KMT2C Loss Promotes Small Cell Lung Cancer Metastasis through DNMT3A-mediated Epigenetic Reprogramming

ABSTRACT: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is notorious for its early and frequent metastases, which contribute to it as a recalcitrant malignancy. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying SCLC metastasis, we generated SCLC mouse models with orthotopically transplanted genome-edited lung organoids and performed multi-omics analyses. We found that loss of KMT2C, an H3K4 methyltransferase frequently mutated in extensive stage SCLC, promoted multiple-organ metastases in mice. Metastatic and KMT2C deficient SCLC displayed both histone and DNA hypomethylation. Mechanistically, KMT2C directly regulated the expression of DNMT3A, a de novo DNA methyltransferase, through histone methylation. Forced DNMT3A expression restrained metastasis of KMT2C deficient SCLC through repressing metastasis promoting MEIS/HOX genes. Further, S-(5’-Adenosyl)-L-methionine, the common cofactor of histone and DNA methyltransferases, inhibited SCLC metastasis. Thus, our study revealed a concerted epigenetic reprogramming of KMT2C and DNMT3A-mediated histone and DNA hypomethylation underlying SCLC metastasis, which suggested a new epigenetic therapeutic vulnerability.

Loss of Kmt2c or Kmt2d drives brain metastasis via KDM6A-dependent upregulation of MMP3

Project description:Histone lysine methyltransferases KMT2C and KMT2D are among the most commonly mutated genes in the highly metastatic TNBC subtype of breast cancer. However, it is not known if mutations of either of these genes similarly effect epigenomic and transcriptomic landscape or if a specific downstream target might influence metastases. Here, we generated heterogenous Kmt2c or Kmt2d KO murine TNBC cell lines side-by-side and performed in vivo metastases assay in syngeneic immunocompetent mice. Deficiency for either Kmt2c or Kmt2d, both, induced brain metastases from formerly non-metastatic cells. scRNAseq showed activation of pro-inflammatory pathways but conversely also increase of immune checkpoint blocking genes. Interestingly, histone mass spectrometry revealed changes of H3K27 but not the main substrate H3K4. However, ChIPseq for both, H3K4 and H3K27 modifications showed significant changes compared to wildtype cells. Strikingly, genome occupancy of H3K27me3 was reduced while H3K27 demethylase KDM6A was enriched on genomes of KO cells. Integration with gene expression data revealed significant correlations with histone and KDM6A ChIPseq, identifying them as a main driver of Kmt2c or Kmt2d KO-specific gene regulation. Although our datasets revealed more unique than shared signatures, we found Mmp3 being a common target upon Kmt2c or Kmt2d KO. Indeed, downregulation of Mmp3 reversed induction of Kmt2c and Kmt2d KO-dependent brain metastases. Finally, we found that Kdm6a knockdown reduces Mmp3 levels, again, leading to reduction of brain metastases of Kmt2c or Kmt2d KO cells.

KMT2C methyltransferase domain regulated INK4A expression suppresses prostate cancer metastasis

Project description:Frequent truncating mutations of the histone lysine N‑methyltransferase KMT2C have been detected by whole exome sequencing studies in various cancers, including malignancies of the prostate. However, the biological consequences of these alterations in prostate cancer have not yet been elucidated. To investigate the functional impact of these mutations we deleted the C-terminal catalytic core motif of KMT2C specifically in the prostate epithelium of mice. We show here that impaired KMT2C methyltransferase activity drives proliferation and, when combined with loss of the tumour suppressor PTEN, triggers metastatic dissemination and reduces life expectancy. In our model system and human prostate cancer samples we show that KMT2C-mutated tumours activate the proliferative MYC signalling axis and fail to express the oncogene-induced cell cycle repressor p16INK4A. In addition, we observe a striking reduction in disease-free survival of patients with KMT2C-mutated prostate cancer. Thus, we identify truncated KMT2C as a driver of aggressive prostate cancer.

Epigenomic profiling studies of murine leukemia stem cell (LSC) lines established ex vivo by coexpression of R882H-mutated DNMT3A and NRAS-G12D (ChIP-seq)

Project description:DNA Methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) is frequently mutated in various hematopoietic malignancies; however, the underlying oncogenic mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we report that DNMT3A mutational âhotspotâ at Arg882 (DNMT3A-R882H) cooperates with constitutively activated RAS in transforming murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) ex vivo and inducing acute leukemias in vivo. DNMT3A-R882H potentiates aberrant transactivation of âstemnessâ gene expression programs, notably transcription factors Meis1, Hox-A, Mn1 and Mycn. Mechanistically, R882-mutated DNMT3A directly binds to cis-regulatory elements of these genes and induces focal CpG hypomethylation reminiscent of what was seen in human leukemias bearing DNMT3A R882 mutation. Furthermore, DNMT3A-R882H induced DNA hypomethylation facilitates gene enhancer/promoter activation and recruitment of Dot1l-associated transcription elongation machineries. Inactivation of Dot1l represses DNMT3AR882H-mediated stem cell gene dysregulation and acute leukemogenicity. In this dataset, we provided R882H-mutated DNMT3A, H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 ChIP-seq profiling data of RH-RAS LSCs, and H3K4me1 ChIP-seq data in HOXA9-MEIS1 LSCs. Genome-wide binding of R882H-mutated DNMT3A (Myc tagged; ChIP-seq with 9e10 anti-Myc antibodies) and histone modification profiles for H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 were generated by ChIP-seq using specific antibodies in RH-RAS LSCs. Genome-wide H3K4me1 histone modification profiles were generated by ChIP-seq using H3K4me1 specific antibody in HOXA9-MEIS1 LSCs.

The interaction between DNMT3A with H3Kc36me2 modified nucleosomes

Project description:DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) plays a critical role in establishing and maintaining DNA methylation patterns, essential for the dynamic organization of vertebrate genomes. However, the mechanisms underlying DNMT3A1's recruitment and function within different chromatin environments remain unclear. We find that DNMT3A interacts with modified nucleosomes through multivalent interactions, involving both direct binding to chromatin features and site-specific post-translational histone modifications.

Epigenetic perturbations by Arg882-mutated DNMT3A potentiate aberrant stem cell gene expression program and acute leukemia development

Project description:DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) is frequently mutated in hematological cancers; however, the underlying oncogenic mechanism remains elusive. Here, we report that DNMT3A mutational hotspot at Arg882 (DNMT3A R882H) cooperates with NRAS mutation to transform hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and induce acute leukemia development. Mechanistically, DNMT3A R882H directly binds to and potentiates transactivation of stemness genes critical for leukemogenicity including Meis1, Mn1 and Hoxa gene cluster. DNMT3A R882H induces focal epigenetic alterations, including CpG hypomethylation and concurrent gain of active histone modifications, at cis-regulatory elements such as enhancers to facilitate gene transcription. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated ablation of a putative Meis1 enhancer carrying DNMT3A R882H-induced DNA hypomethylation impairs Meis1 expression. Importantly, DNMT3A R882H-induced gene expression programs can be repressed through Dot1l inhibition, providing an attractive therapeutic strategy for DNMT3A-mutated leukemias. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.
