Project description:Purpose: To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying NPM1c-mediated tumorigenesis by comparing the transcriptome of de novo generated bulk human leukemic cells and leukemic stem cells

Project description:Development of targeted cancer therapy requires a thorough understanding of mechanisms of tumorigenesis as well as mechanisms of action of therapeutics. This is challenging because by the time patients are diagnosed with cancer, early events of tumorigenesis have already taken place. Similarly, development of cancer immunotherapies is hampered by a lack of appropriate small animal models with autologous human tumor and immune system. In this article, we report the development of a mouse model of human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with autologous immune system for studying early events of human leukemogenesis and testing the efficacy of immunotherapeutics. To develop such a model, human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) are transduced with lentiviruses expressing a mutated form of nucleophosmin (NPM1), referred to as NPM1c. Following engraftment into immunodeficient mice, transduced HSPCs give rise to human myeloid leukemia, whereas untransduced HSPCs give rise to human immune cells in the same mice. The de novo AML, with CD123+ leukemic stem or initiating cells (LSC), resembles NPM1c+ AML from patients. Transcriptional analysis of LSC and leukemic cells confirms similarity of the de novo leukemia generated in mice with patient leukemia and suggests Myc as a co-operating factor in NPM1c-driven leukemogenesis. We show that a bispecific conjugate that binds both CD3 and CD123 eliminates CD123+ LSCs in a T cell-dependent manner both in vivo and in vitro. These results demonstrate the utility of the NPM1c+ AML model with an autologous immune system for studying early events of human leukemogenesis and for evaluating efficacy and mechanism of immunotherapeutics.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis often involves a mutation in the NPM1 nucleolar chaperone, but the bases for its transforming properties and association with favorable outcome remain incompletely understood. Here we demonstrate that an oncogenic mutant form of NPM1 (NPM1c) hampers formation of PML nuclear bodies (NBs), key senescence effectors, and impairs mitochondrial function to drive an integrated stress response. Actinomycin D (ActD), an antibiotic with unambiguous clinical efficacy in relapsed/refractory NPM1c-AMLs, preferentially targets these primed mitochondria, activating cGAS signaling and boosting ROS production. The later restores PML NB formation to drive senescence of NPM1c-AMLs cells. Dual targeting of mitochondria by Venetoclax and ActD synergized for AML elimination. Our studies reveal a central role of mitochondria downstream of NPM1c and implicate a mitochondrial/ROS/PML/TP53 senescence pathway as a key effector of ActD-based, and possibly others, chemotherapies.

Project description:Nucleophosmin (NPM1) is a ubiquitously expressed nucleolar protein with a wide range of functions including ribosome biogenesis, mRNA processing, and maintenance of genomic stability1-4. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the terminal exon of NPM1 is often mutated (~30% of adult AMLs), resulting in the change of the nucleolar localization signal into a nuclear export signal and a shift of the protein to the cytoplasm (NPM1c)2,3,5. AMLs carrying this mutation have aberrant expression of the HOXA genes, whose overexpression leads to leukemogenic transformation6-8. Recently, it was shown that depletion or re-localization of the NPM1c protein into the nucleus causes downregulation of the HOXA genes, leading to the speculation that NPM1c directly regulates their transcription9-11. Here, we show that NPM1c binds to a subset of active gene promoters marked with high levels of H3K27ac in NPM1c leukemia cell lines and primary leukemia blasts, including well-known leukemia-driving genes such as posterior HOXA, HOXB, and MEIS1/PBX3 genes as well as novel targets IRX5 and NKX2-3. The binding of NPM1c on chromatin sustains active transcription of key target genes by maintaining high local-concentration of transcriptional complexes, including the Super Elongation Complex (SEC) and Menin/MLL1. NPM1c also maintains the active chromatin landscape by inhibiting the activity of histone deacetylases (HDACs). Depletion of NPM1c causes histone deacetylation and the silencing of key leukemic genes, leading to cell differentiation and growth arrest. The export protein XPO1 plays a key role by tethering NPM1c onto chromatin. The combination of XPO1 inhibitors (e.g., Selinexor and Eltanexor) with the Menin inhibitor MI-3454 has a synergistic effect on inducing differentiation in both NPM1-mutated leukemia cell lines and PDX model. Together, these findings reveal the neomorphic function of NPM1c as transactivator for leukemic gene expression and open up potential avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Project description:Recent evidence suggests that inhibition of BET epigenetic readers may have clinical utility in hematological malignancies. We demonstrate the efficacy of the BET inhibitor I-BET151 across a variety of AML subtypes, and demonstrate that a common core transcriptional program, which is HOX gene-independent, is downregulated in AML subtypes sensitive to I-BET treatment. Focusing on the most common mutation in AML, we present evidence to suggest that wildtype NPM1 has an inhibitory influence on BRD4, which is relieved upon NPM1c mutation and cytosplasmic dislocation. NPM1c mutation allows upregulation of the core transcriptional program facilitating leukemia development, and this program is abrogated by I-BET therapy. Finally, we demonstrate the efficacy of I-BET151 in human cell lines, a unique murine model and in primary patient samples of NPM1c AML. This submission only includes samples from the human cell line.
