Dual Mechanisms by which MiR-125b Represses IRF4 to Induce Myeloid and B cell Leukemias

ABSTRACT: The oncomir microRNA-125b (miR-125b) is up-regulated in a variety of human neoplastic blood disorders and constitutive up-regulation of miR-125b in mice can promote myeloid and B cell leukemia. We found that miR-125b promotes myeloid and B cell neoplasm by inducing tumorigenesis in hematopoietic progenitor cells. Our study demonstrates that miR-125b induces myeloid leukemia by enhancing myeloid progenitor output from stem cells as well as inducing immortality, self-renewal, and tumorigenesis in myeloid progenitors. Through functional and genetic analyses, we demonstrated that miR-125b induces myeloid and B cell leukemia by inhibiting IRF4 but through distinct mechanisms; it induces myeloid leukemia through repressing IRF4 at the mRNA level without altering the genomic DNA and induces B cell leukemia via genetic deletion of the gene encoding IRF4.

The cancer myeloid (Cd11b+ sorted) and B cells (CD19+ sorted) were harvested from mice that over-express miR-125b. The genomic DNA was extracted from these cells. A total of 4 cancer samples (Two myeloid cancer samples and two B cell cancer samples) were analyzed. As control, genomic DNA from cells harvested from healthy C57bl/6 mice were harvested.

RNA-sequencing analysis of NB4 cells overexpressing miR-125b

Project description:To better understand the mechanisms of blockage of myeloid differentiation and apoptosis and induction of proliferation by miR-125b, we proceeded to identify miR-125b target genes involved in these pathways. We analyzed the total cellular gene expression pattern by RNA-sequencing of the parental NB4 myeloid cell line and that transiently transfected with miR-125b. We generated four cDNA libraries corresponding to duplicates of miR-125b and control cells. Compare the gene expression levels in miR control transfected cells with that in miR-125b transfected NB4 cells.

RNA-sequencing analysis of 32Dclone3 cells overexpressing miR-125b

Project description:To better understand the mechanisms of blockage of myeloid differentiation and apoptosis and induction of proliferation by miR-125b, we preceded to identify miR-125b target genes involved in these pathways. We analyzed the total cellular gene expression pattern by RNA-sequencing of the parental 32Dclone3 myeloid cell line and that ectopically expressing miR-125b. We generated four cDNA libraries corresponding to duplicates of miR-125b and control cells. Compare the gene expression level in vector transduced 32Dclone3 cells with that in miR-125b transduced 32Dclone3 cells.

Hoxa9 and Meis1 cooperatively induce addiction to Syk signaling by suppressing miR-146a in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:The transcription factor Meis1 drives myeloid leukemogenesis in the context of Hox gene overexpression but is currently considered undruggable. We therefore investigated whether myeloid progenitor cells transformed by Hoxa9 and Meis1 become addicted to targetable signaling pathways. A comprehensive (phospho)proteomic analysis revealed that Meis1 increased Syk protein expression and activity. Syk upregulation occurs through a Meis1-dependent feed-forward loop. By dissecting this loop, we show that Syk is a direct target of miR-146a, whose expression is indirectly regulated by Meis1 through the transcription factor PU.1. In the context of Hoxa9 overexpression, Syk induces Meis1, recapitulating several leukemogenic features of Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia. Finally, we show that Syk inhibition disrupts the identified regulatory loop, prolonging survival of mice with Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia.

Identification of miR-125b-2 target genes

Project description:The goal of this study is to define miR-125b-2 target genes in the hematopoietic system by genetic alteration of miR-125b expression levels. Here we report the identification of miR-125b-2 targets in the hematopoietic system by repressing miR125b in megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) cell lines and overexpressing miR-125b-2 in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (CD34+-HSPCs)

MicroRNA-155 is upregulated in Hoxa9/Meis1 leukemia inducing cells but is dispensable for in vivo transformation and leukemia development

Project description:OBJECTIVE: The microRNA miR-155 is upregulated in Hoxa9 and Meis1 leukemia inducing cells (LIC) , and miR-155 accelerates the onset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) together with Hoxa9 but through largely unknown molecular mechanisms. The impact of miR-155 on accelerated onset of leukemia in the context of Hoxa9 and Meis1 is also unclear. To further resolve this, we performed a gene expression profiling, in the context of Hoxa9 and Meis1 leukemogenesis with miR-155 knocked out. RESULTS: Gene expression profiling of Hoxa9/Meis1 LIC without miR-155 does not delay the onset of AML and the gene expression changes are small

Role of miR-125b in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL)

Project description:B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is often associated with chromosomal translocations leading to the deregulation of proto-oncogenes. MicroRNAs can also be affected by chromosomal alterations and thus contribute to carcinogenesis. The microRNA miR-125b-1 is over-expressed in B-ALL cases with the t(11;14)(q24;q34) translocation, therefore we sought to determine the role of this microRNA in B-cell fate. We used murine pre-BI cells alongside murine and human leukemic B-cell lines to show that miR-125b expression enhances proliferation by targeting Bright/ARID3a, an activator of immunoglobulin heavy-chain transcription. Accordingly, this target gene was down-regulated in B-ALL patients with the t(11;14)(q24;q34) translocation. Repression of Bright/ARID3A blocked differentiation and conferred a survival advantage to Ba/F3 cells under IL3 starvation. In addition, over-expression of miR-125b protected pre-BI and leukemic B-cell lines from apoptosis through blockade of caspase activation via a mechanism that was independent of p53 and BAK1. In summary, miR-125b can act as an oncogene in B-ALL by targeting ARID3a and mediating its repression, thus leading to a blockage in differentiation, increased proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis. To identify specific targets of mir-125b, we overexpressed miR-125b as well as a control miRNA in 70Z/3 and 18-81 pre-B leukaemia cells. Chemically synthesized miRNA duplexes, called pre-miR-125b and miR-Neg, were purchased from Ambion. The cells were transfected with pre-miRNA at a final concentration of 10 nM using Lipofectamin RNAi MAX (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The medium was replaced 8 hours after transfection. RNA samples were harvested at 48 hours post-transfection. 2 independent experiments were carried out for a total of 8 samples labeled with Cy3 dye (one color design).
