Project description:Gene expression profiling was carried out for RNA extracted from Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) biopsies for 76 patients using the Illumina DASL version 3 platform. The patients were then classified into BL and DLBCL by moleclar classifier proposed in the article.

Project description:Recently global gene expression profiling of patients samples lead to a molecular definition of Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) with lymphocyte enhancer-binding factor 1 (LEF1) as a signature gene. Here we report the discovery of nucleic LEF1 in a very high proportion of BL cases (15/18) and LEF1 target genes. Germinal center B cells were devoid of detectable nuclear LEF1 expression as mantle cell lymphoma (0/5), marginal zone lymphoma (0/6), follicular lymphoma (0/12) or diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (1/31). Using whole genome gene expression profiling after transient knockdown of LEF1 in BL cell lines, new LEF1 target genes were identified. The joint expression of these genes in primary BL samples shows that LEF1 is not only expressed aberrantly in BL but also transcriptionally active. Our study identified aberrantly expressed LEF1 and its target genes suggesting an important functional role in BLs.

Project description:Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive B-cell neoplasm that is currently treated by intensive chemotherapy in combination with anti-CD20 antibodies. Because of their toxicity, current treatment regimens are often not suitable for elderly patients or for patients in developing countries where BL is endemic. Hence, there is a need for targeted therapies. In this study, we performed a compound screen in 17 BL cell lines to identify small molecule inhibitors affecting cell survival. We observed that, among other compounds, inhibitors of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) induce apoptosis in BL cells in vitro at concentrations that did not affect normal B cells. By global proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling, we found that in BL, HSP90 inhibition compromises activity of the pivotal B cell antigen receptor (BCR)-proximal effector spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK), which we identified as an HSP90 client protein. Consistently, expression of constitutively active TEL-SYK counteracted the apoptotic effect of HSP90 inhibition. Hence, our study provides a molecular rationale for the use of HSP90 inhibitors in the treatment of BL by demonstrating that HSP90 inhibition interferes with tonic BCR signaling and thus impairs BL cell survival.

Project description:In Burkitt lymphoma (BL), an aggressive germinal-center (GC) derived non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma characterized by MYC translocations as early transforming event, the apoptotic properties of MYC must have been overcome by pro-survival signals. Whereas activation of the pro-survival factor NFkappaB is not eminent in BL, PI3K signalling, which mediates B cell receptor associated survival signals in mature B cells, might be the cooperating event. Here we prove this hypothesis by the generation of BL in mice upon concordant expression of MYC and activation of PI3K in GC B cells. Unlike existing murine BL-like models, our tumour model fully phenocopies primary human BL and reflects the complexity of the disease with regard to histological appearance, surface marker expression, and characteristic gene expression profiles. Like in human BL, tumour monoclonality indicated a multistep pathogenesis underlining MYC and PI3K as predisposing events that invariably lead to GC-derived BL formation. In accordance, copy number alteration analysis revealed genomic regions involved in BL pathogenesis.

Project description:To identify genes mediating tumor transformation we compared the transcriptome of five Burkitt lymphoma (BL) cell lines (tumor cells) with that of a pool of three lymphoblastoid B-cell lines (LCL; immortal, but not tumor cells). Each BL cell line was considered as a biological replicate. BL cell lines: DG-75, Ramos, BL2, Mutu-I and Akata. LCL cell lines: X50-7, IB4 and Dana.

Project description:For sporadic Burkitt lymphoma (BL) few genetic lesions are known besides the pathognomonic IG-MYC translocations. Thirtynine molecularly-defined BL were analyzed with high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism chips for genomic imbalances and uniparental disomy (UPD). Imbalances were correlated to transcript profiling and selected miRNA analysis. Translocations affecting the MYC locus were studied by fluoresence in situ hybridization. We detected 528 copy number changes, defining 29 recurrently imbalanced regions. 518 regions of UPD were found, but these were rarely recurrent. Combined imbalance mapping and transcript profiling revealed a profound correlation between copy number and expression. Several recurrent imbalances affected the MYC pathway: The miRNA-supercluster 17-92 was frequently gained and the transcription factor E2F2 was recurrently deleted. Molecular BL lacking MYC translocations showed MYC gains. Amplifications of the polymerase iota gene were associated with increased genomic instability. The present findings suggests that UPDs play no major role in the pathogenesis of BL, whereas some genes may contribute to BL development through gene dosage effects. Amplifications of the polymerase iota gene may be functionally linked with increased genomic instability in BL. The pattern and rarity of chromosomal changes detectable even at the high resolution employed here, together with aberrations of genes regulating MYC activity, support that deregulation of the MYC pathway is the major force driving BL pathogenesis, but show that this deregulation is more complex than previously known.

All samples were obtained from murine lymphomas (Cgamma1-cre; R26StopFLMYC;R26StopFLP110* animals). Cells used for microarray analysis were sorted reporter positive cells. Tumour cells were compared to a matched germline DANN sample to identify acquired aberrations.
