Acute loss of TET function results in aggressive myeloid cancer in mice [WGBS]

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the DNA methylation in LSK cells from the bone marrow of wildtype or Tet2/3 DKO mice. In order to address the impact of the loss of Tet2/3 proteins in DNA methylation in LSK cells, we compared by WGBS the methylome of wild and, Tet2/3 DKO LSK cells in bone marrow.

Project description:C/EBPalpha is a transcription factor critically involved in myeloid development and indispensable for formation of granulocytes. To track the cellular fate of stem and progenitor (LSK) cells, which express C/EBPalpha, we developed a mouse model expressing Cre recombinase from the Cebpa promoter and an inducible EYFP allele. We show that Cebpa/EYFP+ cells represent a significant subset of LSK cells, which predominantly give rise to myeloid cells in steady state hematopoiesis. C/EBPalpha induced a robust myeloid gene expression signature and downregulated E2A-induced regulators of early lymphoid development. In addition, Cebpa/EYFP+ cells comprise a fraction of early thymic progenitors (ETP) with robust myeloid potential. However, Cebpa/EYFP+ LSK and ETP cells retained the ability to develop into erythroid and T-lymphoid lineages, respectively. These findings support an instructive, but argue against a lineage restrictive role of C/EBPalpha in multipotent hematopoietic and thymic progenitors. We performed global gene expression profiling of double-sorted Cebpa/EYFP+ and Cebpa/EYFP- LSK cells of pooled Cebpa Cre/wt R26 EYFP reporter mice to identify differentially regulated genes in Cebpa+ versus Cebpa- LSK cells. RNA was isolated from three biological replicates of Cebpa/EYFP+ LSK cells and two biological replicates of Cebpa/EYFP- LSK cells. To determine if the identified genes were truly dependent on Cebpa expression, we also performed global gene expression profilling of Cebpa/EYFP+ and Cebpa/EYFP- fetal liver LSK cells of Cebpa Cre/fl R26 EYFP mice. Induction of Cebpa/Cre expression in these mice leads to Cre-mediated recombination of the floxed wt Cebpa allele resulting in a complete Cebpa knock-out. In this case, RNA was isolated from two biological replicates of either Cebpa/EYFP+ and Cebpa/EYFP- LSK cells. In addition, we included one biological replicate of Cebpa/EYFP+ and Cebpa/EYFP- fetal liver LSK cells of Cebpa Cre/wt R26 EYFP mice to determine the correlation of differentially regulated genes in bone marrow and fetal liver LSK cells.
