Myeloid malignancies with chromosome 5q deletions acquire a dependency on an intrachromosomal NF-κB gene network

ABSTRACT: Chromosome 5q deletions (del(5q)) are common in high-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML); however, the gene regulatory networks that sustain these aggressive diseases are unknown. Reduced miR-146a expression in del(5q) HR-MDS/AML and miR-146a-/- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) results in TRAF6/NF-κΒ activation. Increased survival and proliferation of HSPC from miR-146alow HR-MDS/AML is sustained by a neighboring haploid gene, SQSTM1 (p62), expressed from the intact 5q allele. Overexpression of p62 from the intact allele occurs through NF-κB-dependent feedforward signaling mediated by miR-146a deficiency. p62 is necessary for TRAF6-mediated NF-κB signaling, as disrupting the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex results in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of MDS/AML cells. Thus, del(5q) HR-MDS/AML employs an intrachromosomal gene network involving loss of miR-146a and haploid overexpression of p62 via NF-κB to sustain TRAF6/NF-κB signaling for cell survival and proliferation. Interfering with the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex represents a therapeutic option in miR-146a-deficient and aggressive del(5q) MDS/AML.

Project description:TRAF-interacting protein with forkhead-associated domain B (TIFAB) is a haploinsufficient gene in del(5q) Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Hematopoietic-specific deletion of Tifab results in progressive bone marrow (BM) and blood defects, including skewed hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) proportions, altered myeloid differentiation, and progressive cytopenia. A subset of mice transplanted with Tifab knockout (KO) hematopoietic cells develop a bone marrow failure (BMF)-like disease with neutrophil dysplasia and cytopenia. In competitive transplants, Tifab KO HSPC are out-competed by wild-type (WT) cells, suggesting a cell-intrinsic HSPC defect. Gene expression analysis of Tifab KO HSPC identified dysregulation of immune-related signatures, and hypersensitivity to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) stimulation. TIFAB also forms a complex with TRAF6, a mediator of immune signaling, and reduces TRAF6 protein stability by a lysosome-dependent mechanism. In contrast, TIFAB loss increases TRAF6 protein and the dynamic range of TLR4 signaling in HSPC, contributing to ineffective hematopoiesis. Moreover, combined deletion of TIFAB and miR-146a, two genes associated with del(5q) MDS/AML, results in a cooperative increase in TRAF6 expression and hematopoietic dysfunction in vivo. Re-expression of TIFAB in human del(5q) leukemic cells results in attenuated TLR4 signaling and reduced cell viability. These findings underscore the importance of efficient regulation of innate immune/TRAF6 signaling within HSPC by TIFAB, and its cooperation with miR-146a as it relates to the pathogenesis of hematopoietic malignancies, such as del(5q) MDS/AML. We performed an expression analysis on sorted lineage-Sca1+cKit+ (LSK) isolated from bone marrow (BM) of 3 month old mice transplanted with Tifab+/+ (WT) or Tifab-/- (KO) BM cells (n = 3 mice/group). We selected this time point to capture the gene expression profile of Tifab-/- LSK after engraftment but prior to overt hematopoietic failure. Total RNA was extracted, purified, reverse transcribed, labeled, and hybridized onto the GeneChip MoGene 2.0 ST Array (Affymetrix). Comparison comprises mRNA expression profile of Tifab+/+ LSK vs. Tifab-/- LSK.
