FLT3-ITD mutations and TET2 loss synergistically alter global DNA methylation in AML

ABSTRACT: Studies of AML patient samples have shown that specific combinations of AML disease alleles confer an adverse outcome, however, in vivo models do not exist for the majority of common, poor-prognosis genotypes. Here we show that TET2/FLT3 mutations can cooperate to induce AML in vivo using a genetically engineered mouse model, and that this model has a defined stem-cell population with a characteristic transcriptional and epigenetic profile. TET2 and FLT3 mutations cooperate to induce site-specific changes in DNA methylation and gene expression, including at loci that regulate hematopoietic differentiation. We demonstrate that re-expression of genes that are silenced in TET2/FLT3-mutant AML restores normal differentiation, demonstrating that the epigenetic program of TET2/FLT3-mutant AML cells can be reversed in vitro and in vivo.

Using ERRBS, we profiled genome-wide DNA methylation patterns of the hematopoietic stem cells (LSK) population in Wide-type, Flt3-IDT, Tet2-/-, and Tet2-/-Flt3-IDT mice, each in triplicates

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.

CircMYBL2 Regulates FLT3-ITD FLT3AML Translation in AML

Project description:CircMYBL2 is more highly expressed in AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations than in those without the FLT3-ITD mutation. We found that circMYBL2 knockdown specifically inhibits proliferation and promotes the differentiation of FLT3-ITD AML cells in vitro and in vivo. We used the ribosome profiling and RNA-seq libraries sequenced with Illumina HiSeq 2500 to identify the mRNA that circMYBL2 targeted. Interestingly, we found that circMYBL2 significantly influences the protein level of mutant FLT3 kinase, which contributes to the activation of FLT3-ITD-dependent signaling pathways. Mechanistically, circMYBL2 enhanced the translational efficiency of FLT3 kinase by increasing the binding of PTBP1 to FLT3 mRNA. Moreover, circMYBL2 knockdown impaired the cytoactivity of inhibitor-resistant FLT3-ITD-positive cells, with a significant decrease in FLT3 kinase expression, followed by the inactivation of its downstream pathways. In summary, we are the first to reveal a circRNA that specifically influences FLT3-ITD AML and regulates FLT3 kinase levels through translational regulation, suggesting that circMYBL2 may be a potential therapeutic target for FLT3-ITD AML.

Glutaminolysis is a metabolic dependency in FLT3 ITD Acute Myeloid Leukemia unmasked by FLT3 Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition

Project description:FLT3ITD are common mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and carry a particularly bad prognosis. Although new generation FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have shown promising results, the outcome of FLT3-mutated AML patients remains poor and demands the identification of novel, specific and validated therapeutic targets for this highly aggressive AML subtype. Utilizing an unbiased genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen, we identify GLS, the first enzyme in glutamine metabolism, as synthetically lethal with FLT3 TKI treatment. Using complementary metabolomic and gene-expression analysis, we demonstrate that glutamine metabolism, through its ability to support both mitochondrial function and cellular redox metabolism, becomes a metabolic dependency of FLT3ITD AML, specifically unmasked by FLT3-TKI treatment. We extend these findings to AML subtypes driven by other tyrosine kinase activating mutations, and validate the role of GLS as a clinically actionable therapeutic target in both primary AML and in vivo models. Our work highlights the role of metabolic adaptations as a resistance mechanism to several TKI inhibitors, and suggests glutaminolysis as a therapeutically targetable vulnerability when combined with specific TKI in FLT3ITD and other TK activating mutation driven leukemias.

PRMT1-mediated FLT3 arginine methylation is required for maintenance of FLT3-ITD+ Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Project description:The presence of FLT3-ITD mutations in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated with poor clinical outcome. FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), although effective in kinase ablation, do not eliminate FLT3-ITD+ leukemia stem cells (LSCs) which are potential sources of disease relapse, prompting us to ask whether FLT3-ITD protein regulates the AML LSCs survival through a kinase-independent mechanism. Here, we show that expression of PRMT1, the primary type I arginine methyltransferase, significantly increases in LSC-enriched CD34+CD38- populations relative to normal counterparts. Genetic PRMT1 depletion blocked AML CD34+ cell survival, and had more potent effects in AML cells from patients harboring FLT3-ITD. Our genome wide analysis of gene expression and PRMT1 conditional KO mouse study confirmed that PRMT1 preferentially cooperates with FLT3-ITD contributing to AML cell maintenance. Mechanistically, PRMT1 catalyzed FLT3-ITD protein methylation at arginines 972/973, and PRMT1 promoted leukemia cell growth in a FLT3 methylation-dependent manner. Moreover, effects of FLT3-ITD methylation in AML cells were in part due to crosstalk with FLT3-ITD phosphorylation at tyrosine 969 (Y969). Importantly, FLT3 methylation persisted in FLT3-ITD+ AML cells following TKI (AC220) treatment, indicating that methylation occurs independently of kinase activity. Finally, in both patient-derived xenograft (PDX) and murine AML models, combined administration of AC220 with a type I PRMT inhibitor (MS023) enhanced elimination of FLT3-ITD+ AML relative to AC220 treatment alone. Our study demonstrates that PRMT1-mediated FLT3 methylation promotes LSC activity and suggests that combining PRMT1 inhibition with FLT3 TKI treatment could be a promising approach to selectively target FLT3-ITD+ LSCs.

Alkynyl nicotinamides with antileukemic activity to treat poor prognosis AM

Project description:FLT3 activating mutations cause myeloproliferative neoplasms by deregulating hematopoietic progenitor cell growth, and acute myeloid leukemia is on the rise. Investigational drugs targeting mutant FLT3, including Quizartinib and Crenolanib, develop inherent and acquired resistance to FLT3 targeted therapy. FLT3 inhibitor resistance in AML is dependent on co-occurring mutations, parallel survival pathways, and/or subsequent FLT3-ITD mutations. Despite the high prevalence of FLT3 mutations and their clinical significance in AML, there are few targeted therapeutic options. We identified two novel naphthyridine-based FLT3 inhibitors (HSN608 and HSN748) that specifically target FLT3-ITD at sub-nanomolar concentrations and are effective against drug-resistant secondary mutations. In the current study, we evaluated these compounds antileukemic activity against FLT3-ITD and gatekeeper mutations in drug-resistant AML, relapsed/refractory AMLs with FLT3 mutations, and in vivo mouse models with combinations of epigenetic mutations TET2 with FLT3-ITD, and AML patients PDX. In these model systems, we demonstrate that HSN748 outperforms the FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitor Gilteritinib in terms of inhibitory activity against FLT3-ITD.

FLT3-ITD mutation expands dendritic cells and alters CD4+ T cells in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is a critical receptor for functional dendritic cell (DC) development. Mutations associated with FLT3 are commonly observed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) results in ligand-independent constitutive signaling and promotes tumor survival. Basic characterization of dendritic cells in the context of AML is lacking, therefore we investigated how FLT3-ITD impacts DC homeostasis and what downstream affects on the immune system may be. During AML we found that patient bone marrow DC homesostasis is disrupted and in a mouse model of AML we found that T-bet- cDC2s are increased in vivo and both Treg and Th17 cells are increased. In vitro co-cultures of AML DCs and naive OT-II cells results in more Th17 phenotype by IL-17A secretion. We propose that in FLT3-ITD+ AML DC homeostasis is dysregulated and Th17 cells are increased as a result.
