MiRNA expression profiling of 21 JMML patients and 4 healthy donors

ABSTRACT: Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) is a very rare and aggressive stem cell disease that mainly occurs in young children. RAS activation constitutes the core component of oncogenic signaling. In addition, the leukemic blasts of a quarter of JMML patients present with monosomy 7 (-7), whereas more than half of the patients show enhanced age-adjusted fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the current standard of care. This results in an event-free survival of 50 - 60%, indicating that novel molecular driven therapeutic options are urgently needed. Using gene expression profiling in an extensive series of 82 patient samples, we aimed at understanding the molecular biology behind JMML and identified a previously unrecognized molecular subgroup characterized by high LIN28B expression. Interestingly, LIN28B overexpression was significantly correlated with higher HbF levels whereas patients with -7 seldom showed enhanced LIN28B expression. In line with LIN28B’s role as mediator of fetal hematopoiesis, this explains the biology behind the observation that patients with -7 are rarely diagnosed with high age-adjusted HbF levels. In addition, this new fetal-like JMML subgroup presented with reduced levels of most members of the let-7 microRNA family and showed characteristic overexpression of genes involved in fetal hematopoiesis and stem cell self-renewal. Finally, high LIN28B expression was associated with poor clinical outcome in our JMML patient series, but not independent from other prognostic factors such as age and age-adjusted HbF levels. In conclusion, we identified LIN28B as a crucial molecular player at the heart of a novel fetal-like subgroup in JMML.

LIN28B is overexpressed in specific subtypes of pediatric leukemia and regulates lncRNA H19 [K562]

Project description:The stem cell gene LIN28B was recently shown to be overexpressed in a foetal-like subgroup of juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia. Given the involvement of LIN28B in a variety of solid paediatric cancers, we conducted a meta-analysis of LIN28B levels using publicly available gene expression data of 1361 paediatric leukaemia samples. Interestingly, this analysis revealed LIN28B overexpression in 102 childhood leukaemia patients (7.5%), suggesting oncogenic activity for LIN28B in the context of paediatric haematological diseases. As the mode of action of LIN28B during normal and malignant haematopoiesis remains largely unexplored, we subsequently analysed the transcriptional consequences of LIN28B modulation on normal and malignant haematopoietic cells and identified the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 as the first LIN28B-regulated lncRNA. K562 cells were retrovirally transduced with shRNA GN36578 against LIN28B and a shRNA-miR non-targeting control TRH1103 (both Transomic), selected with puromycin and hybridized on Agilent microarray.

Identification and characterizaton of RBM12 as a novel regulator of fetal hemoglobin expression [RNA-seq]

Project description:The fetal-to-adult hemoglobin transition is clinically relevant as reactivation of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) significantly reduces morbidity and mortality associated with sickle cell disease (SCD) and b-thalassemia. Most studies on the developmental regulation of the globin genes, including genome-wide genetics screens, have focused on DNA binding proteins including BCL11A and ZBTB7A/LRF and their cofactors. Our understanding of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) in this process is much more limited. Two RBPs, LIN28B and IGF2BP1 are known post-transcriptional regulators of HbF production but a global view of RBPs is still lacking. Here, we carried out a CRISPR/Cas9-based screen targeting RBPs harboring RNA methyltransferase and/or RRM domains and identified RBM12 as a novel HbF suppressor. Depletion of RBM12 induced HbF expression and attenuated cell sickling in erythroid cells derived from SCD patients with minimal detrimental effects on cell maturation. Transcriptome and proteome profiling revealed that RBM12 functions independently of major known HbF regulators. Enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation followed by high throughput sequencing (eCLIP-Seq) revealed strong preferential binding of RBM12 to 5’UTRs of transcripts, narrowing down the mechanism of RBM12 action. Notably, we pinpointed the first of five RRM domains as essential, and, in conjunction with a linker domain, as sufficient for RBM12-mediated HbF regulation. Our characterization of RBM12 as a negative regulator of HbF points to an additional regulatory layer of the fetal-to-adult hemoglobin switch and broadens the pool of potential therapeutic targets for SCD and b-thalassemia.

Inflammatory response in HSPC of PTPN11-mutated JMML

Project description:Activating mutations in PTPN11 gene are the most frequent in JMML patients. Here we explore the transcriptome of HSPC (hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells) sorted from sporadic JMML patients with PTPN11 mutation and from healthy age matched donnors. Bulk transcriptome of sorted HSPC reveals an inflammatory gene expression signature which may represent a future target for JMML therapy.
