Whole-exome sequencing identifies mutations of BCOR in acute myeloid leukemia with normal karyotype

ABSTRACT: Among acute myeloid leukemias (AML) with normal karyotype (CN-AML), NPM1 and CEBPA mutations define WHO provisional entities accounting for ~60% of cases, but the remaining ~40% remains poorly characterized. By whole exome-sequencing (WES) of one CN-AML patient lacking mutations in NPM1, CEBPA, FLT3, MLL-PTD and IDH1, we newly identified a clonal somatic mutation in BCOR (BCL6 co-repressor), a gene located in chromosome X. Further analyses showed that BCOR mutations occurred in 11/262 (4.2%) CN-AML cases and represented a substantial fraction (14/82, 17.1%) of CN-AML patients showing the same genetic background as the index patient subjected to WES. BCOR somatic mutations were: i) disruptive events similar to germline BCOR mutations causing the oculo-cranio-facial-dental (OCFD) genetic syndrome; ii) associated with markedly decreased BCOR mRNA levels, absence of full-length BCOR and absent or low expression of a truncated BCOR protein; iii) almost mutually exclusive with NPM1 mutations and frequently associated with DNMT3A and RUNX1 mutations, pointing to a cooperation between these events. Finally, BCOR mutations correlated with poor outcome among a cohort of 160 CN-AML patients (28% versus 66% overall survival at 2 yrs, P=0.024). Our results implicate for the first time BCOR in the pathogenesis of CN-AML without NPM1 mutations.

Our results implicate for the first time BCOR in the pathogenesis of CN-AML without NPM1 mutations. AML samples with normal karyotype were studied. Molecular analyses were performed for BCOR mutations. 12 BCOR wild-type cases and 12 BCOR mutated cases were hybridized to gene expression micro-arrays.

Gene expression profiles of mono- and biallelic CEBPA mutations in cytogenetically normal AML

Project description:Purpose: CEBPA mutations are found as either biallelic (biCEBPA) or monoallelic (moCEBPA). We set out to explore whether the kind of CEBPA mutation is of prognostic relevance in cytogenetically normal AML (CN-AML). Patients and Methods: 467 homogeneously treated CN-AML patients were subdivided into moCEBPA, biCEBPA and wildtype (wt) CEBPA patients. The subgroups were analyzed for clinical parameters and for additional mutations in the NPM1, FLT3 and MLL genes. Furthermore, we obtained gene expression profiles (GEP) for a subgroup of 61 patients using oligonucleotide microarrays. 61 bone-marrow samples from CN-AML patients were analyzed using Affymetrix HG-U133 oligonucleotide microarrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). Sample preparation, hybridization and image acquisition were performed according to standard Affymetrix protocols. Custom chip definition files based on the GeneAnnot database were used for data analysis (Ferrari et al, BMC Bioinformatics 8:446). The twilight algorithm was used to comapre gene expression profiles of patients with wildtype CEBPA and mono- and biallelic CEBPA mutations.

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

Gene expression profiling in AML with normal karyotype: A multicenter study investigating molecular markers in 251 cases

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease and AML with normal karyotype (AML-NK) is categorized as an intermediate-risk group. Over the past years molecular analyses successfully identified biomarkers that will further allow to dissecting clinically meaningful subgroups in this disease. Thus far, somatic mutations were identified which elucidate the disturbance of cellular growth, proliferation, and differentiation processes in hematopoietic progenitor cells. In AML-NK, acquired gene mutations with prognostic relevance were identified for FLT3, CEBPA, and NPM1. FLT3-ITD mutations were associated with short relapse-free and overall survival, while mutations in CEBPA or NPM1 (without concomitant FLT3-ITD) had a more favorable outcome. Here, we present a multicenter study investigating gene expression profiles of 251 cases of de novo AML-NK. In three centers whole-genome microarray analyses were performed to delineate robust and common expression signatures for molecular markers in AML-NK. All samples were obtained from untreated patients at the time of diagnosis. Cells used for microarray analysis were collected from the purified fraction of mononuclear cells after Ficoll density centrifugation (Dresden, n=78; Munich, n=97; Ulm, n=77). Each laboratory performed its routine diagnostic algorithms, including the characterization of molecular markers.

Lenalidomide-mediated enhanced translation of C/EBP?-p30 protein upregulates expression of the anti-leukemic microRNA-181a in acute myeloid leukemia - microRNA Data

Project description:Recently, we showed that increased miR-181a expression was associated with improved outcomes in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). Interestingly, miR-181a expression was increased in CN-AML patients harboring CEBPA mutations, which are usually biallelic and associate with better prognosis. CEBPA encodes the C/EBP? transcription factor. We demonstrate here that the presence of N-terminal CEBPA mutations and miR-181a expression are linked. Indeed, the truncated C/EBP?-p30 isoform, which is produced from the N-terminal mutant CEBPA gene or from the differential translation of wild-type CEBPA mRNA and is commonly believed to have no transactivation activity, binds to the miR-181a-1 promoter and upregulates the microRNA expression. In xenograft mouse models, ectopic miR-181a expression inhibits tumor growth. This regulatory pathway may explain an increased sensitivity to apoptosis-inducing chemotherapy in subsets of AML patients. Altogether, our data provide a potential explanation for the improved clinical outcomes observed in CEBPA-mutated CN-AML patients.

Transcription profiling of human newly diagnosed AML CEBPA double and single mutant and CEBPA wild type AML.

Project description:Mutations in CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (CEBPA) are seen in 5-14% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and have been associated with a favorable clinical outcome. Most AMLs with CEBPA mutations simultaneously carry two mutations (CEBPAdouble-mut), usually biallelic, while single heterozygous mutations (CEBPAsingle-mut) are less frequently seen. Using denaturing high performance liquid chromatography and nucleotide sequencing we identified among a cohort of 598 newly diagnosed AMLs a subset of 41 CEBPA mutant cases, i.e. 28 CEBPAdouble-mut and 13 CEBPAsingle-mut cases. CEBPAdouble-mut associated with a unique gene expression profile as well as favorable overall and event-free survival, retained in multivariable analysis that included cytogenetic risk, FLT3-ITD and NPM1 mutation, white blood cell count and age. In contrast, CEBPAsingle-mut AMLs did not express a discriminating signature and could not be distinguished from wild type cases as regards clinical outcome. These results demonstrate significant underlying heterogeneity within CEBPA mutation positive AML with prognostic relevance. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiling of 524 cases of de novo AML. Comparisons of cases with double and single CEBPA mutations versus those with wild type CEBPA.

Gene Expression Signature Predicts Relapse in Adult Patients with Cytogenetically Normal Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Project description:Although approximately 80% of adult patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) achieve a complete remission (CR), over half of them relapse. Better identification of patients who are likely to relapse can help inform clinical decisions. We performed RNA sequencing on pretreatment samples from 268 adults with de novo CN-AML younger than 60 years who achieved a CR after induction treatment with standard “7+3” chemotherapy. After filtering for genes whose expressions were associated with gene mutations known to impact on outcome (i.e., CEBPA, NPM1, and FLT3-internal tandem duplication [FLT3-ITD]), we identified a 10-gene signature strongly predictive of patient relapse (area under the curve [AUC]=0.81). The signature consisted of seven coding genes: GAS6, PSD3, PLCB4, DEXI, JMY, NRP1, C10orf55, and three long non-coding RNAs. In multivariable analysis, the 10-gene signature was strongly associated with relapse (P<.001), after adjustment for the FLT3-ITD, CEBPA and NPM1 mutational status. Validation of the expression signature in an independent patient set from The Cancer Genome Atlas showed the signature’s strong predictive value with AUC=0.78. Implementation of the 10-gene signature into clinical prognostic stratification could be useful for identifying patients likely to relapse.
