Non-IG Aberrations of FOXP1 in B-Cell Malignancies Lead to an Aberrant Expression of N-Truncated Isoforms of FOXP1

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor FOXP1 is implicated in the pathogenesis of B-cell lymphomas through immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) locus-related chromosomal translocations leading to dysregulated expression of FOXP1. Translocations of FOXP1 with non-IG gene sequences have been also reported, but the molecular consequences of such aberrations remain undetermined. Here, using molecular cytogenetics and molecular biology studies, we comprehensively analyzed four lymphoma cases with non-IG rearrangements of FOXP1 and compared these with cases harboring t(3;14)(p13;q32)/IGH-FOXP1 and FOXP1-expressing lymphomas without underlying t(3p13/FOXP1). We found that non-IG rearrangements are usually acquired during evolution of lymphoma and constantly target the coding region of FOXP1, promiscuously fusing with coding and non-coding gene sequences at various reciprocal breakpoints (2q36, 10q24 and 3q11). Intriguingly, these rearrangements do not generate functional chimeric genes but commonly disrupt the full-length FOXP1 transcript leading to an aberrant expression of N-truncated FOXP1 isoforms, as shown by QRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. In contrast, cases with t(3;14)(p13;q32)/IGH-FOXP1 overexpress the full-length FOXP1. Collectively, our findings point to a dual mechanism through which FOXP1 is implicated in B-cell lymphomagenesis. The primary t(3;14)(p13;q32)/IGH-FOXP1 produces the full-length protein with potent oncogenic activity, whereas the secondary non-IG 17 rearrangements of FOXP1 generate N-truncated FOXP1 isoforms, likely driving progression of disease.

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.

Retroviral overexpression or siRNA mediated knockdown of FOXP1 in DLBCL cell lines and primary human B cells

Project description:To provide insight into the role of and target genes of the transcription factor FOXP1 in mature human B cells and in B cell non-Hodkgin lymhomas, we performed gene expression microarray studies, upon ectopic overexpression or silencing of FOXP1 in these cells. human memory B cells from 2 separate donors were transduced with LZRS-FOXP1-IRES-YFP or LZRS-IRES-YFP (negative control); DLBCL cell lines OCI-Ly1, OCI-Ly7, and OCI-Ly10 were transduced with LZRS-FOXP1-IRES-YFP or LZRS-IRES-YFP (negative control); DLBCL cell lines OCI-Ly1, OCI-Ly7, and OCI-Ly10 were transiently transfected with siRNA targeting FOXP1 or sigenome non-targeting siRNA (negative control), using the Lonza nucleofection system.

FOXP1 orchestration of ASD-relevant signaling pathways.

Project description:Mutations in the gene encoding the transcription factor forkhead box P1 or FOXP1 occur in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. However, the function of FOXP1 in the brain remains mostly unknown. Here, we identify the gene expression program regulated by FoxP1 in both human neural cells and mouse brain and demonstrate a conserved role for FOXP1 transcriptional regulation of autism and Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) mediated pathways. Coexpression networks support a role for Foxp1 in neuronal activity, and we show that Foxp1 is necessary for neuronal excitability. Using a Foxp1 mouse model, we observe defects in ultrasonic vocalizations. This behavioral phenotype is reflected at the genomic level as striatal Foxp1-regulated overlap with genes known to be important in rodent vocalizations. These data support an integral role for FOXP1 in regulating signaling pathways vulnerable in developmental disorders and the specific regulation of pathways important for vocal communication.

Gene expression profiling of FOXP1-silenced diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cell lines

Project description:To identify differentially expressed genes regulated by FOXP1 in DLBCL cells via gene expression profiling of GCB-DLBCL (DB, K422) and ABC-DLBCL (OCI-Ly3, HBL-1) cell lines treated with siRNA targeting FOXP1 or non-silencing siRNA control. Two GCB-DLBCL (DB, K422) and two ABC-DLBCL (OCI-Ly3, HBL-1) cell lines were each treated separately with two independent siRNA oligonucleotides targeting FOXP1 (siFOXP1_308, siFOXP1_309) or non-silencing siRNA (siCtrl). Biological replicates derived from three independent experiments were obtained, RNA-extracted and subsequently hybridized into a human microarray platform for gene expression profiling.

FOXP1 in ABC DLBCL

Project description:High expression of the FOXP1 transcription factor distinguishes the highly aggressive Activated B Cell (ABC) type of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) from the more indolent Germinal Center (GCB) DLBCL subtype and is correlated with poor prognosis. A genetic or functional role for FOXP1 in lymphomagenesis and/or tumor maintenance, however, remains unknown. Here, we report that sustained expression of FOXP1 is necessary for ABC DLBCL cell line survival. Genome-wide transcript profiling reveals that FOXP1 acts directly and indirectly by enforcing expression of known ABC DLBCL hallmarks, including the classical NF-kappaB survival pathway. Our data further suggest that FOXP1 maintains the ABC subtype distinction by repressing gene expression programs dominant in GCB DLBCL and supports a model in which the target of ABC DLBCL transformation is a transitory cell type en route from the germinal center B cell to the terminally differentiated plasma cell.
