Project description:We report the application of paired Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin (ATAC-seq) and RNA-seq data to profile the regulatory landscape and expression of 5 primary Plasma Cell (PC), 28 Multiple Myeloma (MM) PC as well as 5 cell lines samples. Findings discriminated MM and MM subgroup-specific changes such as the exclusive overexpression of CCND1 and CCND2 oncogenes. DNA accessibility changes were correlated to gene expression in a topologically constrained manner to elucidate novel enhancer - promoter interactions, genes and pathways critical for myeloma biology and developmentally activated or de novo formed enhancers. Additionally, the MM subgroup-specific TF network dependencies were studied to help identify prognostic markers. Finally, we discover and functionally validate the critical enhancer that regulates ectopic expression of CCND2 in MM.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM), a plasma cell (PC) malignancy, is the second most common blood cancer. Despite extensive research, disease heterogeneity within and between patients is poorly characterized, hampering efforts for early diagnosis and improved treatments. Here, we apply single cell RNA-seq to study the heterogeneity of 40 individuals along the MM progression spectrum. We define malignant PC at single cell resolution, demonstrating high inter-patient variability that can be explained by expression of known MM drivers and additional putative factors. Within newly diagnosed patients, we identify extensive sub-clonal structures for 10/29 patients. In asymptomatic patients with early disease and in minimal residual disease post-treatment, we detect tumor PC for a subset of the patients, with the same drivers of active myeloma. Single cell analysis of rare circulating tumor cells (CTC) allows detection of malignant PC, which reflect the BM disease. Our work establishes scRNA-seq for dissecting blood malignancies and devising detailed molecular characterization of tumor cells in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.

Project description:A subset of CCND1-negative mantle cell lymphoma MCL (CCND1- MCL) has been recognized, and around half of them harbor CCND2 translocations. To identify other potential mechanisms driving MCL pathogenesis we investigated CCND1− MCL by by whole genome/exome sequencing. We identified a cryptic insertion of IGK and IGL enhancer regions near the CCND3 gene in three cases. Specific FISH probes detected 10 additional cryptic IGK juxtapositions to CCND3 (6 cases) and CCND2 (4 cases). In conclusion, virtually all CCND1-/SOX11+ MCL carry CCND2/CCND3 rearrangement with IG genes, including cryptic IGK/L enhancer regions not detected with currently used FISH probes.

Project description:Today’s diagnostic tests for multiple myeloma (MM) reflect the criteria of the updated WHO classification based on biomarkers and clinicopathologic heterogeneity. To that end, we propose a new subtyping of myeloma plasma cells (PC) by B-cell subset associated gene signatures (BAGS), from the normal B-cell hierarchy in the bone marrow (BM). To do this, we combined FACS and GEP data from normal BM samples to generate classifiers by BAGS for the PreBI, PreBII, immature (Im), naïve (N), memory (M) and PC subsets. The resultant tumor assignments in available clinical datasets exhibited similar BAGS subtype frequencies in four cohorts across 1302 individual cases. The prognostic impact of BAGS was analyzed in patients treated with high dose melphalan as first line therapy in three prospective trials: UAMS, HOVON65/GMMG-HD4 and MRC Myeloma IX with Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 microarray data available from diagnostic myeloma PC samples. The BAGS subtypes were significantly associated with progression free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) (PFS, P=3.05e−06 and OS, P=1.06e−11) in a meta-analysis of 926 pts. The major impact was observed within the PreBII and M subtypes conferred with significant inferior prognosis compared to the Im, N and PC subtypes. Cox proportional hazard meta-analysis documented that the BAGS subtypes added significant and independent prognostic information to the TC classification system and ISS staging. BAGS subtype analysis identified transcriptome differences and a number of novel differentially spliced genes. We have identified hierarchal subtype differences in the myeloma plasma cells, with prognostic impact. This observation support an acquired reversible B-cell trait and phenotypic plasticity as a hallmark, also in MM.

Project description:Clinical progress in multiple myeloma (MM), an incurable plasma cell (PC) neoplasia, has been driven by therapies which have limited applications beyond MM/PC neoplasias and do not target specific oncogenic mutations in MM. Instead, these agents target pathways critical for PC biology yet largely dispensable for malignant or normal cells of most other lineages. We systematically characterized the lineage-preferential molecular dependencies of MM through genome-scale CRISPR gene editing studies in MM vs. hundreds of non-MM lines. This identified a collection of genes whose disruption has more pronounced or recurrent impact on the MM cell fitness compared to other malignancies. These genes, some known, others not previously linked to MM, encode transcription factors, chromatin modifiers, endoplasmic reticulum components, metabolic regulators or signaling molecules. The current dataset describes the transcriptional profiling of a MM cell line with CRISPR activation for the myeloma-preferential dependency, POU2AF1. The transcriptional profile of CRISPR activation of an additional gene (PANK1), which does not serve as a MM-preferential dependency in CRISPR gene editing studies, is also described.

Project description:PURPOSE. The deregulation of CCND1, CCND2 and CCND3 genes represents a common event in multiple myeloma (MM). The recently proposed TC classification grouped MM patients into five classes on the basis of their cyclins D expression profiles and the presence of the main translocations involving the immunoglobulin heavy-chain locus (IGH) at 14q32. In this study, we provide a molecular characterization of the identified TC groups. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The gene expression profiles of purified plasma cells from 50 MM cases were used to stratify the samples into the five TC classes and identify their transcriptional fingerprints. The cyclin D expression data were validated by means of real-time quantitative PCR analysis; fluorescence in-situ hybridization was used to investigate the cyclin D loci arrangements, and to detect the main IGH translocations and the chromosome 13q deletion. RESULTS. Class-prediction analysis identified 112 probe sets as characterizing the TC1, TC2, TC4 and TC5 groups, whereas the TC3 samples showed heterogeneous phenotypes and no marker genes. The TC2 group, which showed extra copies of the CCND1 locus and no IGH translocations or the chromosome 13q deletion, was characterized by the overexpression of genes involved in protein biosynthesis at translational level. A meta-analysis of published datasets validated the identified gene expression signatures. CONCLUSIONS. Our data contribute to the understanding of the molecular and biological features of distinct MM subtypes. The identification of a distinctive gene expression pattern in TC2 patients may improve risk stratification and indicate novel therapeutic targets. Experiment Overall Design: This series of microarray experiments contains the gene expression profiles of purified plasma cells (PCs) obtained from 50 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM). PCs were purified from bone marrow specimens, after red blood cell lysis with 0.86% ammonium chloride, using CD138 immunomagnetic microbeads. The purity of the positively selected PCs was assessed by morphology and flow cytometry and was > 90% in all cases. 5 micrograms of total RNA was processed and hybridized to the Affymetrix HG-U133A chip following the manufacturer's instructions.

Project description:Immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis (AL) is a rare clonal plasma cell (PC) disorder that remains largely incurable. AL and multiple myeloma (MM) share the same cellular origin, but while knowledge about MM PC biology has improved significantly, the same does not apply for AL. Here, we undertook an integrative phenotypic, molecular, and genomic approach to study clonal PCs from 22 newly-diagnosed AL patients. Through principal-component-analysis, we demonstrated highly overlapping phenotypic profiles between AL and MGUS or MM patients. However, in contrast to MM, highly-purified FACSs-sorted clonal PCs in AL (n=9/22) show virtually normal transcriptomes with only 68 deregulated genes as compared to normal PCs, including a few tumor suppressor (CDH1, RCAN) and pro-apoptotic (GLIPR1, FAS) genes. Notwithstanding, clonal PCs in AL (n=11/22) were genomically unstable with a median of 9 copy-number-abnormities (CNAs) per case; many of which similar to those found in MM. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed in three AL patients and revealed a median of 10 non-recurrent mutations per case. Altogether, we showed that although clonal PCs in AL display phenotypic and CNA profiles similar to MM, their transcriptome is remarkably similar to that of normal PCs. First-ever WES revealed the lack of a unifying mutation in AL
