Project description:The emergence of natural products and their derivatives has notably influenced cancer treatment, making morusinol, an herbal medicine-derived monomer, a promising candidate. To comprehensively assess the impact of morusinol on DLBCL cells, we conducted whole transcriptome analysis (RNA sequencing, RNAseq) on SU-DHL-8 and Farage cell lines treated with either vehicle or morusinol.

Project description:CC-122 is a next-generation cereblon E3 ligase modulating agent that has demonstrated promising clinical efficacy in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) patients. Mechanistically, CC-122 induces the degradation of IKZF1/3, leading to T cell activation and robust cell-autonomous killing in DLBCL. Here, we report a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 positive selection screen for CC-122 in a DLBCL cell line SU-DHL-4 with follow-up mechanistic characterization in 6 DLBCL cell lines to identify genes regulating the response to CC-122. Top-ranked CC-122 resistance genes encode not only well-defined members or regulators of the CUL4-DDB1-RBX1-CRBN E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, but also key components of several signaling and transcriptional networks that have not previously been shown to modulate the response to other cereblon modulators. Ablation of CYLD, NFKBIA, TRAF2, or TRAF3 induces hyper-activation of the canonical and/or non-canonical NF-κB pathways and subsequently diminishes CC-122-induced apoptosis in 5 out of 6 DLBCL cell lines. Depletion of KCTD5, the substrate receptor of the CUL3-RBX1-KCTD5 ubiquitin ligase complex, promotes the stabilization of its cognate substrate, GNG5, resulting in CC-122 resistance in HT, SU-DHL-4, and WSU-DLCL2. Furthermore, knockout of AMBRA1 renders resistance to CC-122 in SU-DHL-4 and U-2932, whereas knockout of RFX7 leads to resistance specifically in SU-DHL-4. The ubiquitous and cell line-specific mechanisms of CC-122 resistance in DLBCL cell lines revealed in this work pinpoint genetic alternations that are potentially associated with clinical resistance in patients, and facilitate the development of biomarker strategies for patient stratification, which may improve clinical outcome of CC-122 for R/R DLBCL.

Project description:We studied transcriptional changes by Affymetrix human microarrays in DLBCL cell lines as a result of treatment with GSK126, a potent, highly-selective, SAM-competitive, small molecule inhibitor of EZH2 In eukaryotes, epigenetic post-translational modification of histones is critical for regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression. EZH2 is the catalytic subunit of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) and is responsible for repressing target gene expression through methylation of histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27). Over-expression of EZH2 is implicated in tumorigenesis and correlates with poor prognosis in multiple tumor types. Recent reports have identified somatic heterozygous mutations of Y641 and A677 residues within the catalytic SET domain of EZH2 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). The Y641 residue is the most frequently mutated residue, with 22% of GCB (Germinal Cell B-cell) DLBCL and FL harboring mutations at this site. These lymphomas exhibit increased H3K27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) due to altered substrate preferences of the mutant enzymes. However, it is unknown whether direct inhibition of EZH2 methyltransferase activity alone will be effective in treating lymphomas carrying activating EZH2 mutations. Herein, we demonstrate that GSK126, a potent, highly-selective, SAM-competitive, small molecule inhibitor of EZH2 methyltransferase activity, decreases global H3K27me3 levels and reactivates silenced PRC2 target genes. GSK126 effectively inhibits the proliferation of EZH2 mutant DLBCL cell lines and dramatically inhibits the growth of EZH2 mutant DLBCL xenografts in mice. Together, these data demonstrate that pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 activity may provide a promising treatment for EZH2 mutant lymphoma. 10 DLBCL cell lines (7 mutant and 3 wild type EZH2), that were differentially sensitive to GSK126 in proliferation assays, were treated for 72 hours, in duplicate (n=2), with either DMSO (vehicle) or 500nM of GSK126, a potent selective EZH2 inhibitor. EZH2 mutant cell lines are Pfeiffer, KARPAS-422, WSU-DLCL2, SU-DHL-10, SU-DHL-6, DB and SU-DHL-4. EZH2 wildtype cell lines are HT, OCI-LY-19 and Toledo.

Project description:To further figure out the molecular mechanisms of IL-17A-mediated DLBCL cells growth, we used the Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray (4×44K, Agilent Technologies) to identify genes expression. Six samples of SU-DHL-2 cells (2×10^6 cells/ml) co-cultured with or without IL-17A (200pg/ml) for 72hr in vivo. Three samples of SU-DHL-2 cells were all co-cultured with IL-17A , other three samples of SU-DHL-2 cells without IL-17A treatment were used as controls. Then, all these six samples of SU-DHL-2 cells were measured by microarray.

Project description:SU-DHL-5 cells display limited expression of the SUMO isopeptidase SENP6. In this experiment, the chromatin associated fraction of SU-DHL-5 cells was analysed by mass spectrometry. SU-DHL-5 cells were either stably transfected with an empty vector or with a SENP6 expression construct. Changes in protein levels were compared between these two cell lines in triplicate experiments.

Project description:The pathogenesis of c-MYC and BCL2 double-expressor diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DE DLBCL) remains unclear, particularly in terms of the tumor microenvironment. We aimed to analyze the immune microenvironment of DE DLBCLs to understand the basis of DE-DLBCL's aggressiveness and identify potential therapeutic targets. To discover the key features of DE-DLBCL, fourteen non-DE and 14 DE DLBCL samples underwent RNA-seq analysis. For validation, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from 126 patients were immunostained for CD3, CD4, CD8, FOXP3, CD68 and CD163. Two c-MYClow/BCL2low DLBCL (SU-DHL-10 and HT) and 2 c-MYChigh/BCL2high DLBCL cell lines (DOHH2 and OCI-LY8) were used for in vitro assays. The prognostic impact of differential chemokine secretion and immune profiles was evaluated in a mouse tumor model. RNA-seq analysis revealed significantly higher CCL2 and CCR2 mRNA in DE DLBCLs (Padj < 0.05). Public datasets showed higher M2/macrophage ratio and lower T cell infiltration in DE DLBCLs (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry confirmed higher M2 macrophages and M2/total macrophage ratio in DE DLBCL (P=0.010 and P=0.098, respectively). In vitro, c-MYChigh/BCL2high cell lines exhibited increased CCL2 secretion, as seen in RNA-seq analysis. Knockdown and overexpression studies identified that MYC and BCL2 overexpression increased CCL2 secretion by upregulation of NF-κB p65 subunit, and the increased CCL2 secretion was crucial for M2 polarization. In mouse tumor models, CCL2 was related to aggressive tumor growth and an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. In conclusion, the increased CCL2/CCR2 axis confers aggressiveness of DE DLBCLs by increasing M2 polarization.

Project description:Background: Bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) proteins and the spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) represent promising targets in Diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL) and Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL). We evaluated the anti-lymphoma activity of the isoform specific bivalent BET inhibitor AZD5153 (AZD) and the pan-BET inhibitor I-BET151 (I-BET) as single agents and in combination with SYK inhibitor Entospletinib in vitro. Methods: Single agent exposures were evaluated on two DLBCL and two BL cell lines analyzing cell proliferation and metabolic activity. Proliferation, metabolic activity, apoptosis, cell cycle and morphology were investigated after combined AZD or I-BET and Ento exposure. RNAseq of combined AZD+Ento exposure was characterized in SU-DHL-4.

Proliferation, metabolic activity, apoptosis, cell cycle and morphology were investigated after combined AZD or I-BET and Ento exposure. RNAseq of combined AZD+Ento exposure was characterized in SU-DHL-4. Results: Both BET inhibitors reduced cell proliferation/metabolic activity dose and time de-pendently. Combined BET and SYK inhibition enhanced the anti-proliferative effect and induc-ing a G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. SU-DHL-4 demonstrated a pronounced modulation of gene expres-sion by AZD, which was markedly increased by additional SYK inhibition. Functional enrich-ment analyses identified combination-specific GO terms related to cell division, transport and DNA replication. Genes such as PLEKHH3, MYB, SLC8A1, PARP9, HSPB1 and S100A4 were iden-tified as the presumable key regulators. Conclusion: Simultaneous inhibition of BET and SYK enhanced the anti-proliferative effects, and especially the combination-specific gene expression signature.
