A systems biology approach in understanding oncogenic cooperation between TAL1 expression and PTEN deletion in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

ABSTRACT: T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is caused by the accumulation of multiple mutations combined with the ectopic expression of transcription factors. However, how these transcription factors cooperate with oncogenic mutations has been difficult to assess due to a lack of robust T cell model systems. Here we utilize a new ex vivo pro-T cell model to study oncogenic cooperation. Using a systems biological approach we dissect the pro-T cell signaling network driven by interleukin-7, stem cell factor (Scf) and Notch1 and identify downstream Akt, Stat, E2f and Myc genetic signaling networks. Furthermore, we demonstrate that ectopic expression of the TAL1 transcription factor and PTEN deletion are bona-fide cooperating events leading to Scf addiction and metabolic reprogramming, partially through upregulation of the lactate transporter Mct4. This ex vivo pro-T cell system is a powerful new model system to understand transforming events and the identification of new therapeutic targets in T-cell malignancies.

Proton shifting induces cell growth and is exploited in leukemia by epigenetic enforcement of H+/lactate-cotransporter expression

Project description:Ion balance is critical for membrane polarity, signaling and bioenergesis in cells. Here, we report that proton distribution resets metabolism and alters growth in hematopoietic cells. Multiple oncogenic mutations in acute myeloid leukemia utilize proton partitioning to enhance growth by epigenetically upregulating H+/lactate-co-transporter, MCT4, shuttling protons extracellularly to increase intracellular pH. Secondarily, activity of metabolic enzymes (hexokinase, pyruvate kinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) is increased, raising carbon flux through glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway necessary for proliferation. MCT4-overexpression in normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells increases growth without malignant transformation. Yet, inhibiting MCT4 in AML decreases pHi and carbon flux that improves animal survival and, unexpectedly, elimination of leukemic initiating cells in vivo. AML with increased MCT4 expression have activating histone mark, H3K27ac, in MCT4 promoter where MLL-AF9 and BRD4 directly bind. These data demonstrate the sequential alteration of metabolism through epigenetic activation of proton regulator and point to cytoplasmic alkalization as a growth promoting strategy exploited by malignant cells. Inhibiting this process may diminish the competitive advantage of leukemia and potentially improve AML treatment.

HeberleRazquinNavas2019 - The PI3K and MAPK/p38 pathways control stress granuleassembly in a hierarchical manner model 3

Project description:All cells and organisms exhibit stress-coping mechanisms toensure survival. Cytoplasmic protein-RNA assemblies termedstress granules are increasingly recognized to promote cellularsurvival under stress. Thus, they might represent tumor vul-nerabilities that are currently poorly explored. The translation-inhibitory eIF2αkinases are established as main drivers ofstress granule assembly. Using a systems approach, we identifythe translation enhancers PI3K and MAPK/p38 as pro-stress-granule-kinases. They act through the metabolic master regu-lator mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) topromote stress granule assembly. When highly active, PI3K is themain driver of stress granules; however, the impact of p38becomes apparent as PI3K activity declines. PI3K and p38 thusact in a hierarchical manner to drive mTORC1 activity and stressgranule assembly. Of note, this signaling hierarchy is also presentin human breast cancer tissue. Importantly, only the recognition ofthe PI3K-p38 hierarchy under stress enabled the discovery of p38’srole in stress granule formation. In summary, we assign a new pro-survival function to the key oncogenic kinases PI3K and p38, as theyhierarchically promote stress granule formation

Predictive Value of Progastrin Titer at Diagnosis and of Progastrin Kinetics During Treatment in Cancer Patients

Project description:Progastrin is a pro-hormone that, in physiological conditions, is maturated in gastrin in G cells of the stomach. The role of the gastrin is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acids during digestion. It is also important for the regulation of cell growth of the gastric mucosal. In a healthy person, progastrin is not detectable in the peripheral blood. However, progastrin is abnormally released in the blood of patients with different cancers (colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, cervix uterus, melanoma...) The gene GAST coding for progastrin is a direct target gene of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway. The activation of this oncogenic pathway is an early event in cancer development. Chronic activation of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway occurs in almost all human solid tumors and is a central mechanism in cancer biology that induces cellular proliferation, blocking of differentiation leading to primary tumor growth and metastasis formation. Progastrin measured in the peripheral blood of patients on treatments, could be a new powerful marker for diagnosis and prognosis at different stages.

Gene expression analysis of CCL28 signaling in ishematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) in culture

Project description:We identified chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 28 (CCL28) as a novel growth factor for HSPCs with the ability to enhance the proliferation potential of fetal, neonatal and adult CD34+ HSPCs after one week of culture in serum-free medium containing limiting stem cell factor (SCF) concentrations. Importantly, CCL28 could increase the progenitor potential of CB- and bone marrow (BM) derived CD34+ cells as measured by colony assays. Furthermore, treatment of CB CD34hiCD38loCD90+CD45RA- cells with CCL28 significantly enhanced the ability of the cells to long-term repopulate immunodeficient mice compared to SCF-treated cultures. Our findings show that CCL28 is a potent growth factor for human HSCs and suggest that it should be further exploited in clinical strategies for ex vivo expansion. Human CD34+CD38-CD45RAlowCD90+ cord blood cells were cultured in vitro for 18 hrs with CCL28 and SCF or SCF alone.

TLX3 ex vivo model identifies TLE4 as a co-repressor in T-ALL

Project description:T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematological disease originating from the malignant transformation of T-cell progenitors caused by the accumulation of genetic aberrations. One fifth of T-ALL patients are characterized by the ectopic expression of the homeobox transcription factor TLX3, which is normally not expressed in hematopoietic cells. Strikingly, this TLX3 positive subgroup of T-ALL has a high frequency of FLT3 mutations. Co-expression of TLX3 and FLT3-ITD in ex vivo pro-T cells conferred IL7 independent growth, confirming that TLX3 expression and FLT3 signaling cooperate to transform T-cells and make them less dependent on extracellular signals. After inducing TLX3 expression for 24 hours in Pro-T cells, transducin-like enhancer of split 4 (Tle4) was detected to be downregulated. Interestingly, T-ALL patients also present a strongly decreased expression of TLE4 specific to TLX3 and TLX1 subtypes. Family members of the transcriptional corepressor TLE4 have been described to interact and thus, inhibit transcription factors, through their interaction with an Engrailed-homology 1 (Eh1) domain. Generation of a point mutation in the Eh1 domain present at the N-terminus of TLX3 allowed us to show that TLE4 has a repressive effect on TLX3 activity. Together, we propose a TLX3+FLT3-ITD Pro-T cell model and use this to illustrate that low expression levels of TLE4 are favourable for the oncogenic function of TLX3.

Stem cell factor programs the mast cell activation phenotype

Project description:Mast cells, activated by antigen via the high affinity receptor for IgE (FcεRI), release an array of pro-inflammatory mediators that contribute to allergic disorders such as asthma and anaphylaxis. The KIT ligand, stem cell factor (SCF), is critical for mast cell expansion, differentiation and survival, and, under acute conditions, enhances mast cell activation. However, extended SCF exposure in vivo conversely protects against fatal antigen-mediated anaphylaxis. In investigating this dichotomy, we identified a novel mode of regulation of the mast cell activation phenotype through SCF-mediated programming. We found that mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells chronically exposed to SCF displayed a marked attenuation of FcεRI-mediated degranulation and cytokine production. The hypo-responsive phenotype was not a consequence of altered signals regulating calcium flux or protein kinase C, but of ineffective cytoskeletal reorganization, with evidence implicating a down-regulation of expression of the Src kinase Hck. Collectively, these findings demonstrate a major role for SCF in the homeostatic control of mast cell activation with potential relevance to mast cell-driven disease and the development of novel approaches for the treatment of allergic disorders. Mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells were treated with IL3, IL3+IL33, or IL3+SCF. Six replicates each.

pp71-stimulated genes in U87 stable cells

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly malignant primary central nervous neoplasm characterized by tumor cell invasion, robust angiogenesis, and a mean survival of 15 months. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is present in > 90% of GBMs, although the role the virus plays in GBM pathogenesis is unclear. We report here that a majority of human GBM tumors express HCMV pp71, which has previously been found to promote cell cycle progression and viral replication, and that pp71 is expressed preferentially within the CD133+ cancer stem cell-like subpopulation. Overexpression of pp71 in adult neural precursor cells (NPCs) resulted in a dramatic induction of stem cell factor (SCF) gene expression, which has been identified as an important pro-angiogenic factor in GBM. We further demonstrate that pp71 induces a pro-inflammatory response via NFΚB activation, which drives SCF upregulation. In summary, we show for the first time that HCMV pp71 is expressed in a majority of human GBMs and that pp71 activates NFΚB signaling, resulting in increased expression and secretion of SCF, an important paracrine modulator of GBM angiogenesis.
