DLC1 deficiency at diagnosis predicts poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a complex, heterogeneous malignant hematologic disease. Although multiple prognostic-related genes gave been explored in previous studies, there are still many genes whose prognostic value remains unclear. In this study, a total of 1532 AML patients from three GEO databases were included, five genes with potential prognostic value (DLC1, NF1B, DENND5B, TANC2 and ELAVL4) were screened by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE). Based on this, we conducted survival analysis of the above five genes through the TCGA database and found that low level of DLC1 was detrimental to the long-term prognosis of AML patients. We also performed external validation in 48 AML patients from our medical center to analyze the impact of DLC1 level on prognosis. In conclusion, DLC1 may be a potential marker affecting the prognosis of AML, and its deficiency is associated with poor prognosis.

Project description:Secreted frizzled-related proteins (SFRPs) as Wnt signaling antagonists have been found to be dysregulated by promoter hypermethylation in several cancers including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This study aimed to investigate the methylated status of SFRPs promoter region and its clinical relevance in Chinese non-M3 AML patients.SFRPs methylation in 139 primary non-M3 AML patients was determined using methylation-specific real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The frequency of aberrant methylation was as follows: 30.2% for SFRP1, 27.3% for SFRP2, 5.0% for SFRP4, and 1.4% for SFRP5. Hypermethylation of at least one SFRP gene occurred in 51.8% (72/139) of non-M3 AML patient samples, which was significantly higher compared to normal control (0/21) (P<0.001). Hypermethylation of SFRP1 was potentially associated with N/K-RAS mutations (P=0.043), and the frequency of SFRPs methylation was higher in patients ≥50 years compared to those <50 years, especially for SFRP2 (P<0.05). Furthermore, both whole cohort and cytogenetically normal (CN) patients with high SFRPs-methylated group showed a shorter overall survival (OS) compared to those with low group (P=0.036 and P=0.035, respectively). Moreover, Cox regression multivariate analysis revealed that SFRPs hypermethylation acts as an independent prognostic biomarker among both whole cohort (hazard ratio =1.804, P=0.026) and CN (hazard ratio =2.477, P=0.023) patients. In leukemic cell line HL60 treated with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, the alteration of SFRP1/2 expression inversely correlated with change in SFRP1/2 methylation (r=-0.975, P=0.005 and r=-0.975, P=0.005, respectively). A tendency of negative correlation was observed between SFRP1 expression and its promoter methylation in AML patients (r=-0.334, P=0.038).These findings suggested that hypermethylation of SFRP1/2 was a frequent event and silenced SFRP1/2 expression in AML. Moreover, hypermethylation of SFRPs promoter was an adverse risk factor for OS in Chinese non-M3 AML patients.
