Project description:Many functional consequences of mutations on tumor phenotypes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are only partially known. This is in part due to a scarcity of information on the proteome of CLL. We profiled the proteome of 117 CLL samples with data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) and integrated the results with genomic, transcriptomic, functional data and clinical outcome. We found trisomy 12 and IGHV to be major determinants of proteome variation in CLL (1055 and 542 differential proteins FDR of 5%). Trisomy 12 was associated with limited protein abundance buffering. Protein complex analyses detected functional units involved in BCR/PI3K/AKT signaling in CLL with trisomy 12. We associated protein expression with response to anticancer drugs, and STAT2 protein expression emerged as a biomarker for the prediction of response to kinase inhibitors including BTK and MEK inhibitors. STAT2 protein levels were determined by gene dosage (trisomy 12), stabilization in a protein complex and linked to interferon signaling in CLL. This study highlights the emerging importance of protein abundance profiling in CLL biology.

Project description:Several studies have demonstrated an impaired function of the microenvironment in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), contributing to immune evasion of tumor cells and disease progression. However, in CLL-like monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis (MBL) studies are scarce. Herein, a comprehensive characterization of the microenvironment in 59 MBL, 56 early stage CLL and 31 healthy controls was conducted. Gene expression arrays and qRT-PCR were performed on RNA from CD4+ peripheral blood cells; serum cytokines were measured by immunoassays and proteomic studies; and flow cytometry was applied to evaluate peripheral blood cytotoxic, Th1, exhausted and effector CD4+ T cells, besides monocytic CD14, CD4 and HLA-DR expression. MBL and early stage CLL showed a similar upregulation of cytotoxic and Th1-related genes, expanded perforin+ and CXCR3+ CD4+ T cells as well as PD1+ CD4+ T cells compared to controls. However, a strong inflammatory response was only identified in MBL: enhanced phagocytosis, pattern recognition receptors, IL8, HMGB1, TREM1 and acute response signaling pathways, along with increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines (remarkably IL8, IFN? and TNF?). Of note, this inflammatory drive was decreased in early stage CLL: diminished proinflammatory cytokines including IFN?, decreased IL8 signaling pathway and lower monocytic HLA-DR expression compared to MBL. Besides, this inflammation was especially reduced in IGHV mutated CLL, involving a decrease of the proinflammatory HMGB1 signaling pathway. These novel findings reveal a different pathophysiology between MBL and CLL, paving the way for the development of pre-emptive immunotherapies with optimal benefits at MBL and early stage CLL, before intense immune exhaustion.

Project description:NOTCH1 is mutationally activated in ~15% of cases of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), but its role in B-cell development and leukemogenesis is not known. Here, we report that the active intracellular portion of NOTCH1 (ICN1) is detectable in ~50% of peripheral blood CLL cases lacking gene mutations. We identify a ‘NOTCH1 CLL gene expression signature’ in CLL cells, and show that this signature is significantly enriched in primary CLL cases expressing ICN1, independent of NOTCH1 mutation. NOTCH1 target genes include key regulators of B-cell proliferation, survival and signal transduction physiology. In particular, we show that MYC is a direct target of NOTCH1 via B-cell specific distal regulatory elements, thus implicating this oncogene in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Project description:Purpose: It has been proposed that vitamin D may play a role in prevention and treatment of cancer while epidemiological studies have linked vitamin D insufficiency to adverse disease outcome in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been revealed. In this study, we sought to identify key signaling pathways and molecules that are altered after calcitriol, the biologically active form of vitamin D, supplementation of CLL cells in vitro. Methods: An RNA-Sequencing analysis was performed in primary CLL cells that were treated in vitro with calcitriol. Total RNA was extracted from calcitriol-treated and non-treated CLL cells, while mRNA selection was performed using NEBNext Poly(A) mRNA Magnetic Isolation Module. Library preparation for RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis was conducted with the NEBNext Ultra II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit. The libraries were paired-end sequenced on the NextSeq 500 Illumina platform. Differential expression analysis was performed using DESeq2; genes with log2FC>|1| and P≤0.05 were considered as differentially expressed. Results: Differential expression analysis revealed 85 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (log2FC≥|1| and p≤0.05), of which 28 (32.9%) were overexpressed in calcitriol-treated cells versus unstimulated CLL cells, thus, contrasting the remaining 57 (67.1%) which showed the opposite pattern. Supervised hierarchical clustering analysis, based on the differentially expressed genes, was performed and revealed distinct gene expression patterns between calcitriol-treated and control CLL cells. Moreover, pathway enrichment analysis revealed that calcitriol-regulated genes are implicated in signaling pathways known to be deregulated in CLL biology. Conclusions: Transcriptome analysis highlighted the possible impact of calcitriol on the regulation of immune signaling pathways relevant to CLL pathophysiology.

Project description:Interactions between Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia B-cells (CLL B-cells) and the microenvironment (ME) play a major function in the physiopathology of CLL. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) (composed of exosomes and microparticles) have been shown to play an important role in cell communication. EVs, purified by ultracentrifugation from bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC) culture, were added to CLL B-cells. Microarray study highlighted 805 differentially expressed genes between CLL-B-cells cultured with and without EVs. Of these, CCL3/4, EGR1/2/3, MYC (involved in BCR pathway) were increased while pro-apoptotic genes like HRK were decreased. We showed for the first time the potential of EVs alone to induce gene expression modifications in CLL B-cell, notably in BCR and apoptosis pathways. We concluded that a substantial part of communication between CLL B-cells and BM-ME is mediated through EV.
