IRF4 contributes to chemoresistance in IGH-BCL2 positive diffuse large B-cell lymphomas by mediating BCL2 induced SOX9 expression

ABSTRACT: SOX9 was identified as a prognostic biomarker particularly in IGH-BCL2 translocated germinal center B cell (GCB) subtypes of the diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and plays a vital role in lymphomagenesis. However, the molecular mechanism that modulating the aberrant expression of SOX9 in this DLBCL subset remains unknown. We have demonstrated that SOX9 enhanced IGH-BCL2 positive DLBCL subset resistance to either chemotherapy or BCL2 inhibitor. Moreover, we found that inhibition of BCL2 downregulates SOX9 in IGH-BCL2 positive DLBCL subset. We further identified that IRF4 is a key regulator to mediate BCL2 induced SOX9 expression, alongside with the chip-seq confirmed that IRF4 is a key transcription factor for SOX9 in DLBCL. In addition, BCL2 promote IRF4 entry into the nucleus by enhancing its protein stability, via downregulating of proteosome ubiquitination process, and, therefore, enforce SOX9-mediated phenotypes. Finally, we showed in DLBCL cell lines and xenografted mice model that in vivo inhibition of IRF4 with hIRF4 antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) repressed lymphomagenesis and DLBCL chemoresistance. Altogether, our data support the conclusion that IRF4 plays an essential role in BCL2 induced upregulation of SOX9 expression, and targeting IRF4 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy to cure relapse and refractory DLBCL in the future.

Oncogenic role of SOX9-DHCR24-cholesterol biosynthesis axis in IGH-BCL2 positive diffuse large B-cell lymphomas

Project description:Although oncogenicity of the stem cell regulator SOX9 has been implicated in many solid tumors, its role in lymphomagenesis remains largely unknown. In this study, we showed that SOX9 is overexpressed preferentially in a subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) harboring IGH-BCL2 translocations. SOX9 positivity in DLBCL correlates with advanced stage of disease. Silencing of SOX9 decreased cell proliferation, induced G1/S arrest and increased apoptosis of DLBCL cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Whole transcriptome analysis and CHIP-seq assays identified DHCR24, a terminal enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, as a direct target of SOX9, which promotes cholesterol synthesis by increasing DHCR24 expression. Enforced expression of DHCR24 was capable of rescuing the phenotypes associated with SOX9 knockdown in DLBCL cells. In DLBCL cell line xenograft models, SOX9 knockdown resulted in lower DHCR24 level, reduced cholesterol content and decreased tumor load. Pharmacological inhibition of cholesterol synthesis also inhibited DLBCL xenograft tumorigenesis, the reduction of which is more pronounced in DLBCL cell line with higher SOX9 expression, suggesting that it may be addicted to cholesterol. In summary, our study demonstrates that SOX9 can drive lymphomagenesis through DHCR24 and the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. This SOX9-DHCR24-cholesterol 3 biosynthesis axis may serve as a novel treatment target for DLBCL.

Translocations Activating IRF4 Identify a Subtype of Germinal-Center-Derived B-cell Lymphoma Affecting Predominantly Children and Young Adults

Project description:Background: Germinal center B-cell (GCB) lymphomas are common in children and adults. The prognosis strongly depends on age. Subgroups of GCB-lymphomas are characterized by chromosomal translocations affecting immunoglobulin (IG) loci leading to oncogene deregulation. Methods: Novel IG translocation partners were cloned within the network “Molecular Mechanisms in Malignant Lymphomas” (MMML) by long-distance inverse polymerase chain reaction. Mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas from the MMML as well as pediatric and adult lymphoma trials were analyzed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunhistochemistry. Data from 438 MMML cases characterized by gene expression profiling were mined. Results: Cloning of unknown IG partners identified a t(6;14)(p25;q32) juxtaposing the IRF4 oncogene with the IGH-locus as novel recurrent aberration in GCB lymphoma. FISH analyses of 427 mature B-cell lymphomas for IRF4 translocations revealed 20 IG/IRF4 positive lymphomas (17 IGH/IRF4, 2 IGL/IRF4, 1 IGΚ/IRF4). IG/IRF4-positive lymphomas were predominantly GCB-type diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma grade 3, shared overexpression of IRF4/MUM1 and BCL6 and lacked PRDM1/BLIMP1 expression and t(14;18)/BCL2 breaks. BCL6 aberrations were common. The gene expression profile of IG/IRF4-positive lymphomas was different from other subtypes of DLBCL and a classifier for IG/IRF4 positivity containing 27 genes allowed prediction of 3 additional MMML IG/IRF4-positive cases subsequently proven by FISH. IG/IRF4-positivity was associated with a favorable outcome likely due to significant enrichment of IG/IRF4-positive lymphomas in childhood and young adulthood. Conclusions: Our results suggest IRF4 translocations to be primary genetic alterations in a novel molecularly defined subset of GC-derived lymphomas predominantly affecting children. 271 diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma samples were hybridized to HGU133A Affymetrix GeneChips.

Combinatorial targeting of MYC/BCL2 double-hit lymphoma with mitochondrial complex I and BCL2 inhibitors

Project description:Activation of the MYC oncogene is common in B-cell lymphomas, and frequently associated with compensatory events that dampen Myc-induced apoptosis, such as over-expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl2-family proteins. For example, concurrent translocations of MYC and BCL2 in a subset of Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) lead to the high-grade “double-hit” lymphoma subtype (DHL), characterized by dismal prognosis in the face of current front-line regimens, thus calling for the pursuit of tailored therapeutic strategies. Here, we show that Myc and Bcl2 modulate the sensitivity of B-cells to IACS-010759, a selective inhibitor of mitochondrial respiratory complex I. Myc activation in non-transformed lymphoid precursors suppressed endogenous Bcl2 and sensitized the cells to IACS-010759-induced apoptosis. Treatment with the Bcl2 inhibitor venetoclax also sensitized to IACS-010759, while overexpression of Bcl-2 was protective. IACS-010759 engaged an ATF4-driven Integrated Stress Response (ISR) with dual anti- and pro-apoptotic effects, the latter mediated by the CHOP transcription factor, which contributed to selective killing of Myc-overexpressing cells. In line with the above data, IACS-010759 and venetoclax synergized in killing human DHL cells, and showed strong combinatorial effects in a pre-clinical setting. In a Bcl2-negative Burkitt’s lymphoma cell line, instead, IACS-010759 synergized with the Mcl-1 inhibitor S63845. Altogether, our data point to the combination of IACS-010759 with distinct Bcl2-family inhibitors for therapeutic reactivation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in Myc-associated B-cell lymphomas

Identification of CREBBP bound genes in germinal center B cells

Project description:Inactivating mutations of the gene encoding for the CREBBP acetyltransferase are highly frequent in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL, 30% of cases) and follicular lymphoma (FL, 60% of cases), the two most common cancers derived from the germinal-center (GC). However, the role of CREBBP inactivation in lymphomagenesis remains unclear. Using functional epigenomics and mouse genetics, here we define the program modulated by CREBBP in primary human GC B cells and show that CREBBP regulates enhancer/super-enhancer networks, with specific roles in GC/post-GC cell fate decisions. Conditional GC-specific deletion of Crebbp in the mouse perturbs the expression of a limited set of genes involved in the regulation of signal transduction (BCR, TLR and CD40), lineage specification (NF-κB and BCL6) and terminal B cell differentiation (PRDM1, IRF4). Consistently, Crebbp-deficient B cells exhibit proliferative advantage and show impaired plasma cell differentiation. While GC-specific loss of Crebbp was not sufficient to initiate malignant transformation, compound Crebbp-haploinsufficient/BCL2-transgenic mice, mimicking the genetics ofFL and DLBCL, display an increased incidence of clonal lymphoid malignancies recapitulating the features of the human diseases. These findings establish CREBBPas a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor gene in GC B cells and provide insights into the mechanisms and targets by which loss of CREBBP contributes to lymphomagenesis.
