The oncofusion protein FUS-ERG targets key hematopoietic regulators and modulates the all-trans retinoic acid signaling pathway in t(16;21) acute myeloid leukemia

ABSTRACT: Fusion proteins involving the ETS factor ERG have been associated with multiple cancers such as Ewing's sarcoma and prostate cancer. In acute myeloid leukemias harboring t(16;21) another ERG fusion protein is expressed, FUS-ERG. Here, we found that this FUS-ERG oncofusion protein acts in the context of a heptad of proteins (ERG, FLI1, GATA2, LYL1, LNMO2, RUNX1 and TAL1) central to proper expression of genes involved in maintaining a stem cell hematopoietic phenotype. Moreover, in t(16;21) FUS-ERG co-occupies genomic regions bound by the nuclear receptor heterodimer RXR-RARA inhibiting target gene expression and interfering with hematopoietic differentiation. All-Trans Retinoic Acid treatment of t(16;21) cells as well as FUS-ERG knock down alleviate the myeloid differentiation block. Together, the results suggest that FUS-ERG acts as a transcriptional repressor of the retinoic acid signaling pathway.

Oncofusion protein AML1-ETO targets ERG factor binding sites in AML

Project description:ERG has been identified as an essential factor for the function and maintenance of adult hematopoietic stem cells and high ERG expression is a negative prognostic marker for treatment outcome in AML. The molecular function of ERG and its interplay with other factors is however largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that ERG has cell type specific distributions in normal CD34+ myeloid progenitors and in AML cells and identify ERG as a potential pioneering protein for binding of oncofusion protein complexes. In addition, we identify H3 acetylation as the epigenetic mark preferentially associated with ERG binding. This intimate connection between ERG binding and H3 acetylation implies that one of the molecular strategies of the oncofusion proteins PML-RARa and AML1-ETO could involve the targeting of histone deacetylase activities to ETS factor bound hematopoietic regulatory sites. Examination of AML1-ETO, RUNX1, CBFb, HEB, FLI1 and ERG binding sites (ChIP-seq) in leukemic and normal hematopoietic cells, association with chromatin modifications and expression (RNA-seq) analysis of an AML1-ETO expressing cell line (SKNO-1)

AML associated oncofusion proteins PML-RARA, AML1-ETO and CBFB-MYH11 target RUNX/ETS-factor binding sites to modulate H3ac levels and drive leukemogenesis

Project description:Chromosomal translocations are one of the hallmarks of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), often leading to gene fusions and expression of an oncofusion protein. Over recent years it has become clear that most of the AML associated oncofusion proteins molecularly adopt distinct mechanisms for inducing leukemogenesis. Still these unique molecular properties of the chimeric proteins converge and give rise to a common pathogenic molecular mechanism. In the present study we compared genome-wide DNA binding and transcriptome data associated with AML1-ETO, CBFB-MYH11 and PML-RARA oncofusion protein expression (GSE46044, GSE23730, GSE30254 and GSE18886) to identify unique and common features. Our analyses revealed targeting of oncofusion binding sites to RUNX1 and ETS-factor occupied genomic regions. In addition, it revealed highly similar expression of common target genes and specific enrichment of several biological pathways critical for maintenance of AML, suggesting oncofusion proteins deregulate common gene programs despite their distinct binding signatures and mechanisms of action.

A functional liaison between E2F and the aberrant ETS oncogene EWS/FLI1 in Ewing's sarcoma

Project description:Translocations of ETS transcription factors are driver mutations in diverse cancers. We investigated the genomic network of the ETS fusion EWS/FLI1 in Ewing's sarcoma (ESFT) as a model of ETS-driven tumorigenesis. ChIP-Seq and transcriptional analysis identified E2F3 as a principle co-factor of EWSFLI1 defining functionally distinct gene sets. While EWS/FLI1 binding independent of E2F3 predominantly associated with repressed differentiation genes, significant co-localization with E2F3 was discovered at proximal promoters of activated growth-related genes. Thus, EWS/FLI1 promotes oncogenesis by simultaneously perturbing differentiation state and augmenting the expression of genes co-regulated by E2F3. Integration of additional E2F3 and ERG localization data from prostate cancer containing TMPRSS2/ERG verified that the ETS-E2F module is also found in prostate cancer and may be of general relevance to ETS driven cancers.

Expression data from Fus/TLS-null KSL hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells

Project description:Fus is the gene for a member of the FET family of RNA-binding proteins often involved in chromosomal translocations to generate oncogenic fusion genes in human cancers. Fus participates in multiple cellular functions, including RNA processing and transport, transcriptional regulation, and genome integrity. We uncovered its critical role in the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Fus-/- fetal livers developed normally except for a mild reduction in numbers of colony-forming cells compared to the wild type. The proliferation and differentiation of Fus-/- hematopoietic progenitors were normal in vitro. However, the number of colony-forming cells present in long-term cocultures of Fus-/- hematopoietic progenitors and stromal cells was significantly reduced. Fus-/- HSCs had an impaired long-term repopulating capacity and failed to repopulate in tertiary recipient mice. Fus-/- HSCs were highly susceptible to radiation both in vitro and in vivo and showed retardation of radiation-induced DNA damage repair. These findings define Fus as a novel regulator of HSCs and implicate it in stress-resistance and maintenance of the genomic integrity of HSCs. Therefore, it would be of importance to analyze the gene expression profiles of Fus-knockout hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells to understand its role in HSCs. Purified wild-type and Fus–/– KSL cells from BM of recipient mice repopulated with wild-type and Fus–/– fetal liver cells were subjected to RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Data were obtained from dublicate samples.

Ontogenic changes in hematopoietic hierarchy determine pediatric specificity and disease phenotype in fusion oncogene-driven myeloid leukemia - scRNAseq - 2

Project description:Paediatric cancers present specific genetic alterations, however the principles underlying their differences to adult cancers are yet unclear. Poor prognosis paediatric myeloid leukaemia fusion oncogenes represent clinically-relevant models to investigate age-specific tumorigenesis. Here, we established an inducible murine model to show that the ETO2-GLIS2 fusion induces both megakaryoblastic and myeloid leukaemia in a cellular and developmental stage-dependent manner, reproducing different age and phenotype associations observed in patients. The aggressive megakaryoblastic leukemia phenotype developed from haematopoietic stem cells and was associated with massive rewiring of master transcription factors activities (e.g. ERG, GATA and CEBPA). Switching off ETO2-GLIS2 expression in transformed cells restored some long-term haematopoietic stem cell potential. In contrast, targeting downstream progenitors was required for the myeloid phenotype. These data demonstrate that the promiscuity between HSC and megakaryocytic states and the ontogenic changes in the cellular architecture of the hematopoietic tissue controls paediatric and phenotype specificities in myeloid leukaemia.

Co-targeting leukemia-initiating cells and leukemia bulk leads to disease eradication

Project description:Co-targeting the plasticity and heterogeneity of cancer is fundamental to achieve and maintain complete remission (CR). We exploited murine models of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia driven by the promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor (PML-RARα) oncofusion protein, which recruits histone deacetylase (HDAC)-containing complexes. We investigated the effect of two HDAC inhibitors: valproic acid (VPA), and SAHA/vorinostat with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), on the bulk cells and LICs of two APLs with different LIC frequencies. VPA and SAHA selectively target the bulk APL cells and LICs respectively. VPA+SAHA+ATRA combination induced CR in an APL model with lower LIC frequency.
