Dissecting the early steps of MLL induced leukaemogenic transformation using a new mouse model of AML

ABSTRACT: Leukaemogenic mutations commonly disrupt cellular differentiation and/or enhance proliferation, thus perturbing the regulatory programs that control self-renewal and differentiation of stem and progenitor cells. Translocations involving the Mll1 (Kmt2a) gene generate powerful oncogenic fusion proteins, predominantly affecting infant and paediatric AML and ALL patients. The early stages of leukaemogenic transformation are typically inaccessible from human patients and conventional mouse models. Here, we took advantage of cells conditionally blocked at the multipotent haematopoietic progenitor stage to develop a new MLL-r model capturing the early cellular and molecular consequences of MLL-ENL expression based on a clear clonal relationship between the parental and leukaemic cells. Through a combination of scRNA-seq, ATAC-seq and genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 screening, we identified pathways and genes likely to drive the early phases of leukaemogenesis. Finally, we demonstrated the broad utility of using matched parental and transformed cells for small molecule inhibitor studies by validating both known and new potential therapeutic targets.

Dissecting the early steps of MLL induced leukaemogenic transformation using a new mouse model of AML [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Leukaemogenic mutations commonly disrupt cellular differentiation and/or enhance proliferation, thus perturbing the intricate regulatory programs that control multi-lineage differentiation and self-renewal in haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Translocations involving the Mll1 gene generate particularly powerful oncogenic fusion proteins, predominantly affecting infant and paediatric AML and ALL patients. The early stages of leukaemogenic transformation are typically inaccessible from human patient samples, and are not captured by conventional mouse models. Here, we took advantage of conditionally immortalised multipotent haematopoietic progenitor cells to develop a new MLL-r model capturing the early cellular and molecular consequences of MLL-ENL expression based on a clear clonal relationship between the parental and MLL-leukaemic cells. Through a combination of scRNA-seq, ATAC-seq and genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 screening, we identified pathways and genes likely to be important during the early phases of leukaemogenesis. Finally, we demonstrate the broad utility of using matched parental and transformed cells for small molecule inhibitor studies by validating both known and new potential therapeutic targets.

Transcriptomic profiling of MLL-ENL and delta YEATS mutant

Project description:To investigate the contribution of ENL YEATS domain and downstream sequences in MLL-ENL leukemogenesis program, we generated MLL-ENL and MLL-ENL ∆YEATS (ENL aa372-559) cell lines by retrovirally introducing these constructs into lineage negative hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs).

Quantitative cellular proteome analysis of Fetal- and Adult-Derived MLL-Rearranged Leukemia

Project description:Infant and adult MLL-rearranged (MLLr) leukemia represents a disease with few treatment options and a dismal prognosis. Here, we present an in-depth proteomic characterization of in utero-initiated and adult-onset MLLr leukemia in a mouse model of MLL-ENL-mediated leukemogenesis. We characterize early proteomic events of MLL-ENL-mediated transformation in fetal and adult progenitors.

Development of MLL-rearranged leukemia is dependent on a transcriptional program orchestradt by C/EBPα

Project description:Translocations involving the MLL genes are frequently found in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and are associated with poor prognosis. The MLL fusion proteins act as aberrant transcription factor activating a transcriptional program that transforms the cells, potentially through collaboration with other transcription factors. To investigate this we searched gene expression profiles from patients with MLL-rearranged AML compared with normal hematopoietic progenitor cells for transcriptional regulators and found targets of C/EBPα to be up-regulated in the AML samples, suggesting that C/EBPα might collaborate with MLL fusion proteins in the initial transformation process. We could show that transformation by MLL fusion proteins is dependent on C/EBPα activity both in early progenitors as well as in GMPs. In contrast, C/EBPα was found to be indispensable in an already established leukemia. These results suggest that C/EBPα play an important role in the early transforming event of leukemogenesis. We used microarray to study the early transcriptional changes induced by MLL-ENL expression and we identified a combined C/EBPα / MLL-ENL transcriptional signature. 3 Cebpaflox/flox;Mx1Cre and 3 Cebpaflox/flox;Mx1Cre- mice were sacrificed 14 days after pIpC injection and bone marrow cells were harvested, enriched for cKit-expression and transduced with a pMIG retroviral vector expressing the MLL-ENL fusion protein and GFP. 72 h post first transduction, GFP-positive or negative PreGM cells were sorted.

Expression data from conditionally immortalized MLL-AF9 and MLL-ENL hematopoietic progenitor cells following loss of MLL-fusion oncogene

Project description:Chromosomal translocations encoding the MLL-AF9 and MLL-ENL fusion transcription factors are prevalent in infant acute leukaemia and therapy-related leukaemia. In order to conditionally express the MLL-fusion oncogene in primary haematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC), retroviral delivery of the Tet-off expression system was used (Horton et al., Cancer Res, 2005). Treatment of the conditional cells with Doxycycline caused a decrease in MLL-AF9/ENL mRNA and protein expression, and resulted in terminal differentiation of the cells. By analysing global changes in gene expression after treatment of cells with Doxycycline we were able to identify a number of potential transcriptional target genes of the MLL-AF9 and MLL-ENL fusion oncogenes.

Genome-wide analysis of gene expression in MLL translocation transformed mouse leukemia cell lines

Project description:The purpose of this study is to investigate the transcriptional programs as it relates to disease latency initiated by different MLL fusion proteins, including: MLL-AF1p, MLL-AF6, MLL-Gas7, MLL-AF9 and MLL-ENL. Leukemia cell lines were established by transforming kit+ mouse bone marrow cells with retroviruses coding MLL-AF1p, MLL-AF6, MLL-Gas7, MLL-AF9 or MLL-ENL. At early phase after the cell lines were established, cells growing at exponential phase (cell density at 0.5~1x106/ml) were harvested for RNA extraction and sequencing purpose.

Initiation of MLL-rearranged AML is orchestrated by C/EBPa

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is associated with a number of genetic and epigenetic events that result in malignant transformation of hematopoietic cells. In particular, transcription factors essential for normal hematopoiesis and stem cell function are often found mutated leading to the formation of leukemic stem cells and the accumulation of immature blasts. Among them, translocations involving the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene at chromosome band 11q23 are one of the most commonly events (~10 %) and is associated with poor prognosis in human leukemias. Whereas the downstream effects of MLL-fusion proteins are well established, the modes on which these effects are mediated are still unclear and whether MLL-fusion proteins are dependent on other transcriptional regulators or act alone remains elusive. To investigate this we searched gene expression profiles from patients with MLL-rearranged AML compared with normal hematopoietic progenitor cells for transcriptional regulators and found targets of C/EBPα to be up-regulated in the AML samples, suggesting that C/EBPα might collaborate with MLL-fusion proteins in the initial transformation process. We could show that transformation by MLL-fusion proteins is dependent on C/EBPα activity both in early progenitors as well as in GMPs. In contrast, C/EBPα was found to be indispensable in an already established leukemia. These finding led us to study the early transcriptional changes induced by MLL-ENL expression and we identified a combined C/EBPα / MLL-ENL transcriptional signature. Collectivly, our data shows that C/EBPα configure a proper chromatin state required for MLL-fusions to induce malignant transformation.
