CK2-mediated DEK Phosphorylation Drives PBX3 Overexpression: A Core Event in Hematopoietic Stem Cell-to-Leukemia Stem Cell Transformation [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) possess self-renewal capacity and are largely refractory to conventional chemotherapy, thereby driving relapse and treatment failure in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we identify DEK as a crucial oncogenic factor aberrantly overexpressed in relapsed AML, with markedly increased phosphorylation by casein kinase 2 (CK2), correlating with poor patient prognosis. Using human AML cells and mouse models, we demonstrate that loss of DEK or phospho-mutants DEK, specifically at Ser306/Ser308/Ser311/Ser312 induces AML cells proliferation, differentiation, and weakened LSCs stemness. Mechanistically, phosphorylated DEK recruits GABPA to activate PBX3 transcription, thereby driving a leukemic transcriptional program. Importantly, targeting DEK or pharmacologic inhibition of CK2 using the specific inhibitor CX-4945 disrupts DEK phosphorylation and markedly sensitizes AML cells to venetoclax treatment, providing a rationale for a potential combination therapeutic strategy. Collectively, our findings uncover a unique and critical role of phosphorylated DEK as a transcriptional coactivator in AML and highlight the CK2-DEK/GABPA-PBX3 axis as a promising therapeutic target for AML.

Genome-wide maps of PBX3-binding site

Project description:We report the high-throughput profiling of PBX3-binding sites under liver cancer stem cell reprogramming driven by PBX3 overexpression. By obtaining over four billion bases of sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide PBX3-binding maps of SMMC-7721 cells. This study provides a prediction of regulated genes by the PBX3.

PBX3 cooperates with MEISI in causing rapid acute myeloid leukemia and recapitulates the core transcriptome of MLL-rearranged leukemia

Project description:To investigate whether co-expression of PBX3/MEIS1 can mimic that of MLL-AF9, HOXA9/MEIS1 or HOXA9/PBX3 in inducing leukemogenesis, we conducted in vivo mouse bone marrow transplantation (BMT) assays. Briefly, normal mouse bone marrow (BM) progenitor (i.e., lineage negative; Lin-) cells collected from B6.SJL (CD45.1) donor mice (CD45.1) were retrovirally co-transduced with MSCVneo-MLL-AF9+MSCV-PIG (MLL-AF9), MSCVneo-HOXA9+MSCV-PIG (HOXA9), MSCVneo-HOXA9+MSCV-PIG-MEIS1 (HOXA9+MEIS1), MSCVneo-HOXA9+MSCV-PIG-PBX3 (HOXA9+PBX3), MSCV-PIG-PBX3+MSCVneo-MEIS1 (PBX3+MEIS1), MSCVneo+MSCV-PIG-PBX3 (PBX3) , MSCVneo+MSCV-PIG-MEIS1 (MEIS1), or MSCVneo+MSCV-PIG (normal control; NC). Retrovirally transduced cells then were cultured with cytokines as well as puromycin and G418. Seven days later, the donor cells were transplanted into lethally irradiated (960 rads) 8- to 10-week-old C57BL/6 (CD45.2) recipient mice. The transplanted mice were watched for leukemogenesis. Then, gene expression profiling was conducted with bone marrow samples collected from leukemia groups and control group.

RNA-seq of LSC-like, non-LSC and Mature populations from human AML patient samples

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease and reliable detection of leukemic stem cells (LSCs) across genetic subclasses has proven difficult. We aimed to transcriptionally characterize LSCs specifically in monocyte-like AML (Mono-AML) and and primitive-like AML (Prim-AML) samples using cell surface markers. We used CD64+CD11b+ to define Mature blasts and labelled the rest as Immature. To further enrich for LSC-like cells in the Immature blasts in both Mono- and Prim-AML samples, we included GPR56, a marker for LSCs. We performed RNA sequencing on the FACS-sorted LSC-like and Mature cells from 23 AML patients.

A novel type of monocytic leukemia stem cell revealed by the clinical use of venetoclax-based therapy

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease on both inter- and intra-patient levels. In many patients, relapse is driven by a relatively small pool of Leukemia Stem Cells (LSCs) that are able to resist therapeutic perturbation and drive proliferation of the malignant AML blast pool. Due to the low frequency of LSCs and high degree of heterogeneity between and within patients, inspecting these specimens at the single cell level is critical to identifying the true relapse driving cells and tailoring therapies towards these cells.

Venetoclax with azacitidine disrupts energy metabolism and targets leukemia stem cells in patients with acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common acute leukemia in adults. Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) drive the initiation and perpetuation of AML, are quantifiably associated with worse clinical outcomes, and often persist after conventional chemotherapy resulting in relapse1-5. In this report, we show that treatment of older patients with AML with the B cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) inhibitor venetoclax in combination with azacitidine results in deep and durable remissions and is superior to conventional treatments. We hypothesized that these promising clinical results were due to targeting LSCs. Analysis of LSCs from patients undergoing treatment with venetoclax + azacitidine showed disruption of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle manifested by decreased α-ketoglutarate and increased succinate levels, suggesting inhibition of electron transport chain complex II. In vitro modeling confirmed inhibition of complex II via reduced glutathionylation of succinate dehydrogenase. These metabolic perturbations suppress oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), which efficiently and selectively targets LSCs. Our findings show for the first time that a therapeutic intervention can eradicate LSCs in patients with AML by disrupting the metabolic machinery driving energy metabolism, resulting in promising clinical activity in a patient population with historically poor outcomes.

Gene regulation in t(6;9) AML resembles that of FLT3-ITD/NPM1 AML with an altered HOX/MEIS axis [DNase-hypersensitivity]

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) represents a heterogeneous group of hematological malignancies. The t(6;9)(p23;q34) translocation, giving rise to the DEK::NUP214 fusion protein, is a rare mutation which produces a highly aggressive AML associated with extremely poor prognosis. Here, we utilise genome-wide chromatin accessibility to elucidate how a normal gene regulatory networks is disrupted by DEK::NUP214. We find that DEK::NUP214 AML forms a specific GRN related to that of mutant NPM1 AML, but also displays an elevated leukemic stem cell signature, suggesting both similar and unique therapeutic vulnerabilities.
