RNA-seq analysis of transcriptomic changes in bone marrow LSK cells in WT, G12D, Ezh2-KO and G12D with Ezh2-KO (G12D_Ezh2-KO) mice [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Epigenetic gene regulation and metabolism are highly intertwined, yet little is known whether and how altered epigenetics influences cellular metabolism in cancer progression. Here we show that EZH2 and NRasG12D mutations cooperatively induce progression of myeloproliferative neoplasms to fully penetrant, transplantable and lethal myeloid leukemias in mouse. EZH1, an EZH2 homolog, is indispensable for EZH2-deficient leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) and constitutes an epigenetic vulnerability. BCAT1, the first enzyme catalyzing transamination of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), is repressed by EZH2 in normal hematopoiesis and aberrantly activated in EZH2-deficient myeloid neoplasms in mouse and human. Enhanced BCAT1 promotes BCAA production in LICs ex vivo and in vivo, resulting in activated mTOR signaling. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of BCAT1 selectively impairs EZH2-deficient LICs and constitutes a metabolic vulnerability. These findings establish an example how epigenetic alterations modify metabolic adaptation in myeloid transformation and provide a rationale for targeting the epigenetic and metabolic liabilities of cancer-initiating cells.

Genome-wide maps of H3K27me3 chromatin modification status regulated by branched chain amino acids (BCAA) metabolism in human acute leukemia

Project description:The branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism plays pleiotropic roles in homeostasis. Here we show that human acute leukemia-initiating cells (LICs), but not normal hematopoietic stem cells, are heavily addicted to the BCAA metabolism, irrespective of myeloid or lymphoid types. Human acute leukemia cells had a high level of BCAAs, transporting free BCAAs into the cytoplasm. Functional inhibition of BCAA transaminase-1 (BCAT1), a catalytic enzyme for BCAAs, induced apoptosis of human LICs, and suppressed reconstitution of human leukemia in xenograft models. Furthermore, deprivation of BCAAs from daily diet in mice transplanted with human LICs strongly inhibited their expansion and self-renewal in vivo. The BCAT1 inhibition inactivates the PRC2 function for epigenetic maintenance of stem cell signatures via downregulation of EZH2 and EED, critical PRC2 components, and inhibited the mTORC1 signaling for leukemia propagation. Thus, targeting the BCAA metabolism should be a powerful approach to erase cancer stemness in human acute leukemias.

Gene expression profiles of mouse BM LSKs, wild-type as well as Ezh2 KO mouse CML leukemia initiating cells (LICs)

Project description:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) management. Disease eradication, however, is hampered by innate resistance of leukemia initiating cells (LICs) to TKI-induced killing, which also provides the basis for subsequent emergence of TKI-resistant mutants. We report that EZH2, the catalytic subunit of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), is overexpressed in CML LICs, required for colony formation, and survival and cell cycle progression of CML cell lines. A critical role for Ezh2 is supported by genetic studies in a mouse CML model. Inactivation of Ezh2 in conventional conditional mice and through CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing prevents initiation and maintenance of disease and survival of LICs, irrespective of BCR/ABL1 mutational status, and extends survival. Expression of the Ezh2 homolog Ezh1 is reduced in Ezh2-deficient CML LICs, creating a scenario resembling complete loss of PRC2. EZH2-dependence of CML LICs raises prospects for improved therapy of TKI-resistant CML and/or eradication of disease by addition of EZH2 inhibitors.

Single cell RNA-seq analysis of transcriptomics in WT and E2-KO, G12D and G12D/E2-KO HSPCs from mouse bone marrow

Project description:Cancers develop from the accumulation of somatic mutations, yet it remains unclear how oncogenic lesions cooperate to drive cancer progression. Using a mouse model harboring NRasG12D and EZH2 mutations that recapitulates leukemic progression, we employ single-cell RNA sequencing to map cellular composition and gene expression alterations in healthy or diseased bone marrows underlying leukemia progression. At cellular levels, while NRasG12D induces myeloid-biased differentiation and EZH2-deficiency impairs myeloid maturation, they cooperate to promote myeloid expansion with dysregulated transcriptional programs. At gene levels, NRasG12D and EZH2-deficiency independently or synergistically control gene expression in single cells. We integrate results from histopathology, flow cytometry, leukemia repopulation, and leukemia-initiating cell assays to validate transcriptome-based cellular profiles. We use this resource to relate developmental hierarchies to leukemia phenotypes, evaluate oncogenic cooperation at single-cell levels, and identify new regulators of leukemia-initiating cells. Our studies establish an integrative approach to capture the kinetics of cancer evolution in vivo.

High Density custom Agilent 44K CGH array analysis of 7q and TET2 region in myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms

Project description:Abnormalities of chromosome 7q are common in myeloid malignancies. Agilent CGH arrays targeted to 7q and Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays were used to characterise 7q aUPD and deletions. Sample #017 in this data series showed a microdeletion encompassing EZH2. Screening of a total of 614 cases with myeloid disorders revealed 49 monoallelic or biallelic EZH2 mutations in 42 individuals, most commonly myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (27/219; 12%) and myelofibrosis (4/30; 13%). EZH2 encodes the catalytic subunit of the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), the highly conserved histone H3 lysine 27 methyltransferase that influences stem cell renewal by epigenetic repression of genes involved in cell fate decisions. EZH2 has oncogenic activity and its overexpression has been causally linked to differentiation blocks in epithelial tumors. Unexpectedly, the mutations we identified resulted in premature chain termination or direct abrogation of histone methyltransferase activity, suggesting that EZH2 acts as a tumor suppressor for myeloid malignancies.
