Presence of mutant p53 increases stem cell frequency and is associated with reduced binding to classic TP53 binding sites in cell lines and primary AMLs [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: With an overall 5%-10% incidence rate in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the occurrence of TP53 mutations is low compared with that in solid tumors. However, when focusing on high-risk groups including secondary AML (sAML) and therapy-related AMLs, the frequency of mutations reaches up to 35%. Mutations may include loss of heterozygosity (LOH) or deletion of the 17p allele, but are mostly missense substitutions that are located in the DNA-binding domain. Despite elaborate research on the effects of TP53 mutations in solid tumors, in hematological malignancies, the effects of TP53 mutations versus loss of TP53 remain unclear and under debate. Here, we compared the cellular effects of a TP53 mutant and loss of TP53 in human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). We found that when expressing TP53 mutant or loss of TP53 using siRNA, CD34+/CD38- cells have a significantly enhanced replating potential, which could not be demonstrated for the CD34+/CD38+ population. Using RNA-sequencing analysis, we found a loss of expression of p53 target genes in cells with TP53 knockdown. In contrast, an increased expression of a large number of genes was observed when expressing TP53 mutant, resulting in an increase in expression of genes involved in megakaryocytic differentiation, plasma membrane binding, and extracellular structure organization. When binding of p53 wild type and p53 mutant was compared in cell lines, we found that mutant p53 binds to a large number of binding sites genomewide, contrary to wild-type p53, for which binding is restricted to genes with a p53 binding motif. These findings were verified in primary AMLs with and without mutated TP53. In conclusion, in our models, we identified overlapping effects of TP53 mutant and loss of TP53 on in vitro stem cell properties but distinct effects on DNA binding and gene expression.

Project description:Differences in chemo-sensitivity of subpopulations of AML stem cells could have important clinical implications. Using in vitro cytotoxicity, xenograft models and colony forming assays, we compared chemotherapy sensitivity between Lineage (Lin-)CD34-CD38-, Lin-CD34-CD38+, Lin-CD34+CD38- and Lin-CD34+CD38+ populations from 26 primary AMLs (19 paediatric and 7 adult). We identified a common recurring pattern of chemo-response associated with a poor clinical outcome: In each of 16/26 (62%) AMLs, Lin-CD34-CD38- cells were the most chemoresistant of the four subpopulations to daunorubicin in vitro. Cytarabine-resistant colonies formed only from Lin-CD34-CD38- populations following tertiary passages through both NOG mice and methylcellulose in these AMLs The presence of chemo-resistant Lin-CD34-CD38- populations was signficantly associated with reduced relapse-free survival in childhood AML. Consistently, CD34 negativity was significantly associated with an increased risk of relapse in a larger retropsective cohort (n=89). Samples enriched for chemo-resistant Lin-CD34-CD38- LSCs with a stem cell profile and an undifferentiated genotype revealed pathways likely to confer chemo-resistance, These strongly indicated dependence of chemo-resistant Lin-CD34-CD38- LSCs on their niche environment as well as deregulated DNA damage responses, lipid and Notch1 signalling, Our findings have major implications for the risk stratification of childhood AML and could lead to the development of novel therapeutic approaches. 3 subpopulations of leukemia stem cells from 9 patients with primary childhood AML were analysed. We compared gene expression profiles of Lin-CD34+CD38- (Q1), Lin-CD34+CD38+ (Q2) and Lin-CD34-CD38- (Q3) cells between 3 AMLs in which the CD34+ cells were most chemo-resistant (AML-1P, AML-6P and AML-10P) and the same cells from the remaining AMLs in which the Lin-CD34-CD38- cells were the most chemo-resistant population. We also compared the gene expression profiles of Lin-CD34-CD38- (Q3) cells in the 3 samples with the highest LC50 values (AML-15P, AML-17P and AML-19P) with that of the 3 AMLs exhibiting the lowest LC50 values (AML-2P, AML-5P and AML-11P).
