Chemical Screening Identified Compounds That Trigger Differentiation and Augment ATRA-Induced Myeloid Cell Differentiation

ABSTRACT: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a blood cancer characterized by abnormal proliferation and differentiation arrest of myeloid progenitor cells. Clinical treatment of AMLs remains challenging. Promoting AML cell differentiation is a valid therapeutic strategy. But most AMLs lack effective differentiation drugs. In this study, we generated Tg(drl:hoxa9) zebrafish, which drives hoxa9 overexpression in hematopoietic cells and exhibits myeloid differentiation arrest. Using Tg(drl:hoxa9) embryos, we performed a chemical screen and identified four FDA-approved drugs, ethacrynic acid, khellin, oxcarbazepine and alendronate, that efficiently restored myeloid differentiation in embryos. The four drugs also induced the differentiation of AML cells, with ethacrynic acid being the most effective. By RNA-seq analysis, we found that during induction of differentiation, ethacrynic acid activates the IL-17 and MAPK signaling pathways, which are known to promote granulopoiesis. Furthermore, we found that ethacrynic acid enhances all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced myeloid differentiation, and the two signaling are convergent on the IL-17/MAPK pathways. Inhibition of IL-17 /MAPK pathways impairs ethacrynic acid and ATRA-induced differentiation. In addition, we showed that ethacrynic acid is less toxic to embryonic development and less disruptive to normal hematopoietic processes than ATRA. Thus, the combination of ethacrynic acid and ATRA may have a broader clinical application. In conclusion, through zebrafish-aided screening, our study identified four drugs repurposed to induce AML differentiation and provided new agents for AML therapy.

Hoxa9/meis1-transgenic zebrafish develops acute myeloid leukemia-like disease with rapid onset and high-penetrance

Project description:HOXA9/MEIS1 plays a synergistic causative role and overexpresses frequently in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Hoxa9/Meis1 transgenic murine results in rapid leukemic transformation of primary bone marrow cells. However, murine model is not suitable to perform a high-throughput phenotypic screen in vivo and identify compounds for AML therapy. A transgenic zebrafish overexpresses hoxa9/meis1 need to generate. We have engineered an inducible transgenic line Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) harboring hoxa9/meis1 under the draculin (drl) promoter. The downregulation of runx1, c-myb, mpx, mfap4, and gata1 in Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) embryos indicated enforced hoxa9/meis1 perturbs embryonic hematopoiesis. Importantly, adult Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) develops malignant myeloid disease with an abundance of myeloid precursor cells, anemia, and high mortality after a latency period (~5-months-aged) with comparable to murine model and human AML patients. Genome-wide transcription changes analysis indicated arrested differentiation genes such as gata2b, notch1b, and gfi1ab are upregulated. Leflunomide, inhibitor of enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) which is a potential option for differentiation therapy of AML, relieves defective hematopoiesis in transgenic embryos and larvae. Collectively, we have identified an inducible malignant myeloid disease transgenic zebrafish model similar to AML and provided a unique opportunity for high-throughput in vivo chemical screening for AML therapy and study the related mechanisms.

LSD1 inhibition by tranylcypromine derivatives interferes with GFI1-mediated repression of PU.1 target genes and induces differentiation in AML

Project description:Lsd1KO and ATRA treatment in Hoxa9/Meis1- and MN1-transformed myeloid progenitor cells LSD1 has emerged as a promising epigenetic target in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Inhibition of LSD1 has been shown to induce differentiation and facilitate the responsiveness of AML cells to all-trans retinoic acid. We used two murine AML models based on retroviral overexpression of Hoxa9/Meis1 (H9M) or MN1 to study the effect of Lsd1 knockout in AML. The conditional knockout of Lsd1 resulted in differentiation with both granulocytic and monocytic features in H9M-induced AML cells and enhanced their responsiveness towards ATRA treatment, which was not seen in MN1-driven AML. It also extended the survival of mice with H9M-driven AML. To identify molecular changes associated with the loss of Lsd1, we performed whole transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing of H9M and MN1 Lsd1 fl/fl (Ctrl) and Lsd1cKO cells with or without ATRA treatment. The experiment was done in triplicates. The conditional knockout led to a broad increase in the expression of multiple genes regulated by the important myeloid transcription factors GFI1 and PU.1. These include the transcription factors GFI1B and IRF8, which may be relevant for the observed differentiation response.

Inhibition of the LSD1 (KDM1A) demethylase reactivates the all-trans-retinoic acid differentiation pathway in acute myeloid leukemia [Illumina HumanHT-12 gene expression array]

Project description:All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) has been successfully used in therapy of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a cytogenetically distinct subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) but the response of non-APL AML cases to ATRA-based treatment has been poor. Here we show that, via epigenetic reprogramming, inhibitors of LSD1/KDM1 demethylase including tranylcypromine (TCP) unlocked the ATRA-driven therapeutic response in non-APL AML. LSD1 inhibition did not lead to an increase in genome-wide H3 lysine4 dimethylation (H3K4me2) but did increase H3K4me2 and expression of myeloid differentiation-associated genes. Importantly, treatment with ATRA plus TCP dramatically diminished engraftment of primary human AML cells in vivo in NOD.SCID mice, suggesting that ATRA in combination with TCP may target leukemia-initiating cells. Furthermore, initiation of ATRA plus TCP co-treatment 15 days post-engraftment of human AML cells in NOD.SCID gamma mice also revealed the ATRA plus TCP drug combination to have a potent anti-leukemic effect, which was superior to treatment with either drug alone. These data identify LSD1 as a therapeutic target and strongly suggest that it may contribute to AML pathogenesis by inhibiting the normal pro-differentiative function of ATRA, paving the way for novel combinatorial therapies of AML. Overall, 30 specimens derived from HL-60 or TEX cell line were treated with drugs and hybridized to Illumina HumanHT-12 gene expression arrays.

Expression profiling of myeloid leukemia cell treated with vibsanine A, PMA and ATRA

Project description:All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-based differentiation therapy has achieved success with the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a unique subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, other subtypes of AML display resistance to ATRA-based treatment. Here, we demonstrate that a novel natural vibsane-type diterpenoid vibsanine A promotes the differentiation of myeloid leukemia cell lines and primary AML blasts. To reveal how vibsanine A function on promoting myeloid leukemia cell differentiation, we analyzed and compared the gene expression profiles in myeloid leukemia HL-60 cells treated with vibsanine A, PMA, and ATRA. HL-60 cells were treated with vibsanine A, PMA and ATRA for 6 hours or longer up to 24 hours. Gene expression profiling was conducted

Proteome dynamics of HL-60, NB4, and K562 cells under the ATRA treatment

Project description:Searching for new strategies of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment is of particular interest. Cell lines, e. g. HL-60 and NB4, represent model systems to study molecular features of leukemic cells. The all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) has proven itself to be an effective treatment for one of AML subtypes, i.e., acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). At the same time, ATRA causes granulocytic differentiation of non-APL leukemic cells in vitro. Combination of new therapeutics with ATRA could improve efficiency of treatment. Studying the proteome perturbation in leukemic cells under the ATRA treatment allows to determine potential regulatory molecules that could be affected pharmacologically. Thus, the TMT-based proteomic profiles of HL-60, NB4, and K562 cell lines under the ATRA treatment were obtained at 0, 3, 12, 24, and 72 h after the ATRA treatment.

Epigenetic Control over IFN Type-I Response antagonizes self-renewal in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Large biological heterogeneity hallmarks acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and substantially hampers development of novel comprehensive therapies. While all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) revolutionized therapy of acute promyelocytic leukemia, its impact on other AML subtypes remained largely disappointing. Here we show for the first time that ATRA mediated phosphorylation of the histone demethylase PHF8 induces apoptosis of AML cells of different subtypes via regulation of viral mimicry and subsequent initiation of interferon (IFN) type-I response. Phospho-PHF8 conferred H3K9me2 demethylation at promoter sites of key initiators of cell-intrinsic immune response. Multiomics based analyses revealed activation of cytosolic RNA sensors as key step towards NF-κB driven IFN type-I mediated apoptosis. Epigenetic changes directed by PHF8 also induced a specific proteosome pathway controlling NF-κB activity after its initial activation. Hence, PHF8 orchestrates viral mimicry, triggering IFN type-I response-differentiation-apoptotic network in a broad spectrum of AML when activated by ATRA. Forced phosphorylation of PHF8 via combination treatment with ATRA and simultaneous pharmacological inhibition of PHF8 dephosphorylation significantly impaired growth of human AML. Our findings finally open the gate for successful application of ATRA-based combination therapies in AML.

Transcriptome dynamics of HL-60, NB4, and K562 cells under the ATRA treatment

Project description:Combination of new therapeutics with trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) could improve efficiency of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment. Modeling the process of ATRA-induced differentiation based on transcriptomic profile of leukemic cells allows us to identify key molecules that could be affected to enhance the therapeutic effect of ATRA. Moreover, transcriptome analysis reveals the earliest steps of molecular response to inducer treatment. Thus, the transcriptomic profile of leukemic cells under the ATRA treatment at the different time points is considered as input data for further upstream regulator search.

Inhibition of the LSD1 (KDM1A) demethylase reactivates the all-trans-retinoic acid differentiation pathway in acute myeloid leukemia [ChIP-Seq]

ChIP-seq was used to study the effects of ATRA, TCP and ATRA/TCP treatment on H3K4 dimethylation. In addition to the three treatment samples, two reference samples were processed: (i) An untreated sample using the same anti-H3K4me2 antibody and an untreated sample using IgG. These five sequencing experiments were conducted using HL-60 cells and TEX cells, leading to 10 ChIP-seq samples in total.

Activation of CASP1 induces AML cell pyroptosis and sensitizes to ATRA treatment

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the accumulation of immature leukemic blasts. The application of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) treatments have markedly transformed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL, the M3 subtype of AML) to a highly manageable disease, and research strategies that seek to extend the application of ATRA-based treatment to other AML subtypes are an important area of investigation. Here, we found CASP1/GSDMD was lower expressed in APL and most other subtypes of primary de novo AML patients and increased in ATRA-treated APL cells. We showed that ATRA increased and activated CASP1 to trigger pyroptosis and differentiation of APL cells. Mechanistically, ATRA could induce CASP1 expression via IFNγ/STAT1 in APL and non-APL AML cells, while do not activate CASP1 in non-APL AML cells. Accordingly, pharmacological activation of CASP1 by Val-boroPro (DPP8/9 inhibitor) enhanced pyroptosis and differentiation induced by ATRA in AML cells. Moreover, the combination of ATRA and Val-boroPro enhanced anti-leukemia activity in primary AML cells. Our study demonstrates that the ATRA-mediated anti-leukemia effect requires a functional activated CASP1 and provides a highly attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of AML.
