Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by poor clinical outcomes due to high rates of relapse following induction chemotherapy. While many pathogenic drivers have been described in AML, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms mediating chemotherapy resistance remains poor, and initial management of AML continues to rely on standard induction chemotherapy for many patients. Given the importance of identifying new approaches to improve the efficiency of induction therapy in AML, we sought to identify resistance genes to induction therapy in AML and identified ALOX5 is a novel mediator of resistance to anthracycline based therapy. ALOX5 mRNA is expressed at high levels in AML patient blasts in comparison to normal hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) and ALOX5 mRNA and protein expression is increased in response to induction therapy. Genetic and pharmacologic perturbations of ALOX5 function in vitro and in vivo confirm that ALOX5 positively regulates the leukemogenic potential of AML LSCs, while ALOX5 loss does not significantly affect the function of normal HSPCs. ALOX5 mediates resistance to daunorubicin (DNR) and promotes AML cell survival and maintenance through its leukotriene (LT) synthetic capacity. Specifically, the ALOX5 dependent resistance phenotype depends on its ability to synthesize LTB4 and bind to the LTB receptor (BLTR). Overall, our studies reveal a previously unrecognized role of LT’s in AML pathogenesis and chemoresistance, and provide a potential novel strategy to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of induction chemotherapy in AML.

Project description:We previously demonstrated that Alox5 deficiency impairs the function of LSCs and prevents the initiation of BCR-ABL-induced CML. To identify the pathways in which Alox5 gene regulates function of LSCs, we performed a comparative DNA microarray analysis using total RNA isolated from non-BCR-ABL-expressing Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+, BCR-ABL-expressing wild type LSCs and BCR-ABL-expressing Alox5-/- LSCs. The result was validated by quantitative real-time PCR analysis of non-BCR-ABL-expressing Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+, BCR-ABL-expressing wild type LSCs and BCR-ABL-expressing Alox5-/- LSCs. We have shown that Alox5 is a critical regulator of leukemia stem cells (LSCs) in a BCR-ABL-induced chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) mouse model, and we hypothesize that the Alox5 pathway represents a major molecular network that regulates LSC function. Therefore, we sought to further dissect this pathway by comparing the gene expression profiles of wild type and Alox5-/- LSCs derived from our mouse model for BCR-ABL-induced CML. DNA microarray analysis revealed a small group of candidate genes that exhibited changes in the levels of transcription in the absence of Alox5 expression. In particular, we noted that the expression of the Msr1 gene was up-regulated in Alox5-/- LSCs, suggesting that Msr1 might suppress the proliferation of LSCs. Using our CML mouse model, we show that Msr1 is down-regulated by BCR-ABL and this down-regulation is partially restored by Alox5 deletion, and that Msr1 deletion causes acceleration of CML development. Moreover, Msr1 deletion markedly increases LSC function through its effects on cell cycle progression and apoptosis. We also show that Msr1 affects CML development by regulating the PI3K-AKT pathway and ?-Catenin. Together, these results demonstrate that Msr1 suppresses LSCs and CML development. The enhancement of Msr1 function may be of significance in the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting CML. To identify genes that are regulated by BCR-ABL in LSCs and LSCs without Alox5 gene, we compared the gene profile between wild type(WT) LSCs or Alox5-/- LSCs.

The enhancement of Msr1 function may be of significance in the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting CML.

Project description:Intra-tumoral heterogeneity can impact the competitive fitness and chemoresistance of individual cancer cells. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), both genetic and functional heterogeneity contribute to chemoresistance, resulting in relapse after chemotherapy. While the role of cell-extrinsic factors such as interactions with non-leukemic cells has been described for AML relapse, whether interactions between cancer cells affects chemoresistance is not fully known. Here, we demonstrate that a dominant leukemic fraction can suppress the proliferation and expansion of other leukemic cells and that this suppression is reversible. We show that this suppression is mediated in part by both type I and type II intra-leukemic interferon (IFN) signaling and dependent on BST2. Importantly, blocking antibodies to type II IFN receptor activated the cycling of this suppressed cell fraction and sensitized the cells to subsequent chemotherapy treatment. Our findings suggest that interactions between functionally heterogeneous leukemic fractions can affect competitive fitness and treatment response, highlighting IFN signaling as a potential therapeutic target to counter chemoresistance.

Project description:BCL6 is a transcription repressor that plays a crucial role in germinal center formation and lymphomagenesis. However, its role in myeloid malignancies remains unclear. Here, we explored the role of BCL6 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Heterogeneous levels of BCL6 were found across AML cell lines and primary AML samples. Cells with higher levels of BCL6 were indeed sensitive to treatment with BCL6 inhibitors. Gene expression profiling of AML cells treated with BCL6 inhibitor revealed a subset of target genes that are common with lymphoma cells. Ex vivo treatment of primary AML cells with BCL6 peptide inhibitor (BPI) induced apoptosis and decrease colony forming capacity which correlated with the levels of BCL6 expression . Importantly, inhibition of BCL6 in primary AML cells with either BPI or BCL6 siRNA resulted in significant reduction of leukemia initiating capacity using immunodeficient mice, suggesting ablation of leukemia stem cells (LSC). Such anti-LSC activity was also observed as downregulation of LSC gene signatures using gene expression analyses of cells treated with a BCL6 inhibitor. Importantly, treatment with cytarabine (AraC) induced BCL6 expression, and the levels of BCL6 induction were correlated with resistance to AraC. Treatment of AML primary derived xenografts (PDX) revealed that when AraC was combined with BCL6 inhibitor, inhibition of BCL6 significantly potentiated the efficacy of AraC and improved cytotoxic effects by interfering with the leukemia initiating capacity of AML cells. This suggests that pharmacological inhibition of BCL6 might provide a novel therapeutic strategy for ablation of LSCs and overcome chemoresistance in AML.
