Project description:Tumor cell survival critically depends on heterotypic communication with benign cells in the microenvironment. Here we describe a novel survival signaling pathway activated in stromal cells by contact to B-cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. The expression of PKC-M-NM-2II and the subsequent activation of NF-M-NM-:B in bone marrow stromal cells is a prerequisite to support the survival of malignant B-cells. PKC-M-NM-2 knockout mice are insusceptible to CLL-transplantations, underscoring the in vivo significance of the PKC-M-NM-2II- NF-M-NM-:B signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment. Upregulated stromal PKC-M-NM-2II in biopsies from CLL, breast- and pancreatic- cancer patients suggest that this pathway may commonly be activated in a variety of malignancies. We used microarrays to determine Nemo/ IKK-gamma dependent gene expression changes in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) induced by co-culturing with leukemic B-cells (CLL) We compared mouse BMSC cells from Nemo knockout cells (Nemo+CRE) and Nemo wild type cells (Nemo-CRE) co-cultured for 5 days with leukemic B-cells microarray analysis on Affymetrix MG-430_2.0 arrays..

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemic B cells (CLL) reside in close contact with activated endothelial cells (EC) in infiltrated tissues. Here, we investigated the interactions between EC and CLL cells, highlighting molecular networks involved in this cellular crosstalk. We co-cultured purified CLL cells on HUVEC monolayer (HC) or in medium alone. We found that EC protected CLL from spontaneous apoptosis. A 2.2-fold increase in relative viability in IGHV mutated CLL and a 6.1-fold increase in IGHV unmutated CLL was detected in co-culture. Moreover, the endothelial cell layer decreased the in vitro sensitivity of CLL cells to Fludarabine-induced apoptosis. Physical contact with EC is essential for protection to apoptosis. The insertion of a microporous membrane or blocking adhesion with anti-CD106 and anti-CD18 antibodies determined the complete abrogation of apoptosis protection. On the other hand, a reduction of apoptosis was measured in CLL cells cultured with conditioned medium collected from HC, implying that survival is partially mediated by soluble factors. Overall 1944 genes were modulated in CLL by co-culture. The EC contact seem to determine on CLL a kind of microenvironmental-driven angiogenic switch, improve the secretion of cytokines regulating tissue elements such as stromal cells and macrophages and also increase anti-apoptotic molecules. Our study support the line of evidence indicating endothelial cells as a major player in the CLL-infiltrated microenvironments are able to create a vicious cycle of cooperation that strongly sustains leukemic cell survival, protects CLL from drug-induced apoptosis and widely modifies CLL phenotype. Large-scale gene expression profiling (GEP) was performed on total RNA extracted from purified CD19+ cells isolated from 9 individual CLL patients which were separated in 3 experimental subsets: (i) freshly isolated cells (CLL baseline), (ii) CLL cells cultured in medium alone for 48 hours (CLL only) and (iii) CLL cells co-cultured 48h on HUVEC layer (CLL HC).

Project description:Tumor cell survival critically depends on heterotypic communication with benign cells in the microenvironment. Here we describe a novel survival signaling pathway activated in stromal cells by contact to B-cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. The expression of PKC-βII and the subsequent activation of NF-κB in bone marrow stromal cells is a prerequisite to support the survival of malignant B-cells. PKC-β knockout mice are insusceptible to CLL-transplantations, underscoring the in vivo significance of the PKC-βII- NF-κB signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous malignancy, characterized by a variable clinical course. While clinical and laboratory parameters are increasingly being used to refine prognosis, they do not accurately predict response to commonly used therapy. We used gene expression profiling to generate and further refine prognostic and predictive markers. Genomic signatures that reflect progressive disease and responses to chemotherapy or chemo-immunotherapy were created using cancer cell lines and patient leukemia samples. We validated these signatures using independent clinical data from four separate cohorts representing a total of 301 CLL patients. A prognostic genomic signature created from patient leukemic cell gene expression data coupled with clinical parameters could statistically differentiate patients with stable or progressive disease in the training dataset. The progression signature was then validated in two independent datasets, demonstrating a capacity to accurately identify patients at risk for progressive disease. In addition, two distinct genomic signatures that predict response to chlorambucil or pentostatin, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab were also generated and were shown to accurately distinguish responding and non-responding CLL patients. Microarray analysis of CLL patientsâ lymphocytes can be used to refine prognosis and predict response to different therapies. These results have direct implications for standard and investigational therapeutics in CLL patients. Experiment Overall Design: For the predictive genomic signature or response to pentostatin, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab, 20 CLL leukemia samples were used in the training set, and 20 CLL leukemia samples were used in the validation set

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the most frequent adult leukemia in western countries, is a clonal accumulation of mature B-lymphocytes and its natural history is yet unclear. By using sequencing and cellular biology approaches on a cohort of CLL patient samples, we show here that acquired CLL mutations are observed in hematopoietic multipotent progenitor fractions in the majority of patients. These early CLL mutations include recurrent inactivating mutations in NFKBIE (10.7%) and missense mutations in BRAF (3.6%) and EGR2 (8.3%). Functional analyses demonstrated that BRAF-G469R affects lymphoid differentiation and transforms the T-cell lineage in vivo. In addition, the EGR2 recurrent mutations were associated with transcriptional activation of EGR2 target genes in patients and cell cycle abnormality in cellular model. Our findings indicate that CLL may develop from an initial infra-clinic, pre-leukemic phase affecting immature hematopoietic cells. We perform RNA-seq experiments on three EGR2-E356K samples, one EGR2-H384N sample and seven EGR2 wildtype patients. The RNA was extracted from B cells. The cDNA libraries were prepared using the ScriptSeq Complete Kit (Epicentre) and we performed paired-end sequencing (100 bp) using HiSeq2000 sequencing instruments.

Project description:Bi-directional communication with the microenvironment is essential for homing and survival of cancer cells with implications for disease biology and behaviour. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) the role of the microenvironment on malignant cell behaviour is well described. However, how CLL cells engage and recruit nurturing cells is poorly characterised. Here we demonstrate that CLL cells secrete exosomes that are nanovesicles originating from the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane, to shuttle proteins, lipids, microRNAs (miR) and mRNAs to recipient cells. We characterise and confirm the size (50 - 100 nm) and identity of the CLL-derived exosomes by Electron microscopy (EM), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), flow cytometry and western blotting using both exosomes-specific and CLL-specific markers. Incubation of CLL-exosomes, derived either from cell culture supernatants or from patient plasma, with human stromal cells shows that they are readily taken up into endosomes, and induce expression of genes such as c-fos and ATM as well as enhance proliferation of recipient HS-5 cells. Furthermore, we show that CLL exosomes encapsulate abundant small RNAs and are enriched in certain miRs and specifically hsa-miR-202-3p. We suggest that such specific packaging of miR-202-3p impacts on the expression of 'suppressor of fused' (Sufu), a Hedgehog (Hh) signalling intermediate, in the parental CLL cells. Thus, our data show that CLL cells secrete exosomes that alter the transcriptome and behaviour of recipient cells. Such communication with microenvironment is likely to have an important role in CLL disease biology. miR analysis was carried out on 3 exosomal samples and 3 corresponding cellular samples from CLL patients. Exosomes are a discrete population of small (50-100 nm diameter) EVs of endosomal origin with a lipid membrane bilayer and a cup-shaped morphology. We used common reference design which allows visualization of variations between the samples. Each sample equals one array and each sample compared with common reference (Pool). The pool or common reference was a collection of 23 RNA samples isolated from 23 CLL cases. We hypothesised that CLL derived exosomes should contain unique miRs that are reflective of CLL cell content and additionally relevant for disease biology.

Project description:Genomic aberrations are of predominant importance to the biology and clinical outcome of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and FISH-based genomic risk classifications are routinely used in clinical decision making in CLL. One of the known limitations of CLL FISH is the inability to comprehensively interrogate the CLL genome for genomic changes. In an effort at overcoming the existing limitations in CLL genome analysis, we have analyzed high-purity DNA isolated from FACS-sorted CD19+ cells and paired CD3+ or buccal cells from 255 CLL patients for acquired genomic copy number aberrations (aCNA) using ultra-high-density Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays. Overall, two or more subchromosomal aCNA were found in 39% (100/255) of all cases analyzed, while ≥3 subchromosomal aCNA were detected in 20% (50/255) of cases. Subsequently, we have correlated genomic lesion loads (genomic complexity) with the clinical outcome measures time to first therapy (TTFT) and overall survival (OS). Using multivariate analyses incorporating the most important prognostic factors in CLL together with SNP 6.0 array-based genomic lesion loads at various thresholds, we identify elevated CLL genomic complexity as an independent and powerful marker for the identification of CLL patients with aggressive disease and short survival. we have analyzed high-purity DNA isolated from FACS-sorted CD19+ cells and paired CD3+ or buccal cells from 255 CLL patients for acquired genomic copy number aberrations (aCNA) using ultra-high-density Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays

Project description:LYN kinase is a tyrosine kinase, that regulates cellular homeostasis in a context-specific manner. Our group could show, that its expression in the leukemic microenvironment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia contributes to disease progression (Nguyen PH et al.; Cancer Cell; 2016). To analyze the effect of LYN kinase on the leukemia supportive phenotype of the bone marrow stromal cell line HS-5, we generated single cell clones of LYN deficient stroma cells. These cells were analyzed in a Multi-Omic approach, including ARNA-Seq of stromal cells after 72h of coculture with primary human chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) samples.
