Expression and function of PML-RARA in the multipotent hematopoietic progenitor cells of Ctsg-PML-RARA mice

ABSTRACT: Because PML-RARA-positive acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a morphologically differentiated leukemia, much speculation has been made about whether its leukemic cell of origin might be committed myeloid precursor (e.g., a promyelocyte) vs. a hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC). We originally targeted PML-RARA expression with CTSG regulatory elements, based on the early observation that this gene was maximally expressed in cells with promyelocyte morphology. Here, we show that both Ctsg and PML-RARA targeted to the Ctsg locus (in Ctsg-PML-RARA mice) are detected in the purified KLS cells of these mice (Kit+Lin-Sca+ cells, which are highly enriched for HSPCs), and this expression results in biological effects in multi-lineage competitive repopulation assays. Although PML-RARA is indeed expressed at high levels in the promyelocytes of Ctsg-PML-RARA mice, it does not significantly alter the transcriptional signature of these cells, or induce their self-renewal. In sum, these results suggest that in murine models, PML-RARA acts primarily to affect the function of multi-potent progenitor cells, rather than promyelocytes. Since PML/Pml is normally expressed in the HSPCs of both humans and mice, and since some human APL samples contain TCR rearrangements and express T lineage genes, we suggest that the very early hematopoietic expression of PML-RARA in our mouse model may closely mimic the physiologic expression pattern of PML-RARA in human APL patients.

Bone marrow from individual mice expressing PML-RARA from the murine Ctg locus (mCG-PR) and littermate controls was harvested from both femurs and tibia. Standard cell lysis was performed, and total RNA was extracted from the cells and analyzed using the Affymetrix Mouse Exon 1.0 ST platform.

mCG-PML-RARA alters multipotent hematopoiesis.

Project description:Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with PML-RARA expression and late myeloid maturation arrest. The myeloid restriction of PML-RARA dependent leukemia has been recapitulated in multiple mouse models of APL, including PML-RARA expressed from the Ctsg locus (mCG-PR). However, we report here that Ctsg expression is not limited to promyelocytes (as had previously been thought); Ctsg RNA is detectable in KLS cells, and mCG-PR mice express PML-RARA within the same compartment, an event that alters multilineage hematopoiesis. However, these animals only develop myeloid leukemia (consistent with the myeloid restriction of human PML-RARA-associated leukemia). Our results suggest that APL is shaped by myeloid- and development-specific factors that define the ultimate leukemic phenotype rather than PML-RARA acting in a committed myeloid precursor. Bone marrow from individual mice expressing PML-RARA from the murine Ctg locus (mCG-PR) and littermate controls was harvested from both femurs and tibia. Standard cell lysis was performed and total RNA was extracted from the flow sorted KLS and SLAM cells. A total of 13 specimens including 3 x mCG-PR_KLS_6wks, 2 x mCG-PR_KLS_13wks,2 x mCG-PR_SLAM_7wks, 4 x WT_KLS_12-13wks (control) and 2 x WT_SLAM_6wks (control) were analyzed using Affymetrics Mouse Exon 1.0 ST platform.

Transcription profiling of human normal bone marrow CD34+ cells, promyelocytes, and neutrophils and PR9 cell line PML-RARA induction time series

Project description:To better understand the pathogenesis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL, FAB M3 AML), we identified genes that are expressed differently in APL cells compared to other acute myeloid leukemia subtypes, and to normal promyelocytes. Comparative gene expression analysis of 14 M3, 62 other AML (M0, M1, M2 and M4) and 5 enriched normal promyelocyte samples revealed a signature of 1,121 genes that are specifically dysregulated in M3 samples relative to other AML, and that do not simply represent normal promyelocyte expression (â??M3-specific signatureâ??). We used a novel, high throughput digital platform (Nanostring's nCounter system) to evaluate a subset of the most significantly dysregulated genes in 30 AML samples; 33 of 37 evaluable gene expression patterns were validated. In an additional analysis, we selected only genes that are dysregulated in M3 both compared to other AML subtypes, and to purified normal CD34+ cells, promyelocytes, and/or neutrophils, thereby isolating a 478 gene "composite M3 dysregulome". Surprisingly, the expression of only a few of these genes was significantly altered in PR-9 cells after PML-RARA induction, suggesting that most of these genes are not direct targets of PML-RARA. Comparison of the M3-specific signature to our previously described murine APL dysregulome revealed 33 commonly dysregulated genes, including JUN, EGR1, and TNF. Collectively, these results suggest that PML-RARA initiates a transcriptional cascade which generates a unique downstream expression signature in both primary human and mouse APL cells. Experiment Overall Design: 14 human APL/M3 AML samples were compared to 62 AML samples of other AML FAB subtypes (bone marrow aspirates collected at diagnosis, included in GSE10358), to fractionated cells from normal human bone marrow aspirates (5 CD34+ cells, 5 promyelocytes, 5 neutrophils/PMNs), and to PR9 cells before and after Zinc-induction of PML-RARA.

PML-RARA fusion gene requires Dnmt3a to induce acute promyelocytic leukemia in mice

Project description:Loss of function mutations in the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A are highly recurrent in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). DNMT3A and DNMT3B encode the two methyltransferases that are primarily responsible for the de novo methylation of specific DNA sequences during cellular differentiation. DNMT3A mutations are rarely found in AML patients with translocations that create oncogenic fusion genes (e.g. PML-RARA, RUNX1-RUNX1T1, CBFB-MYH11, and MLL-X). To begin to define the reasons why these mutations do not occur together, we used retroviral vectors to express PML-RARA, RUNX1-RUNX1T1, and MLL-AF9 in the bone marrow cells of wild type (WT) or Dnmt3a deficient mice; we also examined the hematopoietic phenotypes of Ctsg-PML-RARA animals (which express PML-RARA in early hematopoietic progenitors and myeloid precursors) with and without Dnmt3a. We demonstrated that the methyltransferase activity of Dnmt3a (but not Dnmt3b) is required for aberrant self-renewal ex vivo that is driven by PML-RARA (but not RUNX1-RUNX1T1 or MLL-AF9); furthermore, the PML-RARA-driven competitive transplantation advantage and leukemia generation both required Dnmt3a. Together, these findings demonstrate that PML-RARA is specifically dependent on Dnmt3a to initiate APL in mice, and may explain why loss-of-function DNMT3A mutations are not found in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia.
