Insulator dysfunction and oncogene activation in IDH mutant gliomas

ABSTRACT: Gain-of-function IDH mutations define major clinical and prognostic classes of gliomas. Mutant IDH protein produces a novel onco-metabolite, 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), that interferes with iron-dependent hydroxylase enzymes, including the TET family of 5'-methylcytosine hydroxylases. TET enzymes are critical for the dynamic regulation of DNA methylation. IDH mutant gliomas thus manifest a CpG island methylator phenotype (G-CIMP), though the functional significance of this altered epigenetic state remains unclear. Here we show that IDH1 mutant gliomas exhibit hyper-methylation at CTCF binding sites, leading to reduced binding of this methylation-sensitive insulator protein. Loss of CTCF binding is associated with a loss of insulation between topological domains and aberrant gene activation. We specifically demonstrate that loss of CTCF at a domain boundary permits a constitutive enhancer to aberrantly interact with the receptor tyrosine kinase gene PDGFRA, a prominent glioma oncogene. Treatment of IDH mutant gliomaspheres with demethylating agent partially restores insulator function and reduces PDGFRA expression. Conversely, CRISPR-mediated disruption of the CTCF binding sequence in IDH wildtype gliomaspheres induces PDGFRA expression and increases proliferation. Our study suggests that IDH mutations promote gliomagenesis by disrupting chromosomal topology and allowing aberrant regulatory interactions that induce oncogene expression. CTCF occupancy characterization and histone H3K27 acetylation profiling in IDH1 mutant and wild-type glioma patient specimens and culture models. ChIP-seq raw data is to be made available through dbGaP (controlled access) due to patient privacy concerns.

Modeling epigenetic lesions that cause gliomas [Capture-Bis-seq]

Project description:Epigenetic lesions that disrupt gene regulatory elements and expression are increasingly recognized as pervasive drivers of human cancers. However, we currently lack the in vitro and in vivo models required to functionally validate such lesions and their tumorigenic impact. Here we model aberrations that arise in Isocitrate Dehydrogenase mutant (IDHmut) lower-grade gliomas, which exhibit profound DNA hypermethylation. We initially focus on a CTCF insulator downstream of the PDGFRA oncogene that is recurrently disrupted in IDHmut gliomas. We demonstrate that disruption of the syntenic insulator in mouse oligodendrocyte-progenitor cells (OPCs) allows an OPC-specific enhancer to contact and induce PDGFRA, thereby increasing proliferation. In contrast, insulator disruption did not affect PDGFRA expression in neural progenitor cells (NPCs), which lack the enhancer. We also model a second recurrent epigenetic lesion in IDHmut gliomas, the methylation-dependent silencing of the CDKN2A tumor suppressor. We show that inactivation of CDKN2A/p19ARF by de novo promoter methylation or mutation drives OPC proliferation and synergizes with PDGFRA insulator loss. Finally, we use lentiviruses to coordinately inactivate the PDGFRA insulator and CDKN2A in mouse corpus callosum, resulting in low-grade gliomagenesis in vivo. Our study recapitulates recurrent epigenetic lesions in mouse models and demonstrates that combination of PDGFRA activation and CDKN2A silencing can transform OPCs in vitro and drive gliomagenesis in vivo.

Proteome glioma cell lines LC-MS/MS

Project description:Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 or 2 (IDH1/2) define glioma subtypes and are 38 considered primary events in gliomagenesis, impacting tumor epigenetics and metabolism. 39 IDH enzymes are crucial for the generation of reducing potential, yet the impact of the mutation 40 on the cellular antioxidant system is not understood. Here, we investigate how glutathione 41 (GSH) levels are maintained in IDH1 mutant gliomas, despite an altered NADPH/NADP 42 balance. We find that IDH1 mutant astrocytomas specifically upregulate cystathionine γ-lyase 43 (CSE), the enzyme responsible for cysteine production upstream of GSH biosynthesis. Genetic 44 and chemical interference with CSE in patient-derived glioma cells carrying the endogenous 45 IDH1 mutation, sensitized tumor cells to cysteine depletion, an effect not observed in IDH1 46 wild-type gliomas. This correlated with reduced GSH synthesis as shown by in vitro and in vivo 47 serine tracing and led to delayed tumor growth in mice. Thus we show that IDH1 mutant 48 astrocytic gliomas critically rely on NADPH-independent de novo GSH synthesis to maintain 49 the antioxidant defense, which uncovers a novel metabolic vulnerability in this dismal disease.

Altered topology drives oncogenic programs in SDH-deficient GIST

Project description:Metabolic lesions with pleiotropic effects on epigenetic regulation and other cellular processes are widely implicated in cancer, yet their oncogenic mechanisms remain poorly understood. Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) deficiency causes a subset of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) with DNA hyper-methylation. Here we associate this hyper-methylation with changes in chromosome topology that activate oncogenic programs. To investigate epigenetic alterations in this disease, we systematically mapped DNA methylation, CTCF insulators, enhancers and chromosome topology in KIT-mutant, PDGFRA-mutant and SDH-deficient GISTs. Although these respective subtypes share similar enhancer landscapes, we identified hundreds of putative insulators where DNA methylation replaced CTCF binding in SDH-deficient GISTs. We focused on disrupted insulators that partitions super-enhancers from FGF3, FGF4 and the KIT oncogene. Recurrent loss of this insulator alters locus topology in SDH-deficient GISTs, allowing aberrant physical interaction between enhancers and oncogenes. CRISPR-mediated excision of the corresponding CTCF motif in an SDH-intact model disrupted the boundary and up-regulated FGFs and KIT expression. Our findings reveal how a metabolic lesion destabilizes chromatin structure to facilitate the initiation and selection of epigenetic alterations that drive oncogenic programs in the absence of canonical mutations.

The Inhibition of B7H3 by 2-HG Accumulation Is Associated With Downregulation of VEGFA in IDH Mutated Gliomas

Project description:B7H3 (also known as CD276) is a co-stimulator checkpoint protein of the cell surface B7 superfamily. Recently, the function beyond immune regulation of B7H3 has been widely studied. However, the expression preference and the regulation mechanism underlying B7H3 in different subtypes of gliomas is rarely understood. We show here that B7H3 expression is significantly decreased in IDH-mutated gliomas and in cultured IDH1-R132H glioma cells. Accumulation of 2-HG leads to a remarkable downregulation of B7H3 protein and the activity of IDH1-R132H mutant is responsible for B7H3 reduction in glioma cells. Inhibition of autophagy by inhibitors like leupeptin, chloroquine (CQ), and Bafilomycin A1 (Baf-A1) blocks the degradation of B7H3 in glioma cells. In the meantime, the autophagy flux is more active with higher LC3B-II and lower p62 in IDH1-R132H glioma cells than in IDH1-WT cells. Furthermore, sequence alignment analysis reveals potential LC3-interacting region (LIR) motifs 'F-V-S/N-I/V' in B7H3. Moreover, B7H3 interacts with p62 and CQ treatment significantly enhances this interaction. Additionally, we find that B7H3 is positively correlated with VEGFA and MMP2 by bioinformatics analysis in gliomas. B7H3 and VEGFA are decreased in IDH-mutated gliomas and further reduced in 2-HGhigh gliomas compared to 2-HGlow glioma sections by IHC staining. Our study demonstrates that B7H3 is preferentially overexpressed in IDH wild-type gliomas and could serve as a potential theranostic target for the precise treatment of glioma patients with wild-type IDH.

Large-Scale Atlas of Mutant IDH1-Dependent Chromatin State Reprogramming, Reversibility, and Persistence [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) mutations drive the development of gliomas and other human malignancies. Significant efforts are already underway to attempt to target mutant IDH in clinical trials. However, how mutation of IDH leads to tumorigenesis is poorly understood. Mutant IDH1 promotes epigenetic changes that promote tumorigenesis but the scale of these changes throughout the epigenome and the reversibility of these changes are unknown. Here, using both human astrocyte and glioma tumorsphere systems, we generate a large-scale atlas of mutant IDH1-induced epigenomic reprogramming. We characterize the changes in the histone code landscape, DNA methylome, chromatin state, and transcriptional reprogramming that occur following IDH1 mutation and characterize the kinetics and reversibility of these alterations over time. We discover coordinate changes in the localization and intensity of multiple histone marks and chromatin states throughout the genome. These alterations result in systematic chromatin states changes, which result in widespread gene expression changes involving oncogenic pathways. Specifically, mutant IDH1 drives alterations in differentiation state and establishes a CD24+ population that features enhanced self-renewal and other stem-like properties. Strikingly, prolonged exposure to mutant IDH1 results in irreversible genomic and epigenetic alterations. Together, these observations provide unprecedented molecular portraits of mutant IDH1-dependent epigenomic reprogramming at high resolution. These findings have significant implications for our understanding the mechanisms underlying mutant IDH function and for optimizing therapeutic approaches to targeting IDH mutant tumors.
