Frequent derepression of the Iroquois homeobox gene IRX3 in human acute leukemia

ABSTRACT: The Iroquois homeodomain transcription factor gene IRX3 is highly expressed in the developing nervous system, limb buds and heart. In adults, expression levels specify risk of obesity. We now report a significant functional role for IRX3 in human acute leukemia. While transcript levels are very low in normal human bone marrow cell populations, high level IRX3 expression is observed in ~30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), ~50% of patients with T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia and ~20% of patients with B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia, typically in association with high levels of HOXA9. Expression of IRX3 alone was sufficient to immortalise murine bone marrow stem and progenitor cells, and induce T- and B-lineage leukemias in vivo with incomplete penetrance. IRX3 knockdown induced terminal differentiation of AML cells. Combined IRX3 and Hoxa9 expression in murine bone marrow stem and progenitor cells substantially enhanced the morphologic and phenotypic differentiation block of the resulting AMLs by comparison with Hoxa9-only leukemias, through suppression of a myelomonocytic program. Likewise, in cases of primary human AML, high IRX3 expression is associated with reduced myelomonocytic differentiation. Thus, tissue-inappropriate derepression of IRX3 modulates the cellular consequences of HOX gene expression to enhance differentiation block in human AML.

Search for a novel therapeutic target in myeloid leukemia

Project description:Antibody-based therapy for cancer is now one of the most successful and important strategies for treating patients with hematological malignancies. However, the lack of efficient tumor-associated antigens restricts the targeting therapy of myeloid leukemia. Analysis of the gene expression proï¬les of primary bone marrow samples from human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients or healthy donors was to identify and expand novel targets for the treatment of myeloid leukemias. we found that epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is overexpressed in patients with AML. we analyzed the gene expression proï¬les of bone marrow mononuclear cells from 2 human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and 2 healthy donors using an oligonucleotide microarray, to identify up-regulated genes in AML samples comparing with healthy tissues.

CENAT-AML-experiment1

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common and severe acute leukemia in adults. It is a heterogeneous disease where the subset of molecularly different types, presenting various morphological features and differentiation stage, can be distinguished. Genomic research of leukemias is conducted since 1999 and large cohort studies shown that particular genetic alterations correspond with specific gene expression signatures. However, not always they provide clinically relevant information. The most unknown group is cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML, 40-49% of all AML cases). The aim of our experiment was to determine selected gene expression profiles in CN-AML, using small, boutique microarray. The array contained 933 oligonucleotide probes, mainly complementary to acute myeloid leukemia markers, genes involved in leukemic transformation and myeloid cell proliferation, differentiation and maturation. Our test dataset included 40 hybridizations: 24 corresponding with blood and bone marrow samples collected from 12 patients with AML M1 or M2 FAB subtype and 16 corresponding with healthy control samples. Total RNA was extracted from the mononuclear cell fractions, reversibly transcribed to cDNA and labeled with Alexa 647 dye. The common reference was RNA isolated from HL-60 cell culture, labeled with Alexa 555 dye.

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.

Transcription profiling of mouse bone marrow cells expressing NUP98/HHEX or NUP98/HOXA9 a new oncogenic fusion with acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:We have cloned and characterized a fusion gene NUP98/HHEX1 resulting from t(7;10) from a patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). As NUP98/HHEX acts as an aberrant transcriptional activator, putative targets were searched upon transient expression of the fusion in primary murine bone marrow cells. Experiment Overall Design: Murine bone marrow cells were transduced with a retrovirus (MSCV-IRES-GFP, MIG) expressing either NUP98/HHEX or NUP98/HOXA9 (or the empty vector), mRNA was isolated after 72h. Each experiment was performed in triplicates.

The Growth factor independence 1 (GFI1) 36N variant predisposes to Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) by inducing epigenetic changes at the Hoxa9 locus

Project description:GFI136N is a coding Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) in the gene GFI1 that increases the risk for Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by 60%. It is present in 3-5% of Caucasians and has a prevalence of 12% among AML patients. We generated knockin mice expressing either the human GFI136N variant or the more common GFI136S form and observed that GFI136N, in contrast to GFI136S, lacked the ability to bind to the Gfi1 target gene and leukemia associated transcription factor Hoxa9 in myeloid precursors and failed to initiate the histone modifications that regulate HoxA9 expression. Consistent with this, GFI136N heterozygous AML patients showed increased HOXA9 expression compared to control patients. In the knockin mice, granulo-monocytic pogenitors (GMPs), a bone marrow subset from which AML can arise, show a proliferative expansion in the presence of the GFI136N variant. Finally, the GFI136N variant increased colony formation and proliferation of myeloid precursors induced by the onco-fusion proteins MLL/AF9 or AML1/Eto9a and accelerated the onset of a KRAS-driven myelo-proliferative disease. Our data suggest that GFI136N predisposes to AML by deregulating the expression of Hoxa9, a locus highly relevant for AML, thereby inducing a pre-leukemic state in myeloid precursors that can give rise to AML. 3 samples (2 histone modifications, 1 transcription factor)

The role of Hoxa9 and Meis1 in development of acute myeloid leukemia (mRNA)

Project description:OBJECTIVE: MEIS1, a HOX cofactor, collaborates with multiple HOX proteins, such as HOXA9, to accelerate the onset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) through largely unknown molecular mechanisms. To further resolve these mechanisms, we conducted a structure-function analysis of Meis1 and gene expression profiling, in the context of Hoxa9 leukemogenesis. RESULTS: We show, in a murine bone marrow transplantation model, that the homeodomain of Meis1 is required for leukemogenic collaboration with Hoxa9. Gene expression profiling of a Hoxa9 preleukemic cell line transduced with wild-type or Meis1 homeodomain mutant reveal deregulation of multiple genes including a set not previously implicated as Meis1 targets. Murine bone marrow cells transduced with Hoxa9-GFP + empty MIY vector were compared to Hoxa9+Meis1 cells or Hoxa9+Meis1 with deleted homeodomain (DHD) cells and cultured for three or four weeks before harvest for miRNA expression array. Four independent experiments were performed for each of the three different conditions included in the study. Cells from all samples were also transplanted into lethally irradiated mice to test for their transforming and leukemic potential.

Hoxa9/meis1-transgenic zebrafish develops acute myeloid leukemia-like disease with rapid onset and high-penetrance

Project description:HOXA9/MEIS1 plays a synergistic causative role and overexpresses frequently in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Hoxa9/Meis1 transgenic murine results in rapid leukemic transformation of primary bone marrow cells. However, murine model is not suitable to perform a high-throughput phenotypic screen in vivo and identify compounds for AML therapy. A transgenic zebrafish overexpresses hoxa9/meis1 need to generate. We have engineered an inducible transgenic line Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) harboring hoxa9/meis1 under the draculin (drl) promoter. The downregulation of runx1, c-myb, mpx, mfap4, and gata1 in Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) embryos indicated enforced hoxa9/meis1 perturbs embryonic hematopoiesis. Importantly, adult Tg (drl:hoxa9;hsp70:meis1) develops malignant myeloid disease with an abundance of myeloid precursor cells, anemia, and high mortality after a latency period (~5-months-aged) with comparable to murine model and human AML patients. Genome-wide transcription changes analysis indicated arrested differentiation genes such as gata2b, notch1b, and gfi1ab are upregulated. Leflunomide, inhibitor of enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) which is a potential option for differentiation therapy of AML, relieves defective hematopoiesis in transgenic embryos and larvae. Collectively, we have identified an inducible malignant myeloid disease transgenic zebrafish model similar to AML and provided a unique opportunity for high-throughput in vivo chemical screening for AML therapy and study the related mechanisms.
