Convergent Epigenetic Evolution Drives Relapse in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ABSTRACT: Relapse of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is highly aggressive and often treatment refractory. We analyzed previously published AML relapse cohorts and found that 40% of relapses occur without changes in driver mutations, suggesting that non-genetic mechanisms drive relapse in a large proportion of cases. We therefore characterized epigenetic patterns of AML relapse using 26 matched diagnosis-relapse samples with ATAC-seq. This analysis identified a relapse-specific chromatin accessibility signature for mutationally stable AML, suggesting that AML undergoes epigenetic evolution at relapse independent of mutational changes. Analysis of leukemia stem cell (LSC) chromatin changes at relapse indicated that this leukemic compartment underwent significantly less epigenetic evolution than non-LSCs, while epigenetic changes in non-LSCs reflected overall evolution of the bulk leukemia. Finally, we used single-cell ATAC-seq paired with mitochondrial sequencing (mtscATAC) to map clones from diagnosis into relapse along with their epigenetic features. We found that distinct mitochondrially-defined clones exhibit more similar chromatin accessibility at relapse relative to diagnosis, demonstrating convergent epigenetic evolution in relapsed AML. These results demonstrate that epigenetic evolution is a feature of relapsed AML and that convergent epigenetic evolution can occur following treatment with induction chemotherapy.

Gene expression profiles associated with pediatric relapsed AML

Project description:In high income countries 90% of the patients achieve complete remission after induction chemotherapy. However, 30-40% of these patients suffer from relapse. These patients face a dismal prognosis, as the majority (>60%) of relapsed patients die within 5 years. As a result, outcome for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients remains poor and has stabilized over the past 15 years. To prevent or better treat relapse of AML is the best option to improve outcome. Despite patient specific differences, most patients do respond to initial therapy. This suggests that at relapse, mechanisms are active that cause the altered response to chemotherapy. Detailed understanding of mechanisms that cause relapse remain largely elusive. To gain insight in the molecular pathways that characterize relapsed AML, we performed genome wide gene expression profiling on paired initial diagnosis and relapsed AML samples of 23 pediatric AML patients. We used pathway analysis to find which molecular pathways are involved in altered gene expression between diagnosis and relapse samples of individual AML patients. 23 paired diagnosis and relapse bone marrow or peripheral blood samples were collected and cryo-preserved. They were later thawed and processed for hybridization to Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays.

Genotyping of human AMP patients using 27 pairs of diagnostic and relapsed AML samples

Project description:Relapse is the commonest cause of death in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but the mechanisms leading to relapse are unclear. Recently, acquisition of segmental uniparental disomy (UPD) by mitotic recombination (MR) has been reported in 15-20% of AML samples at diagnosis using whole genome single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. These cytogenetically invisible abnormalities are associated with homozygous mutations in several types of malignancy. Clonal evolution of heterozygous to homozygous mutations by MR could provide a mechanism for relapse. Experiment Overall Design: DNA from 27 pairs of diagnostic and relapsed AML samples were analysed using Affymetrix 10K SNP arrays. The genotype data of relapsed AML were compared with the data from the corresponding presentation AML.

A gene expression profile associated with relapse of cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia is enriched for leukemia stem cell genes

Project description:Relapse, associated with therapy resistance, is a major clinical problem in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), yet little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. Using genome wide gene expression profiling on 11 paired samples from diagnosis and relapse, we show that the expression of a substantial number of genes was altered in a highly consistent manner between these disease stages. Furthermore, the relapse associated gene expression profile was significantly enriched for leukemia stem cell (LSC) genes, indicating that recurring AML is characterized by increased stemness, and supporting the concept that it is due to the outgrowth of chemotherapy resistant LSCs. Paired peripheral blood samples from the times of diagnosis and relapse were obtained from 11 patients with cytogenetically normal AML. cRNA was hybridized to Affymetrix human ST1.1 arrays.

Clonal evolution in relapsed NPM1 mutated acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Mutations in the nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) gene are considered as a founder event in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To address the role of clonal evolution in relapsed NPM1 mutated (NPM1mut) AML, we applied high-resolution genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array profiling to detect copy number alterations (CNA) and uniparental disomies (UPD) and performed comprehensive gene mutation screening in 53 paired bone marrow/peripheral blood samples obtained at diagnosis and relapse. At diagnosis, 15 aberrations (CNAs, n=10; UPDs, n=5) were identified in 13 patients (25%), whereas at relapse 56 genomic alterations (CNAs, n=46; UPDs, n=10) were detected in 29 patients (55%) indicating an increase in genomic complexity. Recurrent aberrations acquired at relapse included deletions affecting tumor suppressor genes [ETV6 (n=3), TP53 (n=2), NF1 (n=2), WT1 (n=3), FHIT (n=2)] and homozygous FLT3 mutations acquired via UPD13q (n=7). DNMT3A mutations (DNMT3Amut) showed the highest stability (97%). Persistence of DNMT3Amut in 5 patients who lost NPM1mut at relapse suggests that DNMT3Amut may precede NPM1mut in AML pathogenesis. Of note, all relapse samples shared at least one genetic aberration with the matched primary AML sample implying common ancestral clones. In conclusion, our study reveals novel insights into clonal evolution in NPM1mut AML. Bone marrow or peripheral blood samples from diagnosis, remission and relapse of 53 NPM1 mutated AML patient were analyzed on the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 Array. Raw data (CEL-Files) were transformed to genotyping files (CHP) with Genotyping Console Version 4.2 from Affymetrix. Bioinformatic evaluation of CNAs was performed using dChipSNP and circular binary segmentation .

Dormant leukemia stem cells reinforced by chemotherapy drive early treatment failure in acute myeloid leukemia patients [scRNA_PDX]

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia is characterized by a minor fraction of primitive leukemia stem cells (LSCs) that sustain disease propagation and may be at the origin of late relapse. Yet, LSC contribution to early therapy resistance and AML regeneration remains controversial. We prospectively identified LSCs in NPM1-mutated AML patients and xenografts by means of a microRNA-126 reporter and single cell RNA sequencing, precisely discriminating LSCs from regenerating hematopoiesis, and assessed their longitudinal response to chemotherapy. We here show that chemotherapy resulted in distinct outcomes within AML subpopulations: while the bulk leukemia proliferated and differentiated with expression of oxidative-phosphorylation signatures, persisting miR-126high LSCs enforced protective stemness and dormancy features, along with a generalized inflammatory and senescence-associated response. miR-126high LSCs were enriched at diagnosis in patients with chemotherapy-refractory AML. We derived a novel miR-126high LSC transcriptional signature, which robustly stratified patients for overall survival in large AML cohorts, shining the spotlight on LSCs as determinants of early therapy resistance.

Proteomics analysis for RBM17 in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients suffer from chemo-resistance, high relapse frequency, and low overall survival rate, outcomes driven by leukemic stem cells (LSCs). Understanding the molecular mechanisms that support these primitive leukemic cells is crucial for developing effective AML therapeutics. In the present study, we demonstrate that upregulation of the splicing factor RBM17 preferentially marks and sustains the primitive compartment of AML. We performed shotgun proteomics to characterize the proteome changes upon RBM17 knockdown in AMl cells. In addition, we used proteomics to analyze the proteome changes after knockdown of EIF4A2, a direct splicing substrate of RBM17 in AML cells.
