Project description:NB4 is an APL derived cell line, carrying the t(15;17) translocation and expressing the PML/RARa fusion protein. Still, an important question that remains to be addressed is whether PML/RARa target genes are transcriptionally suppressed in primary APL cells and re-activated in all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) treated NB4 cells. Gene expression of NB4 cells treated with ATRA at different time points were analyzed.

Project description:Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with PML-RARA expression and late myeloid maturation arrest. The myeloid restriction of PML-RARA dependent leukemia has been recapitulated in multiple mouse models of APL, including PML-RARA expressed from the Ctsg locus (mCG-PR). However, we report here that Ctsg expression is not limited to promyelocytes (as had previously been thought); Ctsg RNA is detectable in KLS cells, and mCG-PR mice express PML-RARA within the same compartment, an event that alters multilineage hematopoiesis. However, these animals only develop myeloid leukemia (consistent with the myeloid restriction of human PML-RARA-associated leukemia). Our results suggest that APL is shaped by myeloid- and development-specific factors that define the ultimate leukemic phenotype rather than PML-RARA acting in a committed myeloid precursor.

Bone marrow from individual mice expressing PML-RARA from the murine Ctg locus (mCG-PR) and littermate controls was harvested from both femurs and tibia. Standard cell lysis was performed and total RNA was extracted from the flow sorted KLS and SLAM cells. A total of 13 specimens including 3 x mCG-PR_KLS_6wks, 2 x mCG-PR_KLS_13wks,2 x mCG-PR_SLAM_7wks, 4 x WT_KLS_12-13wks (control) and 2 x WT_SLAM_6wks (control) were analyzed using Affymetrics Mouse Exon 1.0 ST platform.

Project description:To identify the top 20 up-regulated genes in NB4 TRIB3 shRNA cells in comparison with NB4 control shRNA cells, we examined the microarray gene expression profile of these groups above. Despite the fact that combined therapy of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) with arsenic trioxide (ATO) or chemotherapy dramatically improves the prognosis of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), these regimens can cause systemic infections and secondary leukemias. Here we report that expression of the pseudokinase Tribble 3 (TRIB3) associates positively with APL progression and therapeutic resistance. The elevated TRIB3 expression promotes APL by interacting with PML-RARa and suppressing its sumoylation, ubiquitylation and degradation. This represses PML nuclear body assembly, p53-mediated senescence, cell differentiation, and supports cellular self-renewal. Genetically inhibiting Trib3 expression or disturbing the TRIB3/PML-RARa interaction produces potent therapeutic efficacy against APL and has synergic anti-APL effects when used in combination with ATRA or ATO by promoting PML-RARa degradation and PML expression. Our study provides new insight into APL pathogenesis and a new therapeutic option against APL.

Project description:Because PML-RARA-positive acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a morphologically differentiated leukemia, much speculation has been made about whether its leukemic cell of origin might be committed myeloid precursor (e.g., a promyelocyte) vs. a hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC). We originally targeted PML-RARA expression with CTSG regulatory elements, based on the early observation that this gene was maximally expressed in cells with promyelocyte morphology. Here, we show that both Ctsg and PML-RARA targeted to the Ctsg locus (in Ctsg-PML-RARA mice) are detected in the purified KLS cells of these mice (Kit+Lin-Sca+ cells, which are highly enriched for HSPCs), and this expression results in biological effects in multi-lineage competitive repopulation assays. Although PML-RARA is indeed expressed at high levels in the promyelocytes of Ctsg-PML-RARA mice, it does not significantly alter the transcriptional signature of these cells, or induce their self-renewal. In sum, these results suggest that in murine models, PML-RARA acts primarily to affect the function of multi-potent progenitor cells, rather than promyelocytes. Since PML/Pml is normally expressed in the HSPCs of both humans and mice, and since some human APL samples contain TCR rearrangements and express T lineage genes, we suggest that the very early hematopoietic expression of PML-RARA in our mouse model may closely mimic the physiologic expression pattern of PML-RARA in human APL patients.

Project description:Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) is a fatal subtype of leukemia driven by the translocation between genes encoding the Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) protein and the Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha (RARa) protein. We use mouse hematopoietic progenitor cells expressing PML-RARa and dissect the dynamic changes in the epigenome, transcriptome and genome architecture triggered by the expression of this oncogenic transcription factor during leukemic transformation. We find that PML-RARa induces a continuum of topologic and transcriptional alterations, mostly affecting distal regulatory elements. Furthermore, we identify Klf4 ― a master regulator of hematopoietic differentiation ― as an early mis-regulated gene during leukemogenesis, and deconstruct the dynamic alterations in long-range interactions, histone modifications and transcriptional output triggered by PML-RARa expression at the Klf4 locus. Our study provides a comprehensive overview of the dynamic genomic and transcriptomic alterations induced by PML-RARa, which ultimately block hematopoietic differentiation and induce leukemic transformation.

Project description:Many different molecular mechanisms have been suggested to be associated with PML-RAR dependent transformation of haematopoietic progenitors. Here, we investigated the role of PML-RAR and RXR in the organization of epigenetic structures at a genome-wide level. We identified 2722 high confidence PML-RAR binding sites in the leukemic model cell line NB4 and found PML-RAR colocalization with RXR to the vast majority of these binding regions. Importantly, these results could be corroborated and extended in primary blast cells of two APL patients. Through genome-wide epigenetic studies we show that treatment with pharmacological doses of all-trans retinoic acid ATRA induces global alterations in active H3 acetylation and repressive H3K27me3, H3K9me3 and DNA methylation chromatin modifications. However at the PML-RAR/RXR binding sites, ATRA only induces changes in H3 acetylation. These H3 acetylation alterations triggered by the loss of PML-RAR/RXR binding affect H3 acetylation and RNA polymerase II occupancy at nearby genes. Our results suggest that PML-RAR/RXR functions as a local chromatin modulator and that specific recruitment of histone deacetylase activities to genes important for haematopoietic differentiation, RAR signaling and epigenetic control is crucial to the transforming potential of PML-RAR/RXR. Examination of PML, RARa and RXR binding sites in leukemic cells before and after ATRA treatment, association with transcription via RNAPII occupancy and with chromatin modifications.
