Project description:RNAseq characterization of gene expression changes 72 hours after genomic excision of Cebpa in murine hematopoietic progenitors from Cebpaf/f;CreER mice transformed by Hoxa9/Meis1. In the presence of tamoxifen (4OHT), Cre-ER localizes to the nucleus of cells allowing for excision of Cebpa and loss of C/EBPα protein levels. Loss of C/EBPα leads to a decrease in cellular proliferation. Examination of gene expression by RNAseq in two conditions in biological replicates.

Project description:Identification of the genome-wide binding sites of Hoxa9 and C/EBPα in a murine myeloblastic cell line transformed by Hoxa9/Meis1. Over 50% of Hoxa9 binding sites are co-bound by C/EBPα, providing mechanistic insight into the requirement of C/EBPα for Hoxa9-mediated leukemogenesis. Additionally, genome-wide occupancy of H3K4 monomethylation and H3K27 trimethylation provide additional information on the functionality of Hoxa9/C/EBPα cobound loci. Examination of two transcription factor binding sites and two histone modifications in a transformed cell line.

Project description:In this study, we use a conditional mouse model for Cebpa to investigate the significance of C/EBPα in HSCs. The frequency of HSCs is unaltered following deletion of C/EBPα, however, upon serial transplantations of either full BM or purified HSCs, the stem cells and stem cell activity is lost. This is not due to increased proliferation, but rather caused by a shift from quiescence to apoptosis with a resultant exhaustion of the stem cell pool. We identify direct C/EBPα target genes by combining genome-wide C/EBPα ChIP-seq analysis in stem and progenitor cells with gene expression data from HSC with and without C/EBPα. Furthermore, we explore the impact of C/EBPα on active and repressive histone modifications by doing functional genome-wide ChIP-seq analysis of H3K4Me3 and H3K27Me3 in stem and progenitor cells with and without C/EBPα. We have sorted HSCs from 3 Cebpaflox/flox and 4 Cebpaflox/flox;Mx1Cre mice 18 days after pIC injection.

Project description:Characterization of gene expression changes 72 hours after withdrawal of tamoxifen in murine hematopoietic progenitors transformed by Hoxa9-ER/Meis1 using RNAseq. In the presence of tamoxifen (4OHT), Hoxa9-ER localizes to the nucleus of cells allowing for transformation, while withdrawal of 4OHT (culture in EtOH) leads to loss of nuclear Hoxa9-ER. Loss of Hoxa9-ER leads to a decrease in cellular proliferation and differentiation along the myeloid lineage.

Project description:Mutations altering the normal function of C/EBPα are frequent in acute myeloid leukaemia with normal karyotype. MYB, a cooperating partner of C/EBPα, is likewise heavily implicated in AML. Here we investigate how the relative requirement for the transcription factor MYB in AML relates to the particular combinations of wild type and mutated alleles of CEBPA. Through knockdown of Myb in murine cell lines modelling the spectrum of CEBPA mutations we show that the consequences of reduced Myb depend on the mutational status of Cebpa. Importantly, Myb knockdown fails to override the block in myeloid differentiation in cells with biallelic N-terminal C/EBPα mutations, demonstrating for the first time that the dependency on Myb observed in AML is much lower in leukaemia with this combination of mutations. By comparing genome-wide analyses of gene expression following Myb knockdown and ChIP-seq data for the binding of C/EBPα isoforms, we provide evidence for a functional cooperation between C/EBPα and Myb in the maintenance of the leukaemia state. This co-dependency breaks down when both alleles of CEBPA harbour N-terminal mutations, as a subset of C/EBPα-regulated genes only bind the short p30 C/EBPα isoform and, unlike other C/EBPα regulated genes, do so without a requirement for Myb.

Project description:The gene encoding the transcription factor C/EBPα is mutated in 10-15% of all patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML). N-terminal CEBPA mutations cause selective ablation of full-length C/EBPα without affecting the expression of a shorter oncogenic isoform, termed p30. The mechanistic basis of p30-induced leukemogenesis is not well understood. Here, we show that the SET/MLL histone methyltransferase complex represents a critical actionable vulnerability in CEBPA-mutated AML. The oncogenic C/EBPα p30 isoform and MLL show global co-localization on chromatin and core SET/MLL complex components exhibit robust physical interaction with p30. We also show that C/EBPα p30-expressing cells require the expression of an intact MLL protein, as targeted CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis results in proliferation arrest and myeloid differentiation. In line with this, CEBPA-mutated hematopoietic progenitor cells are hypersensitive to pharmacological inhibition of the SET/MLL complex. SET/MLL complex inhibition impairs proliferation, induces cell cycle arrest and causes apoptosis in mouse and human AML cells with CEBPA mutations. Global analysis of gene expression changes shows that inhibitor treatment restores myeloid differentiation potential in CEBPA-mutated cells. Finally, we identify the transcription factor GATA2 as a direct critical target of the cooperative gene regulation between p30 and MLL in CEBPA-mutated AML. Taken together, we show that C/EBPα p30 requires the SET/MLL complex to regulate oncogenic gene expression and that CEBPA-mutated AML is hypersensitive to perturbation of the SET/MLL complex. These findings expand our understanding of CEBPA-mutated AML and identify the SET/MLL complex as a potential therapeutic target in this disease.

Project description:The transcription factor Meis1 drives myeloid leukemogenesis in the context of Hox gene overexpression but is currently considered undruggable. We therefore investigated whether myeloid progenitor cells transformed by Hoxa9 and Meis1 become addicted to targetable signaling pathways. A comprehensive (phospho)proteomic analysis revealed that Meis1 increased Syk protein expression and activity. Syk upregulation occurs through a Meis1-dependent feed-forward loop. By dissecting this loop, we show that Syk is a direct target of miR-146a, whose expression is indirectly regulated by Meis1 through the transcription factor PU.1. In the context of Hoxa9 overexpression, Syk induces Meis1, recapitulating several leukemogenic features of Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia. Finally, we show that Syk inhibition disrupts the identified regulatory loop, prolonging survival of mice with Hoxa9/Meis1-driven leukemia.
