Pluripotent Reprogramming of Human AML Resets Leukemic Behavior and Models Therapeutic Targeting of Subclones [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Understanding the contribution of abnormal genetic and epigenetic programs to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is necessary for the integrated design of targeted therapies. To investigate this, we determined the effect of epigenetic reprogramming on leukemic behavior by generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from AML patient samples harboring MLL rearrangements. AML-derived iPSCs (AML-iPSCs) retained leukemic mutations, but reset leukemic DNA methylation/gene expression patterns and lacked leukemic potential. However, when differentiated into hematopoietic cells, AML-iPSCs reacquired the ability to give rise to leukemia in vivo and reestablished leukemic methylation/gene expression patterns, including an aberrant MLL signature, indicating that epigenetic reprogramming was insufficient to eliminate leukemic behavior. In one case, we identified distinct AML-iPSC KRAS mutant and wildtype subclones that demonstrated differential growth properties and therapeutic susceptibilities, predicting KRAS wildtype clonal relapse due to increased cytarabine resistance. Increased cytarabine resistance was further observed in a cohort of KRAS wildtype MLL-rearranged AML samples, demonstrating the utility of AML-iPSCs in predicting subclonal relapse and facilitating clonal targeting in AML.

ALOX5 exhibits anti-tumor and drug-sensitizing effects in MLL-rearranged leukemia

Project description:MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains a fatal disease with a high rate of relapse and therapeutic failure due to chemotherapy resistance. In analysis of our Affymetrix microarray profiling of human AML and normal control samples, we found that ALOX5 is especially down-regulated in MLL-rearranged AML. Our colony forming/replating and bone marrow transplantation (BMT) assays showed that Alox5 exhibited a moderate anti-tumor effect both in vitro and in vivo. Strikingly, leukemic cells with Alox5 overexpression showed a significantly higher sensitivity to the standard chemotherapeutic agents, i.e., doxorubicin (DOX) and cytarabine (Ara-C). The drug-sensitizing role of Alox5 was further confirmed in human and murine MLL-rearranged AML cell models in vitro, as well as in the in vivo MLL-rearranged AML BMT model coupled with treatment of “5+3” (i.e. DOX plus Ara-C) regimen. Our RNA-seq analysis showed that Stat and K-Ras signaling pathways were negatively correlated with Alox5 overexpression in MLL-AF9-leukemic blast cells, implying targeting those pathways likely contributes to Alox5’s functions. Collectively, our work shows that ALOX5 plays a moderate anti-tumor role and functions as a drug sensitizer, with a therapeutic potential, in MLL-rearranged AML.

Invalidation of a novel marker for therapy-resistant leukemic stem cells responsible for relapse in patients and PDX

Project description:Drug tolerant leukemic cell stem (LSC) subpopulations may explain frequent relapses in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), suggesting that these Relapse-Initiating Cells (RICs) persistent after chemotherapy represent bona fide targets to prevent drug resistance and relapse. We uncover that the G-protein coupled receptor CALCRL is expressed in RICs, and that the overexpression of CALCRL and/or of its ligand adrenomedullin (ADM) and not CGRP correlates to adverse outcome in AML. CALCRL knockdown impairs leukemic growth, decreases LSC frequency and sensitizes to cytarabine in patient-derived xenograft models.

mRAN expression profiles in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) from Wild Type and Lama4-deficient mice co-cultured with MLL-AF9 AML cells

Project description:Bone marrow (BM) niche contributes to hematopoietic regeneration and can be remodeled by leukemic cells. We have found that Lama4 deletion in mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could promote the proliferation of MLL-AF9 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and chemoresistance of the cells to chemotherapy cytarabine. However, whether Lama4 deficient MSCs are more susseptible for AML cell remodeling remains to be explored. Here we report that differential molecular alterations in Lama4 deficient MSCs compared to wild type MSCs after being exposed to the AML cells for 48hours, which might be related to the enhanced AML cell proliferation and chemoresistance.

Convergent Epigenetic Evolution Drives Relapse in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Project description:Relapse of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is highly aggressive and often treatment refractory. We analyzed previously published AML relapse cohorts and found that 40% of relapses occur without changes in driver mutations, suggesting that non-genetic mechanisms drive relapse in a large proportion of cases. We therefore characterized epigenetic patterns of AML relapse using 26 matched diagnosis-relapse samples with ATAC-seq. This analysis identified a relapse-specific chromatin accessibility signature for mutationally stable AML, suggesting that AML undergoes epigenetic evolution at relapse independent of mutational changes. Analysis of leukemia stem cell (LSC) chromatin changes at relapse indicated that this leukemic compartment underwent significantly less epigenetic evolution than non-LSCs, while epigenetic changes in non-LSCs reflected overall evolution of the bulk leukemia. Finally, we used single-cell ATAC-seq paired with mitochondrial sequencing (mtscATAC) to map clones from diagnosis into relapse along with their epigenetic features. We found that distinct mitochondrially-defined clones exhibit more similar chromatin accessibility at relapse relative to diagnosis, demonstrating convergent epigenetic evolution in relapsed AML. These results demonstrate that epigenetic evolution is a feature of relapsed AML and that convergent epigenetic evolution can occur following treatment with induction chemotherapy.

CKS1-dependent proteostatic regulation has dual roles in combating acute myeloid leukemia whilst protecting normal hematopoiesis

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematological disorder comprised of a hierarchy of quiescent leukemic stem cells and fast proliferating blasts with limited self-renewal ability. Significant plasticity in the AML epigenome and metabolome results in a high rate of drug resistance and relapse, with extremely low 2-year survival rates in the poorest cytogenetic risk patients. The current backbone of clinical induction chemotherapy reduces total disease burden, but does not deplete leukemic stem cells which reconstitute the disease in vivo, and also suffers from severe toxicity of healthy hematopoietic cells. Whilst much work has been done to identify epigenetic vulnerabilities in AML, little is known about protein dynamics, and here we explored the therapeutic inhibition of highly specific CKS1-dependent protein degradation. We report a dual role for CKS1-depdent protein degradation in specifically targeting AML, whilst protecting normal hematopoietic cells from chemotherapeutic toxicity.

Hematopoietic cell differentiation is required for initiation of acute myeloid leukemia [Microarray expression]

Project description:Leukemia initiating cells (LICs) of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may arise from self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and from committed progenitors. However, it remains unclear how leukemia-associated oncogenes instruct LIC formation from cells of different origins and if differentiation along the normal hematopoietic hierarchy is involved. Here, using murine models with the driver mutations MLL-AF9 or MOZ-TIF2, we found that regardless of the transformed cell types, myelomonocytic differentiation to the granulocyte macrophage progenitor (GMP) stage is critical for LIC generation. Blocking myeloid differentiation through disrupting the lineage-restricted transcription factor C/EBPa eliminates GMPs, blocks normal granulopoiesis, and prevents AML development. In contrast, restoring myeloid differentiation through inflammatory cytokines “rescues” AML transformation. Our findings identify myeloid differentiation as a critical step in LIC formation and AML development, thus guiding new therapeutic approaches. Primary KSL, CMP, and GMP cells from wildtype controls and C/Ebpa knockouts were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We also compared the microarray samples of leukemic granulocyte macrophage progenitor compartments (L-GMPs) from MLL-AF9 transformed control or cytokine rescued C/EBPa KO leukemic mouse bone marrow and their secondary recipients with those non-Leukemia KSLs and CMPs from MLL-AF9 transduecd KO recipients with no leukemia development.
