Whole-Genome Sequencing of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ABSTRACT: We used massively parallel sequencing technology to sequence the genomic DNA of tumor cells (leukemic bone marrow) and normal cells (skin biopsy) obtained from patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Patients had either de novo AML (AML with no prior diagnosis of a hematologic disease or exposure to chemotherapy), secondary AML (occurring after a prior diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)), or therapy-related AML (occurring after exposure to prior chemotherapy). We identified somatic mutations in the tumor genomes, including single nucleotide variants, insertions, deletions, and structural variants.

Project description:Background: A fundamental hallmark of cancer cells is their ability to sustain proliferative signaling and cell survival, reflected in a cellular chemotherapy response that is poorly understood. We questioned whether chemotherapy modulated phospho-signaling at 4 and 24 h in vivo could provide information about long-term survival in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and if the signaling response to therapy was more informative than analysis at time of diagnosis. Methods: Peripheral blood was collected from 32 younger AML patients (age 16-74 years), before, 4- and 24 hours after start of induction chemotherapy. Samples were analyzed by 36-dimensional mass cytometry for assessment of alterations in immunophenotypes and intracellular signaling using unsupervised and supervised machine learning approaches. Results were validated by RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry proteomics (Super SILAC). Targeted sequencing was used to characterize patient samples for recurrent AML mutations. Drug sensitivity and resistance testing ex vivo was compared to activation of relevant signal transduction pathways and mutational profile. Findings: 5-year patient survival was accurately predicted in the leukemic cell population at 24 hours after therapy onset by phospho-proteins p-ERK1/2 (T202/Y204) and p-p38 (T180/Y182). RNA sequencing showed induction of MAPK target gene expression and the AP-1 transcription complex in patients with high p-ERK1/2. Super-SILAC proteomics confirmed an increase in the abundance of p38 prime target MAPKAPK2(MK2) 24 hours after start of induction therapy. Ex vivo drug sensitivity testing demonstrated high sensitivity to MEK inhibitors in the patient cells with high p-ERK1/2 measured at diagnosis or 24 hours after start of chemotherapy. Interpretation: Early single cell signaling response to chemotherapy provided precise prognostic information independent of stratification by genetics. We propose that early functional measurement of chemotherapy-potentiated MAPK pathway signaling could identify non-responders to intensive chemotherapy allowing precise treatment adjustment.

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) carries a 5 year survival rate of just 24%. Toxic chemotherapy regimens remain the backbone of standard of care for AML. The FLT3 tyrosine kinase is a recognised AML oncogene, with FLT3 activating mutations occurring in approximately one third of all AML patients. However, therapeutic targeting of FLT3 has proven difficult as monotherapy, with the development of drug resistance and relapse. Characterisation of the signalling pathways regulated by mutant FLT3 is required to identify better therapeutic strategies.

Project description:In acute myeloid leukemias (AML), chemotherapy is frequently followed by disease relapse, yet the mechanism by which AML reemerges is not fully understood. We hypothesized that chemotherapy induces senescence-like dormancy that facilitates survival to genotoxic exposure, allowing AML cells to endure treatment in a transiently dormant state while retaining potential for leukemic repopulation. Here, we show that primary AML cells exhibit hallmark senescence features following treatment with cytarabine (AraC), including growth arrest, increased cellular granularity, senescence-associated-β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity, and senescence-associated transcriptomic alterations. Induction of AraC-induced premature senescence was regulated by the ATR kinase activity and mediated stress-survival. High-throughput single cell RNA (scRNA)-seq analysis of primary AML cells ex vivo and in vivo following chemotherapy suggest active transcriptional programming towards senescent-like dormancy instead of enrichment for leukemia stem cells (LSCs). scRNA-seq of sorted AraC-induced premature senescent AML cells demonstrated a heterogenous population including a fraction of cells with simultaneous expression of dormancy- and senescence-associated gene signatures. Xenotransplantation of AraC-induced premature senescent AML cells into mice demonstrated that senescent-like AML cells maintain leukemia-repopulating potential. Altogether, we propose a mechanism of AML relapse whereby AML cells tolerate chemotherapy via acquisition of a transient senescent-like state.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematological disorder comprised of a hierarchy of quiescent leukemic stem cells and fast proliferating blasts with limited self-renewal ability. Significant plasticity in the AML epigenome and metabolome results in a high rate of drug resistance and relapse, with extremely low 2-year survival rates in the poorest cytogenetic risk patients. The current backbone of clinical induction chemotherapy reduces total disease burden, but does not deplete leukemic stem cells which reconstitute the disease in vivo, and also suffers from severe toxicity of healthy hematopoietic cells. Whilst much work has been done to identify epigenetic vulnerabilities in AML, little is known about protein dynamics, and here we explored the therapeutic inhibition of highly specific CKS1-dependent protein degradation. We report a dual role for CKS1-depdent protein degradation in specifically targeting AML, whilst protecting normal hematopoietic cells from chemotherapeutic toxicity.

Project description:Relapse of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is highly aggressive and often treatment refractory. We analyzed previously published AML relapse cohorts and found that 40% of relapses occur without changes in driver mutations, suggesting that non-genetic mechanisms drive relapse in a large proportion of cases. We therefore characterized epigenetic patterns of AML relapse using 26 matched diagnosis-relapse samples with ATAC-seq. This analysis identified a relapse-specific chromatin accessibility signature for mutationally stable AML, suggesting that AML undergoes epigenetic evolution at relapse independent of mutational changes. Analysis of leukemia stem cell (LSC) chromatin changes at relapse indicated that this leukemic compartment underwent significantly less epigenetic evolution than non-LSCs, while epigenetic changes in non-LSCs reflected overall evolution of the bulk leukemia. Finally, we used single-cell ATAC-seq paired with mitochondrial sequencing (mtscATAC) to map clones from diagnosis into relapse along with their epigenetic features. We found that distinct mitochondrially-defined clones exhibit more similar chromatin accessibility at relapse relative to diagnosis, demonstrating convergent epigenetic evolution in relapsed AML. These results demonstrate that epigenetic evolution is a feature of relapsed AML and that convergent epigenetic evolution can occur following treatment with induction chemotherapy.
