Identification of gene targets of mutant C/EBPα reveals a critical role for MSI2 in CEBPA-mutated AML

ABSTRACT: We mapped p30-associated regulatory elements by ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq in a myeloid progenitor cell model for p30-driven AML that enables inducible RNAi-mediated knockdown of p30. Concomitant p30-dependent changes in gene expression were measured by RNA-seq. Integrative analysis identified 117 p30-dependent regulatory elements associated with 33 strongly down-regulated genes upon p30-knockdown.

Identification of gene targets of mutant C/EBPα reveals a critical role for MSI2 in CEBPA-mutated AML.

Project description:Mutations in the gene encoding the transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPα) occur in 10-15% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Frameshifts in the CEBPA N-terminus resulting in exclusive expression of a truncated p30 isoform represent the most prevalent type of CEBPA mutations in AML. C/EBPα p30 interacts with the epigenetic machinery, but it is incompletely understood how p30-induced changes cause leukemogenesis. We hypothesized that critical effector genes in CEBPA-mutated AML are dependent on p30-mediated dysregulation of the epigenome. We mapped p30-associated regulatory elements (REs) by ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq in a myeloid progenitor cell model for p30-driven AML that enables inducible RNAi-mediated knockdown of p30. Concomitant p30-dependent changes in gene expression were measured by RNA-seq. Integrative analysis identified 117 p30-dependent REs associated with 33 strongly down-regulated genes upon p30-knockdown. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutational disruption of these genes revealed the RNA-binding protein MSI2 as a critical p30-target. MSI2 knockout in p30-driven murine AML cells and in the CEBPA-mutated human AML cell line KO-52 caused proliferation arrest and terminal myeloid differentiation, and delayed leukemia onset in vivo. In summary, this work presents a comprehensive dataset of p30-dependent effects on epigenetic regulation and gene expression and identifies MSI2 as an effector of the C/EBPα p30 oncoprotein.

CEBPA-mutated leukemia is sensitive to genetic and pharmacological inhibition of the MLL complex

Project description:The gene encoding the transcription factor C/EBPα is mutated in 10-15% of all patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML). N-terminal CEBPA mutations cause selective ablation of full-length C/EBPα without affecting the expression of a shorter oncogenic isoform, termed p30. The mechanistic basis of p30-induced leukemogenesis is not well understood. Here, we show that the SET/MLL histone methyltransferase complex represents a critical actionable vulnerability in CEBPA-mutated AML. The oncogenic C/EBPα p30 isoform and MLL show global co-localization on chromatin and core SET/MLL complex components exhibit robust physical interaction with p30. We also show that C/EBPα p30-expressing cells require the expression of an intact MLL protein, as targeted CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis results in proliferation arrest and myeloid differentiation. In line with this, CEBPA-mutated hematopoietic progenitor cells are hypersensitive to pharmacological inhibition of the SET/MLL complex. SET/MLL complex inhibition impairs proliferation, induces cell cycle arrest and causes apoptosis in mouse and human AML cells with CEBPA mutations. Global analysis of gene expression changes shows that inhibitor treatment restores myeloid differentiation potential in CEBPA-mutated cells. Finally, we identify the transcription factor GATA2 as a direct critical target of the cooperative gene regulation between p30 and MLL in CEBPA-mutated AML. Taken together, we show that C/EBPα p30 requires the SET/MLL complex to regulate oncogenic gene expression and that CEBPA-mutated AML is hypersensitive to perturbation of the SET/MLL complex. These findings expand our understanding of CEBPA-mutated AML and identify the SET/MLL complex as a potential therapeutic target in this disease.

The p30 isoform of CEBPA uncovers a silent enhancer to drive the expression of the tumor promoting factor CD73 in CEBPA mutant AML

Project description:The key myeloid transcription factor (TF) CEBPA is frequently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but the molecular ramifications of this leukemic driver mutation remain elusive. To investigate CEBPA mutant AML, we compared gene expression changes in human CEBPA mutant AML and in the corresponding CebpaLp30 mouse model, and identified a conserved cross-species transcriptional program. ChIP-seq revealed aberrantly activated enhancers, exclusively occupied by the leukemia-associated CEBPA-p30 isoform. One leukemic-enhancer upstream of Nt5e, encoding CD73, was physically and functionally linked to this conserved AML gene, and could be activated by CEBPA. Targeting of CD73-adenosine signaling increased AML survival in transplanted mice. Our data indicate a first-in-class link between a TF cancer driver mutation and a druggable, direct transcriptional target.

Arginine methylationof the p30 C/EBPα oncoprotein regulates progenitor proliferationand myeloid differentiation

Project description:The transcription factor CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBPα) is a master regulator of myelopoiesis. CEBPA encodes a long (p42) and a truncated (p30) protein isoform from a single mRNA. Mutations that abnormally enhance expression of p30 are associated with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). We show by mutational analysis that three highly conserved arginine residues (R140,147,154) located at the p30 C/EBPα N-terminus, previously found to be methylated, are involved in myeloid lineage commitment, progenitor proliferation, and differentiation. The conservative amino acid substitution with lysine that retains the amino acid side chain charge enhanced progenitor proliferation, while a non-conservative substitution with uncharged side chains (alanine or leucine) impaired proliferation and enhanced granulopoietic differentiation. Analysis of protein-protein interactions (PPI) suggested that arginine methylation of p30 C/EBPα differentially determines its capacity to interact with SWI/SNF and MLL complexes. Pharmacological targeting of p30 C/EBPα arginine methylation may have clinical relevance in myeloproliferative and inflammatory diseases, in neutropenia, and in leukemic stem cells.

Identification of transcripts regulated by CEBPA protein and its P30 isoform in K562

Project description:To investigate the effect of CEBPA and its mutant isoform P30 on the expression of mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), we utilized the K562 AML cell line carrying a stable and Tet-on inducible CEBPA or P30 allele. Based on the expression of known CEBPA transcriptional targets, we selected RNA extracted from 48 hours of induction (CEBPA or P30) together with RNA extracted from control-induced cells (CTR). 2 biological replicates for each sample have been utilized.

Long-term follow-up of cytogenetically normal CEBPA-mutated AML.

Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze the long-term survival of AML patients with CEBPA mutations.We investigated 88 AML patients with a median age of 61 years and (1) cytogenetically normal AML (CN-AML), (2) monoallelic (moCEBPA) or biallelic (biCEBPA) CEBPA mutation, and (3) intensive induction treatment. 60/88 patients have been described previously with a shorter follow-up.Median follow-up time was 9.8 years (95% CI: 9.4-10.1 years) compared to 3.2 and 5.2 years in our former analyses. Patients with biCEBPA mutations survived significantly longer compared to those with moCEBPA (median overall survival (OS) 9.6 years vs. 1.7 years, p?=?0.008). Patients???60 years and biCEBPA mutations showed a favorable prognosis with a 10-year OS rate of 81%.In this long-term observation we confirmed the favorable prognostic outcome of patients with biCEBPA mutations compared to moCEBPA-mutated CN-AML. The high probability of OS (81%) in younger patients is helpful to guide intensity of postremission therapy.

Dependence on Myb expression is attenuated in myeloid leukemia with N-terminal CEBPA mutations

Project description:Mutations altering the normal function of C/EBPα are frequent in acute myeloid leukaemia with normal karyotype. MYB, a cooperating partner of C/EBPα, is likewise heavily implicated in AML. Here we investigate how the relative requirement for the transcription factor MYB in AML relates to the particular combinations of wild type and mutated alleles of CEBPA. Through knockdown of Myb in murine cell lines modelling the spectrum of CEBPA mutations we show that the consequences of reduced Myb depend on the mutational status of Cebpa. Importantly, Myb knockdown fails to override the block in myeloid differentiation in cells with biallelic N-terminal C/EBPα mutations, demonstrating for the first time that the dependency on Myb observed in AML is much lower in leukaemia with this combination of mutations. By comparing genome-wide analyses of gene expression following Myb knockdown and ChIP-seq data for the binding of C/EBPα isoforms, we provide evidence for a functional cooperation between C/EBPα and Myb in the maintenance of the leukaemia state. This co-dependency breaks down when both alleles of CEBPA harbour N-terminal mutations, as a subset of C/EBPα-regulated genes only bind the short p30 C/EBPα isoform and, unlike other C/EBPα regulated genes, do so without a requirement for Myb.

Homodimer-mediated phosphorylation of C/EBPα-p42 S16 modulates acute myeloid leukaemia differentiation through liquid-liquid phase separation [RNA-seq]

Project description:CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) regulates myeloid differentiation, and its dysregulation contributes to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) progress. Clarifying its functional implementation mechanism is of great significance for its further clinical application. Here, we show that C/EBPα regulates AML cell differentiation through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), which can be disrupted by C/EBPα-p30. Considering that C/EBPα-p30 inhibits the functions of C/EBPα through the LZ region, a small peptide TAT-LZ that could instantaneously interfere with the homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 was constructed, and dynamic inhibition of C/EBPα phase separation was observed, demonstrating the importance of C/EBPα-p42 homodimers for its LLPS. Mechanistically, homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 mediated its phosphorylation at the novel phosphorylation site S16, which promoted LLPS and subsequent AML cell differentiation. Finally, decreasing the endogenous C/EBPα-p30/C/EBPα-p42 ratio rescued the phase separation of C/EBPα in AML cells, which provided a new insight for the treatment of the AML.
