Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), a lethal pediatric cancer driven by H3K27M oncohistones, exhibits aberrant epigenetic regulation and stem-like cell states. Here, we uncover an axis involving H3.3K27M oncohistones, CREB5/ID1, which sustains the stem-like state of DIPG cells, promoting malignancy. We demonstrate that CREB5 mediates elevated ID1 levels in the H3.3K27M/ACVR1WT subtype, promoting tumor growth; while BMP signaling regulates this process in the H3.1K27M/ACVR1MUT subtype. Furthermore, we reveal that H3.3K27M directly enhances CREB5 expression by reshaping the H3K27me3 landscape at the CREB5 locus, particularly at super-enhancer regions. Additionally, we elucidate the collaboration between CREB5 and BRG1, the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex catalytic subunit, in driving oncogenic transcriptional changes in H3.3K27M DIPG. Intriguingly, disrupting CREB5 super-enhancers with ABBV-075 significantly reduces its expression and inhibits H3.3K27M DIPG tumor growth. Combined treatment with ABBV-075 and a BRG1 inhibitor presents a promising therapeutic strategy for clinical translation in H3.3K27M DIPG treatment.

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a uniformly lethal brainstem tumor of childhood, driven by mutations in histone H3 at lysine 27 (K27M) leading to altered epigenetic regulation. Epigenomic analyses of DIPG have shown global loss of repressive chromatin marks accompanied by DNA hypomethylation. However, studies providing a static view of the epigenome do not adequately capture the regulatory underpinnings of DIPG intratumoral heterogeneity and phenotypic plasticity. To address this, we performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) on 23 primary patient DIPG specimens, 4 patient-derived DIPG neurosphere cell lines, and 5 normal controls and applied a novel framework for analysis of DNA methylation variability, permitting the derivation of comprehensive genome-wide DNA methylation potential energy landscapes that capture intrinsic epigenetic variation. We show that DIPG exhibits a markedly disordered epigenome, with increasingly stochastic DNA methylation localizing to key regulatory elements and genes. We demonstrate marked epigenetic instability at genes regulating pluripotency and developmental identity, potentially enabling cells to sample a diverse range of transcriptional programs and differentiation states. We then evaluated the responsiveness of the DIPG epigenetic landscape to pharmacologic modulation. Treatment with the DNA hypomethylating agent decitabine produced profound genome-wide demethylation and reduced DNA methylation stochasticity at active enhancers, bivalent promoters, and promoters of key developmental genes. Decitabine treatment elicited changes in gene expression, including upregulation of immune signaling, and sensitized DIPG cells to the effects of histone deacetylase inhibition. This study provides a resource for dissecting the epigenetic instability that underlies DIPG heterogeneity and plasticity, suggesting the application of epigenetic therapies to constrain the range of epigenetic states available to DIPG cells.

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a universally fatal malignancy of the childhood central nervous system, with a median overall survival of 9-11 months. We have previously shown that primary DIPG tissue contains numerous tumor-associated macrophages, and substantial work has demonstrated a significant pathological role for adult glioma-associated macrophages. However, work over the past decade has highlighted many molecular and genomic differences between pediatric and adult glioblastomas (GBM). Thus, we directly compared inflammatory characteristics of DIPG and adult GBM. We found that the leukocyte (CD45+) compartment in primary DIPG tissue samples is predominantly composed of CD11b+ macrophages, with very few CD3+ T-lymphocytes. In contrast, T-lymphocytes are more abundant in adult GBM tissue samples. RNA sequencing of macrophages isolated from primary tumor samples revealed that DIPG- and adult GBM-associated macrophages both express gene programs related to ECM remodeling and angiogenesis, but DIPG-associated macrophages express substantially fewer inflammatory factors than their adult GBM counterparts. Examining the secretome of glioma cells, we found that patient-derived DIPG cell cultures secrete markedly fewer cytokines and chemokines than patient-derived adult GBM cultures. Concordantly, bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing data indicates low to absent expression of chemokines and cytokines in DIPG. Together, these observations suggest that the inflammatory milieu of the DIPG tumor microenvironment is fundamentally different than adult GBM. The low intrinsic inflammatory signature of DIPG cells may contribute to the lack of lymphocytes and non-inflammatory phenotype of DIPG-associated microglia/macrophages. Understanding the glioma subtype-specific inflammatory milieu may inform the design and application of immunotherapy-based treatments.

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a fatal pediatric brain tumor with limited therapeutic options. The majority of cases of DIPG exhibit a mutation in histone 3 (H3K27M) that results in oncogenic transcriptional aberrancies. We show here that DIPG is vulnerable to transcriptional disruption using either bromodomain inhibition or CDK7 blockade. We observe that targeting oncogenic transcription through either of these methods synergizes with HDAC inhibition and that DIPG cells resistant to HDAC inhibitor therapy retain sensitivity to CDK7 blockade. Furthermore, identification of super-enhancers in DIPG provides insights toward the cell of origin, highlighting oligodendroglial lineage genes, and reveals unexpected mechanisms mediating tumor viability and invasion, including potassium channel function and EPH-ephrin signaling. The findings presented here demonstrate transcriptional vulnerabilities of DIPG and elucidate previously unknown mechanisms of DIPG pathobiology.

Project description:Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) is a rare and highly aggressive pediatric tumor. The average survival time after diagnosis is less than one year. Currently, there are no effective treatments. Characteristic of DIPG is a mutation in histone H3 which leads to a substitution of Lysine 27 to Methionine (H3K27M) which deregulates Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), including enzymatic activity of EZH2. Previous studies have shown that inhibition of EZH2 by chemical agents decreases DIPG cell proliferation and inhibits tumor growth in vivo. My thesis project aims to confirm that EZH2 could be a therapeutic target using chemical EZH2 inhibitors, small interfering RNAs and a CRISPR/Cas9 approach in a series of DIPG tumor cell lines and to determine underlying molecular mechanisms of action.

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), an exceptionally lethal pediatric cancer with limited treatment options, is characterized by relentless proliferation and differentiation arrest, primarily influenced by H3K27M oncohistones. This study unveils that ID1 activation occurs independently of BMP signaling in H3.3K27M/ACVR1WT DIPG subtype. ID1 inhibition promotes cell differentiation and apoptosis in DIPG. Additionally, we discover the intricate regulation of ID1 tied to the lineage-specific transcription factor CREB5—an oncogenic contributor hindering differentiation in the H3.3K27M subtype of DIPG. The SWI/SNF complex is identified as a co-regulator of CREB5, further promoting tumorigenesis. Intriguingly, H3.3K27M oncohistones act as a trigger for CREB5 overexpression, facilitating the formation of super-enhancer promoter loops. Moreover, our research highlights the potent anti-tumor effect of ABBV-075 in treating DIPG. In essence, this study elucidates the oncohistone-driven H3.3K27M/CREB5/ID1 axis, providing insights into the malignant cellular state within a DIPG subtype and offering potential therapeutic avenues for this devastating pediatric cancer.

Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare pediatric brain tumor with a median survival of 10-15 months. Histone H3 is mutated in 80% of DIPGs, dictating tumor location, onset, and outcome. Therapeutic resistance remains a major obstacle to preventing tumor recurrence and is in part driven by cancer stem cells (CSCs), which exhibit self-renewal properties and tumorigenic potential. In previous studies, we have identified these proliferative and tumorigenic features in aldehyde dehydrogenase positive (ALDH+) CSCs in H3K27M mutant DIPG. We hypothesize that ALDH-mediated cancer stemness and resistance may in part be driven by H3K27M. Histone H3 K27 acetylation was assayed by chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq).
