Project description:We designed oligonucleotide tiling arrays spanning the t(4;14) breakpoint region on chromosome 4 to identify additional oncogenic RNAs in an unbiased fashion. Four (4) multiple myeloma bone marrow samples with t(4;14) and twelve (12) MM BM samples without t(4;14) were analyzed. Furthermore, seven (7) bladder (1 normal, 6 malignant), eight (8) colon (1 normal, 7 malignant) and eight (8) esophagus (2 normal, 6 maligant) tissue samples were analyzed. Finally, five (5) multiple myeloma cell line samples with t(4;14) - three (3) of LP-1 and two (2) of H929 - and three (3) MM cell line samples and three (3) non-MM cell line samples without t(4;14) - three (3) of U266 and three (3) of Hela - were analyzed.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by recurrent chromosomal translocations. The multiple myeloma SET domain (MMSET), identified by its fusion to the IgH locus in t(4;14) MM, is universally overexpressed and has been suggested to play an important role in tumorigenicity in t(4;14) MM. In order to identify downstream functional targets of MMSET, we knocked down MMSET expression with shRNAs in KMS11, a t(4;14) MM cell line, and identified differentially expressed genes by gene expression microarray analysis.

KMS11 cells were treated with shRNAs for 48 h. Total RNA was extracted by using the Qiagen RNeasy Mini kit (Germany). Gene expression was performed using the GeneChip Human Genome U133A Array (Affymetrix) following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Data analysis was performed using GeneSpring software from Agilent Technologies.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by recurrent chromosomal translocations. The translocation t(4;14)(p16;q32) is one of the most common translocation in MMs, affecting 15% of patients, and is associated with very poor prognosis. The histone methyltransferase (HMTase) MMSET is universally overexpressed in t(4;14) MM as a result of the t(4;14) translocation. MMSET is capable of producing 3 major isoforms, the full length MMSET II, short isoforms REIIBP and MMSET I. MMSET II has been suggested to play an important tumorigenic role in t(4;14) MM, but little is yet known about whether and how the MMSET short isoforms contribute to MM tumorigenesis. The aim of this study is to characterize MMSET I roles and determine its downstream targets in t(4;14) MM. In t(4;14) MM cells MMSET I knockdown with shRNAs induced cell apoptosis, reduced colony formation and inhibited tumorigenicity in vivo. We also found MMSET I knockdown decreased GLO1 expression, and ectopic MMSET I increased GLO1 expression, suggesting that MMSET I is an upstream regulator of GLO1. Further analysis indicated that MMSET I bound to GLO1 promoter region and depended on its C-terminus to regulate GLO1 expression. Our preliminary data suggested that MMSET I is an oncoprotein and could regulate GLO1 expression in t(4;14) multiple myeloma cells.

Project description:The t(4;14) translocation is a high-risk cytogenetic abnormality in multiple myeloma (MM) that results in overexpression of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) and enhanced MM proliferation, leading to poor prognosis. Herein, we carried out a high-throughput screen on 1855 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved pharmaceuticals and identified all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), which alone has no anti-MM effect, as a potent drug that enhances the cytotoxic effects of immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) in t(4;14) MM cells. Mechanistically, ATRA activates retinoic acid receptor β (RARβ), which then binds to retinoic acid response elements in the FGFR3 promoter. IMiDs enhanced nuclear translocation of histone deacetylase (HDAC)-5 and 3 by reducing HDAC5 Ser498 phosphorylation levels. RARβ, HDAC5 and HDAC3 formed a co-repressor complex that reduced chromatin accessibility and H3K27 acetylation in FGFR3 promoter, FGFR3 expression, and suppressed phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT signaling pathways, leading to more MM cell death. Similarly, CD2314, a selective RARβ agonist, sensitized and resensitized t(4;14) MM cells to IMiDs in vitro and in vivo. Thus, these findings underscore the therapeutic potential of ATRA and RARβ agonists in enhancing the efficacy of IMiD-based treatments for t(4;14) MM and offer a promising strategy to overcome IMiD resistance and improve outcomes in this high-risk subgroup.

Project description:The t(4;14) chromosomal translocation drives overexpression of the histone methyltransferase NSD2 and defines a high-risk segment of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Herein, we report the discovery of NSD2-LDD, a cereblon-recruiting and PWWP1-mediated ligand directed degrader (LDD) that selectively and potently eliminates full length and PWWP1 domain containing NSD2 protein. NSD2-LDD treatment induces global loss of H3K36me2 leading to promoter-proximal spreading of H3K27me3 and re-wiring of cis-regulatory interactions that reverse t(4;14) transcriptional programs. These effects suppress MM disease-associated phenotypes including stromal adhesion, three-dimensional colony growth and paracrine signaling. By integrating patient single cell profiles with model 3D epigenomic and spatial transcriptomics, we delineate t(4;14) disease state and the tumor-intrinsic reprogramming and resultant remodeling of the bone marrow microenvironment upon NSD2 degradation. In cell line derived xenografts and genetically engineered mouse models of t(4;14), NSD2-LDD extends median survival accompanied by tumoral H3K36me2 loss and niche re-modelling. Collectively, this work validates NSD2 as a tractable dependency and supports clinical development of NSD2 degradation as a novel, targeted therapeutic strategy in high-risk MM.

Project description:Recurrent chromosomal translocations are central to the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma (MM), with t(4;14) translocation being the second-most common and associated with poor prognosis. The nuclear receptor-binding SET domain 2 (NSD2) is overexpressed as a result of the translocation and has been suggested to be the primary oncogenic factor in t(4;14) MM. However, the detailed oncogenic mechanism of NSD2 in MM is still not completely understood. To address the relevant pathways downstream of NSD2 that contributes to myelomagenesis, SILAC-based mass-spectrometry analysis was used to determine NSD2-interacting proteins. We identified 74 proteins and in silico analysis showed that one of them, SMARCA2, interacts with NSD2. Comparison of SMARCA2 expression across MM cell lines with different translocation statuses showed that SMARCA2 was highly expressed in t(4;14) MM cells but not in non-t(4;14) MM cells. SMARCA2 knockdown in t(4;14) MM cells showed reduced cell growth and capacity to form colonies. We further investigated how NSD2 and SMARCA2 regulate the expressions of key myeloma genes, such as PRL3 and CCND1. This study reveals a spectrum of NSD2-interacting proteins involved in different biological pathways, indicating the importance of NSD2 in t(4;14) MM. The interaction between NSD2 and SMARCA2 in regulating the expression of CCND1 and PRL3 suggests the potential of SMARCA2 as a novel therapeutic target for t(4;14) MM.
