performed TMT-labeled mass spectrometry analysis of whole cell lysates.

Prognostic DNA Methylation Patterns in Cytogenetically Normal Acute Myeloid Leukemia are predefined by Stem Cell Chromatin Marks [methylation]

Project description:Cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) comprise between forty and fifty percent of all adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. In this clinically diverse group molecular aberrations such as FLT3ITD, NPM1 and CEBPA mutations recently have added to the prognostic accuracy. Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer including AML. We investigated in total 89 CN-AML samples in a test and a validation cohort for genome-wide promoter DNA methylation with Illumina Methylation Bead arrays and compared them to normal myeloid precursors and global gene expression. IDH and NPM1 mutations were associated with different methylation patterns (p=0.0004 and 0.04, respectively). Genome-wide methylation levels were elevated in IDH mutated samples (p=0.006). We observed a negative impact of DNA methylation on transcription. Genes targeted by Polycomb group (PcG) proteins and genes associated with bivalent histone marks in stem cells showed increased aberrant methylation in AML (p<0.0001). Furthermore, high methylation levels of PcG target genes were independently associated with better progression free (OR 0.47, p=0.01) and overall survival (OR 0.36, p=0.001). In summary, genome wide methylation patterns show preferential methylation of PcG targets with prognostic impact in CN-AML. Genome wide methylation pattern study of cytogenetically normal AML

Prolonged XPO1 inhibition is essential to achieve optimal antileukemic activity in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) accounts for one third of AML in adults. NPM1-mutated AML maintenance depends on the interaction between mutated NPM1 (NPM1c) and the nuclear exporter Exportin 1 (XPO1). In this work, we show that continous XPO1 inhibition is necessary to achieve stable disruption of the NPM1c-XPO1 interaction and to induce HOX downregulation and differentiation of AML cells with mutated NPM1. In contrast, intermittent XPO1 inhibition only results in minimal transcriptional perturbation and limited antileukemic activity.

Dnmt3a haploinsufficiency transforms Flt3-ITD myeloproliferative disease into a rapid, spontaneous, and fully-penetrant acute myeloid leukemia (Single Cell RNA-Seq)

Project description:Cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) represents nearly 50% of human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases with a 5-year overall survival of approximately 30%. In CN-AML with poorer prognosis, mutations in the de novo DNA methyltransferase (DNMT3A) and the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (Flt3) commonly co-occur (1-3). We demonstrate that mice with Flt3-internal-tandem duplication (Flt3ITD) and inducible deletion of Dnmt3a spontaneously develop a rapidly-lethal, completely-penetrant, and transplantable AML of normal karyotype. These murine AML retain a single Dnmt3a floxed allele, revealing the oncogenic potential of Dnmt3a haploinsufficiency. FLT3-ITD/DNMT3A-mutant primary human and murine AML demonstrate a similar pattern of global DNA methylation. In the murine model, rescuing DNMT3A expression was accompanied by DNA re-methylation and loss of clonogenic potential, suggesting that Dnmt3a-mutant oncogenic effects are reversible. Differentially methylated genomic regions were associated with changes in the expression of nearby genes. Moreover, dissection of the cellular architecture of the AML model using single-cell RNA-Seq, flow cytometry and colony assays identified clonogenic subpopulations that differentially express genes that are sensitive to the methylation of nearby genomic loci and varied in response to Dnmt3a levels. Thus, Dnmt3a haploinsufficiency transforms Flt3ITD myeloproliferative disease by modulating methylation-sensitive gene expression within a clonogenic AML subpopulation. To identify the gene expression changes associated with Dnmt3a loss of function in human and murine Flt3-ITD and Dnmt3a-mutant AML (Single Cell RNA-Seq).

Genomic structure, evolution and molecular classification of acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is driven by somatic mutations and genomic rearrangements affecting >20 genes. Many of these are recent discoveries and how this molecular heterogeneity dictates AML pathophysiology and clinical outcome remains unclear. Methods: We sequenced 111 leukemia genes for driver mutations in 1540 AML patients with cytogenetic and clinical data. We modeled AML’s genomic structure, defining genetic interactions, patterns of temporal evolution and clinical correlations. Results: We identified 5,236 driver mutations involving 77 loci, including hotspot mutations in MYC. We found ≥1 driver mutation in 96% patients, and ≥2 in 85%. Gene mutations implicated in age related clonal hematopoiesis (DNMT3A, ASXL1, TET2) were the earliest in AML evolution, followed by highly specific and ordered patterns of co-mutation in chromatin, transcription and splicing regulators, NPM1 and signaling genes. The patterns of co-mutation compartmentalize AML into 12 discrete molecular classes, each presenting with distinct clinical manifestation. Amongst these, mutations in chromatin and spliceosome genes demarcate a molecularly heterogeneous subgroup enriched for older AML patients currently classified as intermediate risk and results in adverse prognosis. Two- and three-way genetic interactions often implicating rare genes/mutation-hotspots, markedly redefined clinical response and long-term curability, with the NPM1:DNMT3A:FLT3ITD genotype (6% patients) identifying poor prognosis disease, whereas within the same class NPM1:DNMT3A:NRASG12/13 (3%) associated with favorable outlooks. Conclusions: 79% of AML is molecularly classified in 12 genomic subgroups. These represent distinct molecular phylogenies, implicating complex genotypes. Delineation of higher-order genomic relationships, guide the development of personally tailored classification, prognostication and clinical protocols. Similar studies across cancer types are warranted.
