Super-enhancer reprogramming drives a B cell-epithelial transition and high-risk leukemia

ABSTRACT: IKAROS is required for the differentiation of highly proliferative pre-B cell precursors and loss-of-IKAROS function indicates poor prognosis in precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Here we show that IKAROS regulates this developmental stage by positive and negative regulation of super-enhancers with distinct lineage affiliation. IKAROS together with B cell master regulators, such as PAX5, EBF1 and IRF4, defines super-enhancers at pre-B cell differentiation genes and is required for a highly permissive chromatin environment, a function that cannot be compensated for by the other transcription factors. IKAROS, is also highly enriched at inactive enhancers of genes normally expressed in stem-epithelial cells. Upon IKAROS loss, expression of pre-B cell differentiation genes is attenuated, while a group of extra-lineage transcription factors, directly repressed by IKAROS, and dependent on EBF1 re-localization at their enhancers, are induced. LHX2, LMO2 and TEAD-YAP1 together with other native B cell transcription regulators induce a feed-forward transcriptional loop based on their direct cooperation within a de novo super-enhancer network normally kept separate by IKAROS. Induction of de novo super-enhancers antagonizes Polycomb repression and superimposes aberrant stem-epithelial cell properties in a B cell precursor. This dual mechanism of IKAROS regulation promotes differentiation while safeguarding against a hybrid stem-epithelial-B cell phenotype that underlies high-risk B-ALL.

STAT5 antagonism of B cell enhancer networks drives leukemia and poor patient surviva

Project description:The transcription factor STAT5 plays a critical role in B cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). How STAT5 mediates this effect is unclear. Here we demonstrate that STAT5 activation cooperates with defects in the pre-BCR signaling components Blnk, Btk, Prkcb, Nfkb1, and Ikzf1 to initiate B-ALL. STAT5 antagonizes NFkB and IKAROS by opposing regulation of shared target genes. STAT5 binding was enriched at super-enhancers, which were associated with an opposing network of transcription factors, including PAX5, EBF1, PU.1, IRF4, and IKAROS. Patients with high ratios of active STAT5 to NFκB or IKAROS have more aggressive disease. Our studies illustrate that an imbalance of two opposing transcriptional programs drive B-ALL, and suggest that restoring the balance of these pathways may inhibit B-ALL.

Ikaros tumor suppression and epigenetic regulation [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Ikaros encodes a transcription factor that functions as a tumor suppressor in T-ALL. The mechanisms through which Ikaros regulates gene expression and cellular proliferation in T-ALL are unknown. Re-introduction of Ikaros into Ikaros-null T-ALL cells results in cessation of cellular proliferation and induction of T-cell differentiation. We performed dynamic global epigenomic and gene expression analyses to determine the role of Ikaros in tumor suppression during this process. Our results identified novel Ikaros functions in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression: Ikaros directly regulates de novo formation and depletion of enhancers, as well as de novo formation of active enhancers and activation of poised enhancers; Ikaros directly induces the formation of super-enhancers; and Ikaros demonstrates pioneering activity by directly regulating chromatin accessibility. Dynamic analyses demonstrate the long-lasting effect of Ikaros DNA binding on enhancer activation, de novo formation of enhancers and super-enhancers, and chromatin accessibility. Ikaros induces profound, global re-distribution of HDAC1 via recruitment of HDAC1 to promoter and enhancer regions of different target genes. Expression analysis identified a large number of novel signaling pathways that are directly regulated by Ikaros and Ikaros-induced enhancers, and that are responsible for the cessation of proliferation and induction of T-cell differentiation in T-ALL cells.

Ikaros mutation confers integrin-dependent pre-B cell survival and progression to acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Project description:Deletion of the Ikaros DNA-binding domain generates dominant-negative isoforms that interfere with Ikaros family activity and correlate with poor prognosis in human precursor B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALL). Here, we show that conditional inactivation of the Ikaros DNA binding domain in early pre-B cells arrests their differentiation at a stage where integrin-dependent niche adhesion augments mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling, proliferation, and self-renewal, and attenuates pre-B cell receptor signaling and differentiation. Transplantation of polyclonal Ikzf1 mutant pre-B cells results in long-latency oligoclonal pre-B-ALL, demonstrating that loss of Ikaros contributes to multistep B-leukemogenesis. These results explain how normal pre-B cells transit from a highly proliferative and stromal-dependent to a stromal-independent phase where differentiation is enabled, providing potential therapeutic strategies for IKZF1 mutant B-ALL. One of the analyses described in this manuscript is the differential gene expression of large preB cells sorted from the bone marrow of WT and IKDN mice. The RNASeq method and Deseq analysis algorithm were employed

Chromatin restriction by the nucleosome remodeler Mi-2β and functional interplay with lineage-specific transcription regulators controls B cell differentiation

Project description:Coordinated induction but also repression of genes is key to normal differentiation. Although the role of lineage-specific transcription regulators has been extensively studied, their functional integration with chromatin remodelers, one of the key enzymatic machineries that control chromatin accessibility, remains ill-defined. Here we investigate the role of Mi-2b, a SNF-2-like nucleosome remodeler and key component of the Nucleosome Remodeling Deacetylase (NuRD) complex in early B cells. Inactivation of Mi-2b arrested differentiation at the large pre-B cell stage and caused de-repression of cell adhesion and cell migration signaling factors by increasing chromatin access at poised enhancers and chromosome architectural elements. Mi-2b also supported IL-7R signaling, survival and proliferation by repressing negative effectors of this pathway. Importantly, over-expression of Bcl2, a mitochondrial pro-survival factor and target of IL-7R signaling, partly rescued the differentiation block caused by Mi-2b loss. Mi-2b stably associated with chromatin sites that harbor binding motifs for IKAROS and EBF1 and physically associated with these transcription factors both on and off chromatin. Notably, Mi-2b shared loss-of-function cellular and molecular phenotypes with IKAROS and EBF1 albeit in a distinct fashion. Thus the nucleosome remodeler Mi-2b promotes pre-B cell differentiation by providing repression capabilities to distinct lineage-specific transcription factor-based regulatory networks.

Transcriptional function of E2A, Ebf1, Pax5, Ikaros and Aiolos analyzed by in vivo acute protein degradation in early B cell development [RNA-seq]

Project description:Early B-lymphopoiesis depends on E2A, Ebf1, Pax5 and Ikaros family members. Here, we used acute protein degradation in vivo to identify direct target genes of these transcription factors in pro-B, small pre-B and immature B-cells. E2A, Ebf1 and Pax5 predominantly function as transcriptional activators by inducing open chromatin at their target genes, have largely unique functions and maintain cell viability in vivo by activating Bcl2l1. Ikaros and Aiolos cooperatively control early B-cell development and act as dedicated repressors to suppress open chromatin at their target genes. The surrogate light-chain genes Igll1 and Vpreb1 are directly activated by Ebf1 and Pax5 in pro-B cells and directly repressed by Ikaros and Aiolos in small pre-B cells. Pax5 and E2A contribute to V(D)J recombination by activating Rag1, Rag2, Dntt, Irf4 and Irf8. Like Pax5, Ebf1 also represses the cohesin-release factor gene Wapl to mediate prolonged loop extrusion across the Igh locus. In summary, in vivo protein degradation has provided unprecedented insight into the control of early B-lymphopoiesis by five transcription factors.
