Mutant CEBPA promotes tolerance to inflammatory stress through deficient AP-1 activation [RNA-Seq]


ABSTRACT: The CEBPA transcription factor is frequently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Mutations in the CEBPA gene, which are typically biallelic, result in the production of a shorter isoform known as p30. Both the canonical 42-kDa isoform (p42) and the AML-associated p30 isoform bind chromatin and activate transcription, but the specific transcriptional programs controlled by each protein and how they are linked to a selective advantage in AML is not well understood. Here, we show that cells expressing the AML-associated p30 have reduced baseline inflammatory gene expression and display altered dynamics of transcriptional induction in response to LPS, consequently impacting cytokine secretion. This confers p30-expressing cells an increased resistance to the adverse effects of prolonged exposure to inflammatory signals. Mechanistically, we show that these differences primarily result from the differential regulation of AP-1 family proteins. In addition, we find that the altered function of the AP-1 member ATF4 in p30-expressing cells alters their response to ER stress. Collectively, these findings uncover a novel link between mutant CEBPA, inflammation and the stress response, potentially revealing a new vulnerability in AML.
