Metabolic alterations mediated by STAT3 promotes drug persistence in CML [HSC Bulk RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) can acquire non-mutational resistance following drug treatment leading to therapeutic failure and relapse. However, oncogene-independent mechanisms of drug persistence in LSCs are incompletely understood, which is the primary focus of this study. We integrated proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics to determine the contribution of STAT3 in promoting metabolic changes in tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) persistent chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells. Proteomic and transcriptional differences in TKI persistent CML cells revealed BCR-ABL-independent STAT3 activation in these cells. While knockout of STAT3 inhibited the CML cells from developing drug-persistence, inhibition of STAT3 using a small molecule inhibitor sensitized the persistent CML cells to TKI treatment. Interestingly, given the role of phosphorylated STAT3 as a transcription factor, it localized uniquely to genes regulating metabolic pathways in the TKI-persistent CML stem and progenitor cells. Subsequently, we observed that STAT3 dysregulated mitochondrial metabolism forcing the TKI-persistent CML cells to depend on glycolysis, unlike TKI-sensitive CML cells, which are more reliant on oxidative phosphorylation. Finally, targeting pyruvate kinase M2, a rate-limiting glycolytic enzyme, specifically eradicated the TKI-persistent CML cells. By exploring the role of STAT3 in altering metabolism, we provide critical insight into identifying potential therapeutic targets for eliminating TKI-persistent LSCs.

Adaptive Metabolic Response to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Stem Cells

Project description:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are highly effective in treating chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), but primitive, quiescent CML stem cells persist as a source for recurrence. The effects of TKI treatment on CML stem cell metabolism, and the role of metabolic reprogramming in CML stem cell persistence after TKI treatment are not clear. Here we show that TKI treatment in a CML mouse model leads to acute inhibition of aerobic glycolysis, glutaminolysis, TCA cycle and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in CML progenitor cells, but that these pathways are restored with continued TKI treatment. Single cell analysis reveals that primitive CML stem cell subpopulations characterized by lower OXPHOS, glycolysis, nucleotide metabolism, and MYC gene signatures are enriched after TKI treatment. TKI treatment initially results in broad inhibition of energy metabolism gene signatures, but continued treatment leads to metabolic reprogramming in persistent stem cells, with enhanced OXPHOS and MYC gene signatures. TKI treatment enhanced HIF-1 activity in quiescent CML stem cells, and addition of a HIF-1 inhibitor significantly depleted CML stem cells in TKI-treated mice. Our results identify mechanisms of metabolic adaptation in CML stem cells following TKI treatment, which can be targeted to deplete persistent quiescent CML stem cells.

Pyruvate Anaplerosis is a Targetable Vulnerability in Persistent Leukaemic Stem Cells

Project description:Deregulated oxidative metabolism is a hallmark of leukaemia. While use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as imatinib has led to increased survival of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) patients, it fails to eradicate disease initiating leukemic stem cells (LSCs). Whether TKI-treated CML LSCs remain metabolically deregulated is unknown. Using clinically and physiologically relevant assays we generated multi-omics datasets that offer unprecedented insight into nutrient fate in patient derived CML LSCs. We demonstrate that LSCs have increased glucose anaplerosis when compared to normal hematopoietic stem cells. While imatinib treatment reverses BCR-ABL-mediated LSC metabolic reprogramming, stable isotope-assisted metabolomics revealed that deregulated glucose anaplerosis is unaffected by imatinib. Encouragingly, genetic ablation of glucose anaplerosis sensitises CML cells to imatinib. Finally, we demonstrate that the clinical oral-available inhibitor MSDC-0160 targets glucose anaplerosis in robust pre-clinical CML models. Collectively these results highlight glucose anaplerosis as a persistent and therapeutically targetable vulnerability in imatinib-treated CML patient samples.

Gene expression profiling of pre-HPCs derived from CML-iPSCs

Project description:Properties of cancer stem cells (CSC) involved in drug-resistance and relapse have significant effect on clinical outcome. Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have dramatically improved survival of patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), TKIs have not fully cure CML due to TKI-resistant CML stem cells. Moreover, the relapse after discontinuation of TKIs has not been predicted in CML patients with best TKI-response. In our study, pre-hematoopoietic progenitor cells (pre-HPCs), a model of CML stem cells derived from CML-iPSCs identified a novel antigen of TKI-resistant CML cells. Even in the fraction reported as TKI-sensitive, the antigen+ cells showed TKI-resistance in CML patients. In addition, residual CML cells in patients with optimal TKI-response were concentrated in the antigen+ population.

Single-cell molecular analysis defines therapy-response and immunophenotype of stem cell populations in CML

Project description:Understanding leukemia heterogeneity is critical for the development of curative treatments as the failure to eliminate therapy-persistent leukemic stem cells (LSCs) may result in disease relapse. Here we have combined high-throughput immunophenotypic screens with large-scale single-cell gene expression analysis to define the heterogeneity within the LSC-population in chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients at diagnosis and following conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment. Our results reveal substantial heterogeneity within the putative LSC population in CP-CML and demonstrate differences in response to subsequent TKI-treatment between distinct subpopulations. Importantly, LSC subpopulations with myeloid and proliferative molecular signatures are proportionally reduced at a higher extent in response to TKI-therapy compared to subfractions displaying primitive and quiescent signatures. Additionally, cell surface expression of the CP-CML stem cell markers CD25, CD26 and IL1RAP is high on all subpopulation at diagnosis, but downregulated and unevenly distributed across subpopulations in response to TKI-treatment. The most TKI-insensitive cells of the LSC-compartment can be captured within the CD45RA- fraction and further defined as positive for CD26 in combination with an aberrant lack of cKIT expression. Thus, our results reveal the heterogeneity of the CML stem cell population and propose a Lin-CD34+CD38-/lowCD45RA-cKIT-CD26+ population to be targeted for improved therapy response.

Genome-wide comparison of the transcriptomes of highly enriched normal and chronic myeloid leukemia stem and progenitor cell populations

Project description:The resistance of CML leukemic stem cells (LSC) to tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies targeting BCR-ABL leads to persistence of disease in most cases. We have identified novel putative therapeutic targets that are differentially expressed in CML LSCs compared to normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) by transciptional profiling of stem and progenitor cell populations from CML patients and normal donors. These data are used to obtain 97 genes that are differentially expressed in CML vs. normal stem and progenitor cells and 236 transcripts that show evidence of alternative exon usage in CML vs. normal stem cells.

The effect of IM and MSC treatment on gene expression in CML CD34+ cells

Project description:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are highly effective in treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) but do not eliminate leukemia stem cells (LSC), which remain a potential source of relapse. TKI treatment effectively inhibits BCR-ABL kinase activity in CML LSC, suggesting that additional kinase-independent mechanisms contribute to LSC preservation. We investigated whether signals from the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment protect CML LSC from TKI treatment. Coculture with human BM mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) significantly inhibited apoptosis and preserved CML stem/progenitor cells following TKI exposure, maintaining colony forming ability and engraftment potential in immunodeficient mice. We found that the N-Cadherin receptor plays an important role in MSC-mediated protection of CML progenitors from TKI. N-Cadherin-mediated adhesion to MSC was associated with increased cytoplasmic N-Cadherin-β-catenin complex formation, as well as enhanced β-catenin nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity. Increased exogenous Wnt-mediated β-catenin signaling played an important role in MSC-mediated protection of CML progenitors from TKI treatment. Our results reveal a close interplay between N-Cadherin and the Wnt-β-catenin pathway in protecting CML LSC during TKI treatment. Importantly, these results reveal novel mechanisms of resistance of CML LSC to TKI treatment, and suggest new targets for treatment designed to eradicate residual LSC in CML patients.

Chronic myeloid leukaemia stem cells present an aberrant gene expression signature that is not affected by tyrosine kinase inhibitors

Project description:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) revolutionised the treatment of CML at the beginning of the century. However, TKI do not eliminate the leukaemia stem cells, which can reinitiate the disease upon treatment withdrawal. Thus, finding new therapeutic targets in CML stem cells is key to find a curative treatment. Using microarray datasets, we defined a list of 227 genes which were differentially expressed in CML stem cells compared to healthy controls but were not affected by TKI. Two of them, CD33 and PPIF, are targeted by gemtuzumab-ozogamicin and cyclosporin A, respectively. We treated CML and control CD34+ cells with either drug with or without imatinib to investigate the therapeutic potential of the TKI independent gene expression signature. Cyclosporine A in combination with imatinib reduced the number of CML CFC compared with non-CML controls, but at concentrations not achievable in the clinical practice. Gemtuzumab-ozogamicin showed a EC50 of 146ng/mL, well below the plasma peak concentration of 630ng/mL observed in AML patients and below the EC50 of 3247ng/mL observed in non-CML cells. Interestingly, gemtuzumab-ozogamicin seems to promote cell cycle progression in CML CD34+ cells and we found it to activate the RUNX1 pathway in a RNAseq experiment. This suggests that targeting the tyrosine kinase inhibitor independent gene expression signature in CML stem cells could be exploited for the development of new therapies in CML.

Physiologic Hypoxia Promotes Maintenance of CML Stem Cells Despite Effective BCR−ABL1 Inhibition

Project description:ABL1 kinase inhibitors such as imatinib mesylate (IM) are effective in managing chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) but incapable of eliminating leukemia stem cells (LSCs), suggesting that kinase−independent pathways support LSC survival. Given that the bone marrow hypoxic microenvironment supports hematopoietic stem cells, we investigated if hypoxia similarly contributes to LSC persistence. Importantly, we found that while BCR−ABL1 kinase remained effectively inhibited by IM under hypoxia, apoptosis became partially suppressed. Furthermore, hypoxia enhanced the clonogenicity of CML cells, as well as their efficiency in repopulating immunodeficient mice, both in the presence and absence of IM. HIF1−α, which is the master regulator of the hypoxia transcriptional response is expressed in the bone marrow specimens of CML individuals. In vitro, HIF1−α is stabilized during hypoxia and its expression and transcriptional activity can be partially attenuated by concurrent IM treatment. Expression analysis demonstrates at the whole transcriptome level that hypoxia and IM regulate distinct subsets of genes. Functionally, knockdown of HIF1−α abolished the enhanced clonogenicity during hypoxia. Taken together, our results suggest that in the hypoxic microenvironment, HIF1−α signaling supports LSC persistence independently of BCR−ABL1 kinase activity. Thus targeting HIF1−α and its pathway components may be therapeutically important for the complete eradication of LSCs.
