Project description:RNA sequencing of functionally validated LSC fractions in AML

Project description:Experiments using xenografts show that some solid tumours and leukemias are organized as cellular hierarchies sustained by cancer stem cells (CSC). Despite promise, the relevance of the CSC model to human disease remains uncertain. Here we show that acute myeloid leukemia (AML) follows a CSC model based on sorting multiple populations from each of 16 primary human AML samples and identifying which contain leukemia stem cells (LSC) using a sensitive xenograft assay. Analysis of gene expression from all functionally validated populations yielded an LSC-specific signature. Similarly, a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene signature was established. Bioinformatic analysis identified a core transcriptional program shared by LSC and HSC, revealing the molecular machinery underlying stemness properties. Both stem cell programs were highly significant independent predictors of patient survival and also found in existing prognostic signatures. Thus, determinants of stemness influence clinical outcome of AML establishing that LSC are clinically relevant and not mere artifacts of xenotransplantation. Analysis of gene expression in FACS sorted AML fractions that were functionally determined to be enriched for LSC or not (25 and 29 respectively).

Analysis of gene expression in FACS sorted cord blood fractions that were functionally determined to be enriched for HSC or not (6 and 6 respectively). 12 samples were hybridized to Affymetrix HG_U133A microarray [HG_U133A] or Affymetrix HG_U133B microarray [HC_U133B]

Project description:The leukemia stem cell (LSC) populations of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) exhibit phenotypic, genetic and functional heterogeneity that contribute to therapy failure and relapse. Progress towards understanding the mechanistic basis for therapy resistance in LSCs has been hampered by difficulties in isolating cell fractions that enrich for the entire heterogeneous population of LSCs within individual AML samples. We previously reported that CD200 gene expression is upregulated in LSC-containing AML fractions. We demonstrate that CD200 is present on a greater proportion of CD45dim blasts compared to more differentiated CD45high cells in AML patient samples. In 75% of AML cases examined, CD200 was expressed on 10% of CD45dim blasts; of these, CD200 identified LSCs within the blast population in 90% of samples tested in xenotransplantation assays. Notably, CD200 expression captured both CD34- and CD34- LSCs within individual AML samples. Highly purified CD45dimCD200+ LSC-containing blasts were enriched in primitive HSC/progenitor-like signatures, while CD45dimCD200- nonengrafting blasts were enriched in myeloid-like signature. Moreover, analysis of CD45dimCD200+ blasts from NPM1-mutated AMLs also demonstrated an enrichment of primitive gene expression signatures compared to unfractionated (bulk) cells.

Project description:Despite the advanced understanding of disease mechanisms, the current therapeutic regimens fail to cure most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In the present study, we address the role of protein synthesis control in AML leukemia stem cell (LSC) function and leukemia propagation. We apply a murine model of mixed-lineage leukemia-rearranged AML to demonstrate that LSCs synthesize more proteins per hour compared with the bulk of leukemia. Using a genetic model that permits inducible and graded regulation of ribosomal subunit joining, we show that defective ribosome assembly leads to a significant survival advantage by selectively eradicating LSCs but not normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Finally, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses identify a rare subset of LSCs with immature stem cell signature and high ribosome content that underlies the resistance to defective ribosome assembly. Collectively, our study unveils a critical requirement of high protein synthesis rate for LSC function, highlighting ribosome assembly as a therapeutic target in AML.

Project description:Many cancers are organized as cellular hierarchies sustained by cancer stem cells (CSC), whose eradication is crucial for achieving long-term remission. Difficulties to isolate and undertake in vitro and in vivo experimental studies of rare CSC under conditions that preserve their original properties currently constitute a bottleneck for identifying molecular mechanisms involving coding and non-coding genomic regions that govern stemness. We focussed on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) as a paradigm of the CSC model and developed a patient-derived system termed OCI-AML22 that recapitulates the cellular hierarchy driven by leukemia stem cells (LSC). Through classical flow sorting and functional analyses, we established that a single phenotypic population is highly enriched for LSC. The LSC fraction can be easily isolated and serially expanded in culture or in xenografts while faithfully recapitulating functional, transcriptional and epigenetic features of primary LSCs. A novel non-coding regulatory element was identified with a new computational approach using functionally validated primary AML LSC fractions and its role in LSC stemness validated through efficient CRISPR editing using methods optimized for OCI-AML22 LSC. Collectively, OCI-AML22 constitutes a valuable resource to uncover mechanisms governing CSC driven malignancies.
