A Druggable TCF4- and BRD4-dependent Transcriptional Network Sustains Malignancy in Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (RNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is an aggressive and largely incurable hematologic malignancy originating from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). Using RNA interference screening, we identified the E-box transcription factor TCF4 as a master regulator of the BPDCN oncogenic program. TCF4 served as a faithful diagnostic marker of BPDCN, and its downregulation caused the loss of the BPDCN-specific expression program and apoptosis. High-throughput drug screening revealed that bromodomain and extra-terminal domain inhibitors (BETi's) induce BPDCN apoptosis, which was attributable to disruption of the TCF4-dependent transcriptional network and loss of BPDCN-specific super-enhancers. BETi's retarded the growth of BPDCN xenografts, supporting their clinical evaluation in this recalcitrant malignancy.

A druggable TCF4- and BRD4-dependent transcriptional network sustains malignancy in blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm

Project description:We combined loss-of-function RNA interference screening and a high-throughput drug toxicity screening to define novel therapeutic targets in blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN), an aggressive hematologic malignancy for which no curative therapy exists. The E-box transcription factor TCF4 emerged as the master transcriptional regulator of the BPDCN oncogenic program, a finding that can be exploited for the accurate molecular diagnosis of BPDCN. Genetic interference with the TCF4-dependent network induced a rewiring of BPDCN gene expression, resulting in apoptosis. Treatment of BPDCN lines with bromodomain and extra-terminal domain inhibitors (BETi's) down regulated TCF4 and its target gene network, inducing apoptosis both in vitro and retarding growth of BPDCN xenografts in vivo, supporting the clinical evaluation of BETi's in this lethal cancer.

Newly-Discovered Neural Features Expand the Pathobiological Knowledge of Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm

Project description:Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and highly aggressive hematologic malignancy originating from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). The microRNA expression profile of BPDCN was compared to that of normal pDCs and the impact of miRNA dysregulation on the BPDCN transcriptional program was assessed. MiRNA and gene expression pro-filing data were integrated to obtain the BPDCN miRNA-regulatory network. The biological process mainly dysregulated by this network was predicted to be neurogenesis, a phenomenon raising growing interest in solid tumors. Neurogenesis was explored in BPDCN by querying different molecular sources (RNA sequencing, Chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing, and immunohistochemistry). It was shown that BPDCN cells upregulated neural mitogen genes possibly critical for tumor dissemination, expressed neuronal progenitor markers involved in cell migration, exchanged acetylcholine neurotransmitter, and overexpressed multiple neural re-ceptors that may stimulate tumor proliferation, migration and cross-talk with the nervous system. Most neural genes upregulated in BPDCN are currently investigated as therapeutic targets.

Project description:Molecular profiling of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm reveals a unique pattern and suggests selective sensitivity to nf-kb pathway inhibition To better understand the pathobiology of BPDCN and discover new targets for effective therapies, the gene expression profile (GEP) of 25 BPDCN samples was analyzed and compared with that of pDCs, their postulated normal counterpart Raw matrix per probe not available. Raw matrix collapsed by gene available as suppplementary file (GSE62014_non-normalized.txt).

Project description:Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare aggressive malignancy derived from plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursors. We subjected tumor biopsies from patients with BPDCN to whole-genome sequencing and RNA-sequencing to investigate genomic alterations and deregulated gene expression in the disease.

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN)_cases

Project description:Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare hematologic malignancy that is most similar in expression profiles to plasmacytoid dendritic cells. However, patients often exhibit features of AML and can progress to AML. In this project, we will determine the differentially and commonly expressed genes between BPDCN and AML specimens. Available BPDCN and TET2-mutated AML specimens were taken for transcriptome microarray analysis.
