Project description:Inversion of chromosome 16 is a consistent finding in patients with acute myeloid leukemia subtype M4 with eosinophilia (AML M4Eo), which generates a CBFB-MYH11 fusion gene. It is generally considered that CBFβ-SMMHC, the fusion protein encoded by CBFB-MYH11, is a dominant negative repressor of RUNX1. However, recent findings challenge the RUNX1-repression model for CBFβ-SMMHC mediated leukemogenesis. To definitively address the role of Runx1 in CBFB-MYH11 induced leukemia, we crossed conditional Runx1 knockout mice (Runx1f/f) with conditional Cbfb-MYH11 knockin mice (Cbfb+/56M). Upon Mx1-Cre activation in hematopoietic cells induced by poly (I:C) injection, all Mx1-CreCbfb+/56M mice developed leukemia in 5 months while no leukemia developed in Runx1f/fMx1-CreCbfb+/56M mice, and this effect was cell autonomous. Importantly, the abnormal myeloid progenitors (AMPs), a leukemia initiating cell population induced by Cbfb-MYH11 in the bone marrow, decreased and disappeared in Runx1f/fMx1-CreCbfb+/56M mice. RNA-seq analysis of AMP cells showed that genes associated with proliferation, differentiation blockage and leukemia initiation, were differentially expressed between Mx1-CreCbfb+/56M and Runx1f/fMx1-CreCbfb+/56M mice. In addition, with chromatin immunocleavage sequencing (ChIC-seq) assay, we observed a significant enrichment of RUNX1/CBFβ-SMMHC target genes in Runx1f/fMx1-CreCbfb+/56M cells, especially among down-regulated genes, suggesting that RUNX1 and CBFβ-SMMHC mainly function together as activators of gene expression through direct target gene binding. These data indicate that Runx1 is indispensable for Cbfb-MYH11 induced leukemogenesis by working together with CBFβ-SMMHC to regulate critical genes associated with the generation of a functional AMP population.

Project description:The leukemia fusion gene CBFB-MYH11 requires RUNX1 for leukemogenesis, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. By in vitro studies, we found that CBFβ-SMMHC, the chimeric protein encoded by CBFB-MYH11, could enhance the binding affinity between RUNX1 and its target DNA. Increased RUNX1-DNA binding was also observed in myeloid progenitor cells from mice expressing CBFβ-SMMHC. Moreover, only CBFβ-SMMHC variants able to enhance the DNA binding affinity by RUNX1 could induce leukemia in mouse models. Significant transcriptomic changes, affecting genes associated with inflammatory response and target genes of CBFA2T3, were observed in mice expressing leukemogenic CBFβ-SMMHC variants. Finally, we show that CBFβ-SMMHC could not induce leukemia in mice with a Runx1-R188Q mutation, which reduces RUNX1 DNA binding but not affecting its interaction with CBFβ-SMMHC or its sequestration to cytoplasm by CBFβ-SMMHC. Our data suggest that enhancing RUNX1-target DNA binding affinity is an important mechanism of leukemogenesis by CBFβ-SMMHC.

Project description:The recurrent chromosome 16 inversion in acute myeloid leukemia generates a fusion gene between CBFB and MYH11, which in turn encodes a chimeric protein CBFβ-SMMHC (core binding factor β-smooth muscle myosin heavy chain). We previously demonstrated that CBFβ-SMMHC needs its C terminal domains for leukemogenesis. In this study, we generated a new Cbfb-MYH11 knock-in mouse model to dissect the role of the multimerization domain at the C terminus of CBFβ-SMMHC. Specifically, we mutated six amino acids in the helices D and E (mDE) of the assembly competent domain, which is important for SMMHC multimerization. We found that the embryos with the mDE mutation (Cbfb+/mDE) did not develop hematopoietic defects seen in embryos with full-length CBFβ-SMMHC (Cbfb+/MYH11). More importantly leukemia development was abolished in the adult Cbfb+/mDE mice even after mutagenesis treatment. In addition, gene expression profile of the hematopoietic cells from the Cbfb+/mDE mice was more similar to that of Cbfb+/+ mice than the Cbfb+/MYH11 mice. Our data suggest that the C terminal multimerization domain is required for the defects in primitive and definitive hematopoiesis caused by CBFβ-SMMHC, and it is also essential for leukemogenesis caused by CBFβ-SMMHC.

Project description:Polycomb activity is frequently altered in acute leukaemia through mutation or deletion of Polycomb Repressive Complex (PRC) components. Alterations in PRC-interacting factors such as the Core Binding Factor (CBF) complex should also affect leukemia biology, even if PRC composition is normal. We report that the acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-associated CBFβ-SMMHC fusion oncoprotein physically interacts with the PRC1 complex, and that these factors co-localize across the AML genome in a PRC2-independent manner. Depletion of CBFβ-SMMHC caused increases in genome-wide PRC1 binding and an altered association between PRC1 and RUNX1. Overall, PRC1 was more likely to be associated with active genes. CBFβ-SMMHC depletion had variable transcriptional effects, including significant reductions in expression of PRC1-bound ribosomal loci. Our results expand on the recently reported localized effect of CBFβ-SMMHC on RUNX1-mediated recruitment of PRC1 at MYC enhancer elements, providing evidence that the oncoprotein diversely affects Polycomb recruitment and transcriptional regulation across the entire AML genome.

Project description:The C-terminus of CBFß-SMMHC, the fusion protein produced by a chromosome 16 inversion in acute myeloid leukemia subtype M4Eo, contains domains for self-mulimerization and transcriptional repression, both of which have been proposed to be important for leukemogenesis by CBFß-SMMHC. To test the role of the fusion protein's C-terminus in vivo, we generated knock-in mice expressing a C-terminally truncated CBFß-SMMHC (CBFß-SMMHCΔC95). Embryos with a single copy of CBFß-SMMHCDC95 were viable and showed no defects in hematopoiesis, while embryos homozygous for the CBFß-SMMHCΔC95 allele had hematopoietic defects and died in mid-gestation, similar to embryos with a single-copy of the full-length CBFß-SMMHCΔC95. To identify gene expression changes induced by CBFß-SMMHCDC95, we compared the gene expression profile in the blood cells of Cbfb+/+, Cbfb+/ΔC95, and CbfbΔC95/ΔC95 embryonic day 12.5 (E12.5) mice. Cbfb+/ΔC95 were mated together to generate Cbfb+/+, Cbfb+/ΔC95, and CbfbΔC95/ΔC95 embryos. Blood from 8-10 E12.5 embryos of the same genotype was pooled, and RNA was isolated, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Genechip mouse microarray (430 2.0) chips. 3 chips were used for each genotype.

Importantly, unlike mice expressing full-length CBFβ-SMMHC, none of the mice expressing CBFβ-SMMHCΔC95 developed leukemia, even after treatment with a mutagen, although some of the older mice developed a nontransplantable myeloproliferative disease. Our data indicate that the CBFβ-SMMHC's C-terminus is essential to induce embryonic hematopoietic defects and leukemogenesis.

Project description:Dominant RUNX1 inhibition has been proposed as a common pathway for CBF-leukemia. CBFb-SMMHC, a fusion protein in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML), dominantly inhibits RUNX1 largely through its RUNX1 high-affinity binding domain (HABD). We generated knock-in mice expressing CBFb-SMMHC with a HABD deletion, CBFb-SMMHCd179-221. These mice developed leukemia highly efficiently, even though hematopoietic defects associated with Runx1-inhibition were partially rescued. To identify changes in gene expression with the deletion of the HABD, we compared the gene expression profile in leukemia samples from mice expressing CBFb-SMMHCd179-221 with those from mice expressing full length CBFb-SMMHC. Spleen cells were isolated from leukemic knock-in mice with full length CBFb-SMMHC at 2 months after ENU treatment and 2 leukemic CBFb-SMMHCd179-221 expressing chimeric mice at 3 weeks after birth. For each genotype, we performed two independent experiments with 4 Affymetrix GeneChip 430 chips.
