Project description:Dysregulation of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) promotes oncogenesis partly through its enzymatic function for inducing tri-methylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3). However, it remains to be determined how PRC2 activity is regulated in normal and diseased settings. We here report a PRC2-associated cofactor, PHD finger protein 19 (PHF19, also known as Polycomb-like 3), as a crucial mediator of tumorigenicity in multiple myeloma (MM). Overexpression and/or genomic amplification of PHF19 is found associated with malignant progression of MM and plasma cell leukemia, correlating to worse treatment outcomes. Using various MM models, we demonstrated a critical requirement of PHF19 for tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, PHF19-mediated oncogenic effect relies on its PRC2-interacting and chromatin-binding functions. ChIP-Seq profiling showed a critical role for PHF19 in maintaining the H3K27me3 landscape. PHF19 depletion led to loss of broad H3K27me3 domains possibly due to impaired H3K27me3 spreading from CpG islands, which is reminiscent to the reported effect of an ‘onco’-histone mutation, H3K27-to-methionine (H3K27M). RNA-Seq-based transcriptome profiling in MM lines also demonstrated a requirement of PHF19 for optimal silencing of PRC2 targets, which include cell cycle inhibitors and interferon-JAK-STAT signaling genes critically involved in tumor suppression.

Using various MM models, we demonstrated a critical requirement of PHF19 for tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, PHF19-mediated oncogenic effect relies on its PRC2-interacting and chromatin-binding functions. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing profiling showed a critical role for PHF19 in maintaining the H3K27me3 landscape. PHF19 depletion led to loss of broad H3K27me3 domains, possibly due to impaired H3K27me3 spreading from cytosine guanine dinucleotide islands, which is reminiscent to the reported effect of an "onco"-histone mutation, H3K27 to methionine (H3K27M). RNA-sequencing-based transcriptome profiling in MM lines also demonstrated a requirement of PHF19 for optimal silencing of PRC2 targets, which include cell cycle inhibitors and interferon-JAK-STAT signaling genes critically involved in tumor suppression. Correlation studies using patient sample data sets further support a clinical relevance of the PHF19-regulated pathways. Lastly, we show that MM cells are generally sensitive to PRC2 inhibitors. Collectively, this study demonstrates that PHF19 promotes MM tumorigenesis through enhancing H3K27me3 deposition and PRC2's gene-regulatory functions, lending support for PRC2 blockade as a means for MM therapeutics.

Project description:Epigenetic deregulation is increasingly recognized as a contributing pathological factor in multiple myeloma (MM). In particular tri-methylation of H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), which is catalyzed by PHD finger protein 19 (PHF19), a subunit of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), has recently shown to be a crucial mediator of MM tumorigenicity. Overexpression of PHF19 in MM has been associated with worse clinical outcome. Yet, while there is mounting evidence that PHF19 overexpression plays a crucial role in MM carcinogenesis downstream mechanisms remain to be elucidated. In the current study we use a functional knock down (KD) of PHF19 to investigate the biological role of PHF19 and show that PHF19KD leads to decreased tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Expression of major cancer players such as bcl2, myc and EGR1 were decreased upon PHF19KD further underscoring the role of PHF19 in MM biology. Additionally, our results highlighted the prognostic impact of PHF19 overexpression, which was significantly associated with worse survival. Overall, our study underscores the premise that targeting the PHF19-PRC2 complex would open up avenues for novel MM therapies.
