Project description:The ETO-family transcriptional corepressors, including ETO, ETO2 and MTGR1, are all involved in leukemia-causing chromosomal translocations. In every case, an ETO-family corepressor acquires a DNA-binding domain (DBD) to form a typical transcription factor – the DBD binds to target genes, while the ETO moiety contributes essentially to its transcriptional property. A direct comparative study of these “homologous” fusion transcription factors may clarify their similarities and differences in regulating transcription and leukemogenesis. Here, we performed a side-by-side comparison between AML1-ETO and ETO2-GLIS2, the most common fusion proteins in the M2 and M7 subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia, respectively, by inducible expression of them in U937 leukemia cells. We found that, although AML1-ETO and ETO2-GLIS2 can use their own DBDs (i.e., the Runt domain of AML1 and the zinc finger domain of GLIS2) to bind DNA, they actually share a large proportion of genome-wide binding regions dependent on other cooperative transcription factors such as ETS- and CEBP-family proteins. Functionally, AML1-ETO acts as either transcriptional repressor or activator, whereas ETO2-GLIS2 mainly acts as an activator. The repressor-versus-activator functions of AML1-ETO is determined by the abundance of cooperative transcription factors/cofactors on the target genes. Through these mechanisms, AML1-ETO and ETO2-GLIS2 differentially regulate several key transcription factors that are essential for myeloid differentiation. Indeed, AML1-ETO inhibits myeloid differentiation of U937 cells, whereas ETO2-GLIS2 facilitates it. Taken together, this study is the first direct comparative study between AML1-ETO and ETO2-GLIS2 in the same cellular context, and the results provide new insights into the context-dependent transcriptional regulatory mechanisms that may underlie how these seemingly “homologous” fusion transcription factors exert distinct functions to drive different subtypes of leukemia.

Project description:Genome binding/occupancy profiling of Runt Related Transcription Factor 1 (RUNX1), CBFA2T3 (ETO2, MRG16) and histone marks by high throughput sequencing. RUNX1 and CBFA2T3 are found overexpressed in pediatric t(12;21) ETV6-RUNX1 B cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. As CBFA2T3 is a transcription regulator, we hypothesized a potential collaboration between the transcription factor RUNX1 and CBFA2T3. Here, we investigated the molecular proximity between RUNX1 and CBFA2T3 proteins on chromatin and identified a regulatory loop between RUNX1 and CBFA2T3.

Project description:These data were generated to investigate the impact on the gene expression of the chimeric transcription factor CBFA2T3-GLIS2 (a.k.a ETO2-GLIS2 and abbreviated here as EG) which is associated with pediatric leukemia (LAM7), to assess the functional roles of several domains of this protein (the ETO2 and GLIS2 moiety) on the gene dysregulation induced by EG through the generation of several mutants (deleted for the NHR2 domain of ETO2: dNHR2 or with a C265G mutation in the GLIS2 moiety: C265G). The different EG forms were cloned into a doxycycline-inducible lentiviral vector and transcriptomes were performed 24 hours post doxycycline induction.

Project description:Undifferentiated intestinal stem cells (ISCs), particularly those marked by Lgr5, are crucial for maintaining homeostasis and resolving injury. Lgr5+ cells in the crypt base constantly divide, pushing daughter cells upward along the crypt axis where they differentiate into specialized cell types. Coordinated execution of complex transcriptional programs are necessary to allow for the maintenance of undifferentiated stem cells while permitting differentiation of the wide array of intestinal cells necessary for homeostasis. Previously, members of the myeloid translocation gene (MTG) family have been identified as transcriptional co-repressors that regulate stem cell maintenance and differentiation programs in multiple organ systems, including the intestine. One MTG family member, myeloid translocation gene related 1 (MTGR1), has been recognized as a crucial regulator of secretory cell differentiation and response to injury. However, whether MTGR1 contributes to the function of ISCs has not yet been examined. Here, using Mtgr1-/- mice, we have assessed the effects of MTGR1 loss specifically in ISC biology. Interestingly, loss of MTGR1 increased the total number of cells expressing Lgr5, the canonical marker of cycling ISCs, suggesting higher overall stem cell numbers. However, expanded transcriptomic and functional analyses revealed deficiencies in MTGR1 null ISCs, including deregulated ISC-associated transcriptional programs. Ex vivo, intestinal organoids established from Mtgr1 null were found nearly completely unable to survive and expand, likely due to aberrant differentiation and loss of stem and proliferative cells. Together, these results indicate that MTGR1’s role in intestinal differentiation is likely to be stem cell intrinsic and identify a novel role MTGR1 in maintaining ISC function.

Project description:Purpose: To investigate whether human cord blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (CB HSPCs) transduced with CBFA2T3-GLIS2 (C/G) expression construct recapitulates primary C/G acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods: CB HSPCs were transduced with either C/G fusion/GFP or GFP control contruct (C/G-CB or GFP-CB cells, respectively) and cultured in endothelial cell (EC) co-culture or myeloid promoting culture (MC) for 12 weeks. RNA from transduced cells were isolated at week 1, 6 and 12 in either culture condition. Whole transcriptome RNA-sequencing was conducted using 75bp strand-specific paired-end mRNA libraries and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2000/2500. Results: Unsurpervised clustering analysis of RNA-sequencing of C/G-CB cells cultured with ECs or in MC demonstrated that the C/G-CB cells from weeks 6 and 12 in EC co-culture clustered with primary C/G-positive patient samples, but not C/G-CB cells cultured in MC nor GFP controls. In addition, EC C/G-CB cells had signficant enrichemnt of WNT, HEDGEHOG and TGF-beta pathways. However, both EC and MC cultures revealed up-regulation of ERG and BMP2, genes compared to GFP control, which are genes previously shown to be strongly upregulated in C/G AML, and concomitant down-regulation of the erythroid-megakaryocyte differentiation gene GATA1. Conclusions: We find that lentiviral transduction of C/G fusion is sufficient to induce malignant transformation of human CB HSPCs that recapitulates the transcriptome of primary C/G AML.

Project description:Transcriptome Sequence Analysis of Pediatric Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia Identifies An Inv(16)(p13.3;q24.3)-Encoded CBFA2T3-GLIS2 Fusion Protein As a Recurrent Lesion in 39% of Non-Infant Cases: A Report From the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital – Washington University Pediatric Cancer Genome Project. Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (AMKL) accounts for ~10% of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Although AMKL patients with down syndrome (DS-AMKL) have an excellent 5 year event-free survival (EFS), non-DS-AMKL patients have an extremely poor outcome with a 3 year EFS of less than 40%. With the exception of the t(1;22) translocation seen in infant non-DS-AMKL, little is known about the molecular genetic lesions that underlie this leukemia subtype. To define the landscape of mutations that occur in non-DS-AMKL, we performed transcriptome sequencing on diagnostic blasts from 14 cases (discovery cohort) using the illumina platform. Our results identified chromosomal rearrangements resulting in the expression of novel fusion transcripts in 12/14 cases. Remarkably, in 7/14 cases we detected an inversion on chromosome 16 [inv(16)(p13.3;q24.3)] that resulted in the juxtaposition of the CBFA2T3, a member of the ETO family of transcription factors, next to GLIS2 resulting in a CBFA2T3-GLIS2 chimeric gene encoding an in frame fusion protein. 6 cases in the discovery cohort fused exon 10 of CBFA2T3 to exon 3 of GLIS2, while 1 case carried a larger product that fused exon 11 of CBFA2T3 to exon 1 of GLIS2. Both products retain the 3 CBFA2T3 N-terminal nervy homology regions that mediate protein interactions, and the 5 GLIS2 C-terminal zinc finger domains that bind the Glis DNA consensus sequence, along with one of its N-terminal transcriptional regulatory domains. GLIS2 is a member of the GLI super family of transcription factors and has been demonstrated to play a role in regulating expression of GLI target genes as well as inhibiting WNT signaling through the binding of beta catenin. Although GLIS2 is not normally expressed in hematopoietic cells, the translocation results in high level expression of the CBFA2T3-GLIS2 fusion protein. In addition to CBFA2T3-GLIS2, chimeric transcripts were detected in 6/7 cases that lacked evidence of the inv(16)(p13.3;q24.3). Specifically, we detected GATA2-HOXA9, MN1-FLI1, NIPBL-HOXB9, NUP98-KDM5A, GRB10-SDK1 and C8orf76-HOXA11AS, each in an individual case. Importantly, several of the genes involved in these translocations either play a direct role in normal megakaryocytic differentiation (GATA2 and FLI1), or have been previously shown to be involved in leukemogenesis (HOXA9, MN1, HOXB9). Evaluation of a recurrency cohort of 42 samples including 14 additional pediatric cases and 28 adult cases by RT-PCR revealed 4 additional pediatric samples carrying CBFA2T3-GLIS2 for an overall frequency of 39% in pediatric AMKL. In addition to these somatic structural variations, we also identified mutations in genes previously shown to play a role in megakaryoblastic leukemia including activating mutations in JAK2 and MPL (36%). To gain insight into the mechanism whereby CBFA2T3-GLIS2 promotes leukemogenesis, we introduced the fusion into murine hematopoietic cells and assessed its effect on in vitro colony replating as a surrogate measure of self-renewal. Hematopoietic cells transduced with a mCherry expressing retroviral vector failed to form colonies after the second replating. By contrast, expression of either wild-type GLIS2 or the CBFA2T3-GLIS2 fusion resulted in a marked increase in the self-renewal capacity, with colony formation persisting through eight replatings. Immunophenotypic analysis of the CBFA2T3-GLIS2 expressing colonies revealed evidence of megakaryocytic differentiation. Importantly, the CBFA2T3-GLIS2 cells remained growth factor dependent suggesting that cooperating mutations in growth factor signaling pathways are required for full leukemic transformation. Taken together these data identify a novel cryptic inv(16)-encoded CBFA2T3-GLIS2 fusion protein as a recurrent driver mutation in approximately 40% of non-infant pediatric non-DS-AMKLs. Moreover, the majority of pediatric cases that lacked this lesion were shown by transcriptome sequence analysis to contain other chromosomal rearrangements that encoded fusion proteins that directly alter megakaryocytic differentiation and/or myeloid cell growth. The alteration of a key transcriptional regulator within the hedgehog signaling pathways in a substantial percentage of pediatric AMKL raises the possibility that inhibition of this pathway may have a therapeutic benefit in this aggressive form of AML. Gene expression profiling was performed on 14 single diagnosis tumor samples
