Project description:Asparaginase is a therapeutic enzyme used to treat leukemia and lymphoma, with immune responses resulting in suboptimal drug exposure and a greater risk of relapse. To elucidate whether there is a genetic component to the mechanism of asparaginase-induced immune responses, we imputed human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles in patients of European ancestry enrolled on leukemia trials at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (n = 541) and the Children's Oncology Group (n = 1329). We identified a higher incidence of hypersensitivity and anti-asparaginase antibodies in patients with HLA-DRB1*07:01 alleles (P = 7.5 × 10(-5), odds ratio [OR] = 1.64; P = 1.4 × 10(-5), OR = 2.92, respectively). Structural analysis revealed that high-risk amino acids were located within the binding pocket of the HLA protein, possibly affecting the interaction between asparaginase epitopes and the HLA-DRB1 protein. Using a sequence-based consensus approach, we predicted the binding affinity of HLA-DRB1 alleles for asparaginase epitopes, and patients whose HLA genetics predicted high-affinity binding had more allergy (P = 3.3 × 10(-4), OR = 1.38). Our results suggest a mechanism of allergy whereby HLA-DRB1 alleles that confer high-affinity binding to asparaginase epitopes lead to a higher frequency of reactions. These trials were registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00137111, NCT00549848, NCT00005603, and NCT00075725.

Project description:The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans includes three classical class I loci (A, B, and C), which are important biomarkers for the transplantation of organs and hematopoietic stem cells. In the MHC, polymorphism is known to be extremely high while interlocus recombination is rare. We report a rare interlocus recombination between HLA-A and HLA-H, which was analyzed using next generation sequencing and nanopore sequencing. In the sample, the genotypes of HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, and DQB1 were firstly determined using the methods of sequence-specific primer, sequence-specific oligonucleotide, Sanger's sequencing, and NGS; however, HLA-A could not be phased. Nanopore sequencing was finally utilized to distinguish the sequence of the novel allele. Finally, the novel HLA-A*11:335 allele was identified as an interlocus recombination involving HLA-A*11:01:01:01/126 and HLA-H*02:07/14/18 alleles; this was mainly achieved by nanopore sequencing. The identification of the interlocus recombination indicated that nanopore sequencing can be helpful in the characterization of novel alleles with complex rearrangements. Interlocus recombination has been identified as one of the mechanisms involved in the generation of novel HLA alleles.

Project description:AimsAsparaginase (ASP) hypersensitivity is a well-known challenge in the treatment of lymphoblastic malignancies. In terms of cost considerations, the cheap native Escherichia coli ASP, the most immunogenic form of this medication, is used in the first line in middle-income countries. Previously, the role of the HLA-DRB1*07:01-DQA1*02:01-DQB1*02:02 haplotype had been established to associate with E. coli ASP hypersensitivity. We investigated a possible cost-effective genetic testing method to identify patients harbouring the risk HLA haplotype in order to pave the way for safer ASP treatment.MethodsIn 241 patients with previously determined HLA-DRB1*07:01-DQA1*02:01-DQB1*02:02 haplotype and known ASP hypersensitivity status, 4 candidate HLA-tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)s were measured, and the performance of the different sets of these tag SNPs was evaluated.ResultsWe identified a combination of 2 SNPs - rs28383172 and rs7775228 - as a tag for HLA-DRB1*07:01-DQA1*02:01-DQB1*02:02 haplotype with sensitivity and specificity values >95%. In line with previous findings, we found complete concordance between HLA-DRB1*07:01 and rs28383172. With bioinformatics methods, the results were also confirmed in the 1000 Genomes dataset in different ethnic groups.ConclusionRs28383172 and rs7775228 are suitable for identifying HLA-DRB1*07:01-DQA1*02:01-DQB1*02:02 carriers. Compared to the rest of the population, patients with hypersensitivity-prone genotype would benefit more from the administration of less immunogenic PEGylated ASP before the hypersensitivity evolves, incurring minimal extra cost.

Project description:IntorductionChondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), also known as high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen, is expressed in melanoma but also other tumor entities and constitutes an attractive target for immunotherapeutic approaches. While recent preclinical reports focused on anti-CSPG4 chimeric antigen receptors (CAR), we here explore T-cell receptor (TCR)-based approaches targeting CSPG4.MethodsThe TCRs of two CSPG4-reactive T-cell clones (11C/73 and 2C/165) restricted by the highly prevalent HLA-C*07:01 allele were isolated and the respective αβTCR pairs were retrovirally expressed in CRISPR/Cas9-edited TCR-knockout T cells for functional testing. We also combined alpha and beta TCR chains derived from 11C/73 and 2C/165 in a cross-over fashion to assess for hemichain dominance. CSPG4+ melanoma, glioblastoma and lung cancer cell lines were identified and, if negative, retrovirally transduced with HLA-C*07:01.ResultsFunctional tests confirmed specific recognition of CSPG4+HLA-C*07:01+ target cells by the αβTCR retrieved from the parental T-cell clones and in part also by the cross-over TCR construct 2Cα-11Cβ. Despite high surface expression, the 11Cα-2Cβ combination, however, was not functional.DiscussionCollectively, 11C/73- and 2C/165-expressing T cells specifically and efficiently recognized CSPG4+HLA-C*07:01+ cancer cells which warrants further preclinical and clinical evaluation of these TCRs.

Project description:Hypersensitivity reactions are the most frequent dose-limiting adverse reactions to Escherichia coli-derived asparaginase in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients. The aim of the present study was to identify associations between sequence-based Human Leukocyte Antigen Class II region alleles and asparaginase hypersensitivity in a Hungarian ALL population. Four-digit typing of HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1 loci was performed in 359 pediatric ALL patients by using next-generation sequencing method. Based on genotypic data of the two loci, haplotype reconstruction was carried out. In order to investigate the possible role of the HLA-DQ complex, the HLA-DQA1 alleles were also inferred. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and a Bayesian network-based approach were applied to identify relevant genetic risk factors of asparaginase hypersensitivity. Patients with HLA-DRB1*07:01 and HLA-DQB1*02:02 alleles had significantly higher risk of developing asparaginase hypersensitivity compared to non-carriers [P=4.56×10-5; OR=2.86 (1.73-4.75) and P=1.85×10-4; OR=2.99 (1.68-5.31); n=359, respectively]. After haplotype reconstruction, the HLA-DRB1*07:01-HLA-DQB1*02:02 haplotype was associated with an increased risk. After inferring the HLA-DQA1 alleles the HLA-DRB1*07:01-HLA-DQA1*02:01-HLA-DQB1*02:02 haplotype was associated with the highest risk of asparaginase hypersensitivity [P=1.22×10-5; OR=5.00 (2.43-10.29); n=257]. Significantly fewer T-cell ALL patients carried the HLA-DQB1*02:02 allele and the associated haplotype than did pre-B-cell ALL patients (6.5%; vs. 19.2%, respectively; P=0.047). In conclusion, we identified a haplotype in the Human Leukocyte Antigen Class II region associated with a higher risk of asparaginase hypersensitivity. Our results confirm that variations in HLA-D region might influence the development of asparaginase hypersensitivity.

Project description:Background and aimsTrimethoprim (TMP)-sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is an important cause of idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI), but its genetic risk factors are not well understood. This study investigated the relationship between variants in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class 1 and 2 genes and well-characterized cases of TMP-SMX DILI.Approach and resultsEuropean American and African American persons with TMP-SMX DILI were compared with respective population controls. HLA sequencing was performed by Illumina MiSeq (Illumina, San Diego, CA) for cases. The HLA genotype imputation with attribute bagging program was used to impute HLA alleles for controls. The allele frequency difference between case patients and controls was tested by Fisher's exact tests for each ethnic group. For European Americans, multivariable logistic regression with Firth penalization was used to test the HLA allelic effect after adjusting for age and the top two principal components. Molecular docking was performed to assess HLA binding with TMP and SMX. The European American subset had 51 case patients and 12,156 controls, whereas the African American subset had 10 case patients and 5,439 controls. Four HLA alleles were significantly associated in the European American subset, with HLA-B*14:01 ranking at the top (odds ratio, 9.20; 95% confidence interval, 3.16, 22.35; P = 0.0003) after covariate adjustment. All carriers of HLA-B*14:01 with TMP-SMX DILI possessed HLA-C*08:02, another significant allele (P = 0.0026). This pattern was supported by HLA-B*14:01-HLA-C*08:02 haplotype association (P = 1.33 × 10-5 ). For the African American patients, HLA-B*35:01 had 2.8-fold higher frequency in case patients than in controls, with 5 of 10 patients carrying this allele. Molecular docking showed cysteine at position 67 in HLA-B*14:01 and phenylalanine at position 67 in HLA-B*35:01 to be the predictive binding sites for SMX metabolites.ConclusionsHLA-B*14:01 is associated with TMP-SMX DILI in European Americans, and HLA-B*35:01 may be a potential genetic risk factor for African Americans.

Project description:Idiosyncratic ximelagatran-induced hepatotoxicity has been reported to be associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1*07:01 and ximelagatran has been reported to inhibit the binding of the ligand peptide to HLA-DRB1*07:01 in vitro. In order to predict the possible interaction modes of ximelagatran with HLA-DR molecules, in silico docking simulations were performed. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were also performed to predict the effect of ximelagatran on the binding mode of the ligand peptide to HLA-DRB1*07:01. A series of in silico simulations supported the inhibitory effect of ximelagatran on the binding of the ligand peptide to HLA-DRB1*07:01 in vitro. Furthermore, direct interactions of ximelagatran with HLA-DR molecules were evaluated in vitro, which supported the simulated interaction mode of ximelagatran with HLA-DRB1*07:01. These results indicated that ximelagatran directly interacts with the peptide binding groove of HLA-DRB1*07:01 and competes with the ligand peptide for the binding site, which could alter the immune response and lead to the idiosyncratic ximelagatran-induced hepatotoxicity.
