Gfi1b - A key player in genesis and maintenance of AML and MDS [expression microarray]

ABSTRACT: Differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is regulated by a concert of different transcription factors (TFs). A disturbed function of TFs can be the basis of (pre)malignancies such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Growth Factor Independence 1b (Gfi1b) is a repressing TF with a key role in quiescence of HSCs and emergence and maturation of erythrocytes and platelets. Here, we show that low expression of GFI1B in blast cells is associated with inferior prognosis of MDS and AML patients. Using mouse models with either reduced expression or conditional deletion of Gfi1b, crossed with a mouse model reflecting human MDS or AML, we demonstrate that AML development was accelerated with heterozygous loss of Gfi1b, and latency was further decreased when Gfi1b was conditionally deleted. Loss of Gfi1b significantly enhanced stemness of leukemic cells with upregulation of genes fundamentally involved in leukemia development. On a molecular level, we found that loss of Gfi1b not only increased the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but also induced gene expression changes of key AML pathways such as the p38/AKT pathway. These results demonstrate that Gfi1b functions as an oncosuppressor in MDS/AML development. We used microarrays to detail the effect of loss of Gfi1b expression on key AML-pathways in a mouse model system

RNA-Seq Analysis of Gfi1b KO Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Project description:The zinc finger protein and SNAG domain transcription factor Gfi1b is highly expressed in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and in megakaryocytes (MKs). Deletion of Gfi1b in mice leads to a drastic expansion of both cell types, suggesting that Gfi1b controls their proliferation. Here we present evidence that Gfi1b exerts this control by modulating the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. We can show that Gfi1b binds to beta-catenin and is part of a larger complex that contains β-catenin co-factors. Gfi1b activates beta-catenin/TCF mediated transcription and is required for the activity of beta-catenin target gene promoter driven reporter genes in vivo. This is dependent of the ability of Gfi1b to recruit the histone modifying enzyme lysine demethylase 1 (LSD1) to β-catenin containing complexes. Moreover, LSD1 enhances the Gfi1b-mediated activation of beta-catenin/TCF dependent transcription. Both Gfi1b deficient HSCs and MKs show de-regulation of expression of many sets on Wnt/β-catenin target genes and Gfi1b and β-catenin co-occupy the promoters of many common target genes. Finally, activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in Gfi1b deficient HSCs and MKs significantly reduces their expansion, which confirms that Gfi1b is a critical factor controlling the cellularity of HSCs and MKs and exerts this function by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in these cells.

ChIP-Seq analysis for GFI1B, Beta-Catenin, LSD1 and histone marks in response to Wnt treatment

Project description:Gfi1b is a DNA binding transcriptional repressor highly expressed in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and megakaryocytes (MKs). Gfi1b deficiency leads to the expansion of both cell types and abrogates the ability of MKs to respond to integrin substrates with spreading and movement. Here we show that Gfi1b is present in complexes with ²-catenin and its co-factors Pontin52, CHD8, TLE3 and CtBP1 and can regulate Wnt/²-catenin dependent gene expression. In reporter assays, Gfi1b can activate TCF-dependent transcription and this activation is enhanced upon treatment with Wnt3a. This requires the interaction between Gfi1b and lysine demethylase 1 (LSD1), but is independent of the ability of Gfi1b to bind DNA. This suggests that a tripartite ²-catenin/Gfi1b/LSD1 complex exists that regulates Wnt/²-catenin target genes. Consistently, expression of many canonical Wnt/²-catenin target genes is deregulated in Gfi1b-deficient cells and many of these target genes are co-occupied by Gfi1b, ²-catenin and LSD1 at promoter sites. When Gfi1b deficient cells were treated with Wnt3a, their normal cellularity was restored and Gfi1b-deficient MKs regained their ability to spread on integrin substrates. This suggests that Gfi1b controls both the cellularity and functional integrity of HSCs and MKs by regulating Wnt/²-catenin signaling pathway.

Effect of loss of Gfi1b on hematopietic stem cells

Project description:Using Gfi1b conditional mice, deletion of gfi1b in the hematopietic system was induced by injecting MxCre tg Gfi1bfl/fl mice with pIpC. 30 days after injection, Cd150 pos, Cd 48 neg, Lin neg Sca and c-kit pos stem cells were sortrted from Gfi1bfl/fl and Mxcre tg Gfi1bfl/fl mice and analysed. We used the mouse Affymetrix Gene ST Array. The study should determine whether loss of Gfi1 alters the gene expression pattern in the hematopietic stem cells.
