Project description:B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B ALL) with mixed-lineage leukemia gene rearrangement (MLL-r) is a poor-prognosis subtype for which additional therapeutic targets are needed. We evaluated the glycomes, transcriptomes and proteomes of the same samples using only about 10^6 cells for each assay. We found that the expression of many genes involved in glycosylation differ between MLL-r cells and normal controls: 61 of the 221 human glycosyltransferases were differentially expressed in MLL-r cells. The leukemia cell glycome and many proteins associated with glycan biosynthesis were also significantly changed compared to normal control precursor B-cells, indicating that the malignant phenotype of these cells could be regulated by such changes.

Project description:Recent improvements in relapse/refractory B-cell progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) outcome can be attributed, in part, to the emergence of CD19-directed immune-based therapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy and bi-specific T cell engager (BiTE) therapy. Longitudinal BCP-ALL studies have highlighted individual cases of progressive surface CD19 antigen reduction associated with disease persistence following CAR-T infusion. CD19 genomic deletions and mRNA alternative splicing have been previously shown to confer CAR-T and BiTE resistance, however gene regulatory programs that modulate BCP-ALL CD19 surface antigen abundance remains poorly understood. To address this, we performed genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening to identify positive and negative regulators of surface CD19 abundance in human BCP-ALL as compared to mature B cell neoplasms, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and B cell lymphoma. Here, we show DNA binding protein, ZNF143, occupies the CD19 promoter and transcriptionally regulates CD19 mRNA expression in human B-cell malignancies. Conversely, we show that RNA-binding protein, NUDT21, limits surface CD19 abundance on BCP-ALL. NUDT21 acts to regulate CD19 3’ UTR length and CD19 mRNA stability. NUDT21 mRNA displays high concordance with CD19 mRNA expression in primary healthy and transformed human B cell progenitors. Using primary BCP-ALL patient single cell data, we show that reduction of CD19 mRNA expression following CAR-T therapy coincides with increased NUDT21 mRNA expression. Importantly, NUDT21 ablation sensitizes BCP-ALL to BiTE and CD19 CAR-T killing ex vivo. These findings reveal previously unknown modulators of CD19 antigen abundance that can be applied to therapeutically enhance or determine resistance to CD19-based therapies in B-cell leukemias.

Project description:Malignant transformation in a multipotential precursor has recently been shown to underlie mixed phenotype acute leukaemias. In contrast, and despite the conclusive demonstration that MLL-AF4 infant ALL arises in utero. In order to address this we purified haematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) populations from four non-lineage switching presentation infant ALL cases and one ALL presentation which went on to lineage switch at relapse. The specific MLL-AF4 fusion event was determined in unsorted samples by LDI-PCR and identified in purified populations by nested PCR. In three cases where non-lineage restricted populations were able to be purified, MLL-AF4 was identified in the CD34+CD38-CD45RA+ population (LK228, LK230, LS01), the CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90- multipotential progenitor population (MPP, LS01) and even a candidate CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+ haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) population (LK228) Interestingly, in a single non-switched MLL-AF9 case analysed for external comparison, the fusion was only identified in CD19+ blast/B cell populations, not in any HSPC population. Unexpectedly, we were also able to identify the presence of the MLL-AF4 fusion in apparently normally differentiated CD34-CD19/3-HLA-DR+CD14/11c+ monocytes/dendritic cells from the peripheral blood/bone marrow of 4/5 cases examined. This finding was further supported by single cell analysis of LS01PALL which identified the fusion in 2/22 CD34-CD19/3-HLA-DR+CD14/11c+ monocytes/dendritic cells analysed. Furthermore, the matched AML sample (LS01RAML) also contained MLL-AF4 positive mature T lymphoid cells. These data imply that MLL-AF4 does not impose a complete block on normal haematopoietic differentiation, and raise the question of what additional factors contribute to leukaemic lineage determination in the setting of the MLL-AF4 translocation. To examine the functional capacity of MLL-AF4 transformed precursor cells we generated a patient-derived xenograft model using NOD-scid/IL2Rγ-/- (NSG) mice. Serial xenotransplantation identified an MLL-AF4 positive clone persisting within the human CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+ compartment across four generations of mice, confirming self-renewal of this population. Together these data identify an early multipotent progenitor or HSC as the putative cell of origin for MLL-AF4 ALL. Furthermore, they demonstrate that MLL-AF4, uniquely amongst MLL fusion genes, imposes a profound lymphoid bias on the developing leukemia but without completely abolishing broader, non-malignant, haematopoietic differentiation.

Project description:Overwhelming evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs have essential roles in tumorigenesis. Nevertheless, their expression and role in pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia has not been extensively explored. Here, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the long non-coding RNA transcriptome in ETV6/RUNX1 positive BCP-ALL, one of the most frequent subtypes of pediatric leukemia. An ETV6/RUNX1 expression signature was established, consisting of 596 lncRNAs (434 up and 162 down) using expression analysis of a series of primary patient samples. Subsequently, RNA sequencing from BCP-ALL cell lines and shRNA-mediated silencing of ETV6/RUNX1, illustrated that lnc-NKX2-3-1, lnc-TIMM21-5, lnc-ASTN1-1 and lnc-RTN4R-1 are bona fide ETV6/RUNX1 targets and could serve as novel biomarkers of this prevalent subtype of human leukemia.
