Project description:Activating signaling mutations are common in acute leukemia with KMT2A (previously MLL) rearrangements. Herein, we show that co-expression of FLT3-N676K and KMT2A-MLLT3 in human CD34+ cord blood cells primarily cause acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and rarely acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in immunodeficient mice. By contrast, expression of KMT2A-MLLT3 alone cause ALL, double-positive leukemia (DPL, expressing both CD33 and CD19), or bilineal leukemia (BLL, comprised of distinct myeloid and lymphoid leukemia cells), and rarely AML. Further, AML could only be serially propagated with maintained immunophenotype in secondary recipients when cells co-expressed KMT2A-MLLT3 and FLT3-N676K. Consistent with the idea that activated signaling would allow myeloid cells to engraft and maintain their self-renewal capacity, in a secondary recipient, a de novo KRAS-G13D was identified in myeloid cells previously expressing only KMT2A-MLLT3. Gene expression profiling revealed that KMT2A-MLLT3 DPL had a highly similar gene expression profile to ALL, with both expressing key lymphoid transcription factors and ALL cell surface markers, in line with the DPL cells being ALL cells with aberrant expression of CD33. Taken together, our results highlight the need for constitutive active signaling mutations for driving myeloid leukemia in a human xenograft model of KMT2A-R acute leukemia.

Project description:Activating mutations in kinase/PI3K/RAS signaling pathways are common in acute leukemia with KMT2A rearrangements (KMT2A-R). These mutations are often subclonal and their biological impact remain unclear. Using a retroviral acute myeloid leukemia model, we demonstrate that NRASG12D, FLT3ITD, and FLT3N676K accelerates KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia onset. Importantly, also the presence of subclonal FLT3N676K in KMT2A-R leukemic cells shorten disease latency, possibly by providing stimulatory factors such as Mif. Acquired de novo mutations in Braf, Cbl, Kras, and Ptpn11 were identified in KMT2A-MLLT3 driven leukemia and favored clonal expansion. KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia with an activating mutation enforce Myc- and Myb transcriptional modules, whereas KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemias lacking activating mutations displayed upregulation of signal transduction pathways. Our results provide new insight into the biology of KMT2A-R leukemia and highlights the importance of activated signaling as a contributing driver in this disease.

Project description:Activating FLT3 and RAS mutations are common in KMT2A-rearrangement (KMT2A-r) leukemia, but their functions in remodeling the chromatin accessibility is unknow. Using a retroviral acute myeloid leukemia (AML) mouse model driven by KMT2A::MLLT3, we show that FLT3/ITD, FLT3/N676K, and NRAS/G12D rewired the chromatin accessibility landscape and associated transcriptional networks. FLT3/N676K and NRAS/G12D mutations resulted in similar networks which were distinct from those mediated by FLT3/ITD. Motif analysis revealed that the AP-1 family transcription factors had a role in KMT2A::MLLT3 leukemia with FLT3/N676K and NRAS/G12D, whereas RUNX1/2 and Stat5a/Stat5b were active in the presence of FLT3/ITD. Further, transcriptional programs related with stemness, activation of T-cells and negative regulation of NK-cells were activated in the presence of NRAS/G12D and FLT3/N676K. Taken together, activating mutations established mutation-specific changes in the epigenetic landscape that led to changes in the transcriptional programs driven by specific transcription factors.

Project description:The KMT2A::MLLT3 fusion protein causes acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by activating the oncogenic transcription factor MECOM. However, MECOM expression occurs only in half of the cases. By integrating gene expression and enhancer activity data from patient cells, we identified neuronal homeobox transcription factor HMX3 as cell fate determining factor in MECOM-negative KMT2A::MLLT3 AML. HMX3 expression associated with younger age and KMT2A-rearranged leukemia in large AML cohorts (p<0.002). It was absent in other major genetic risk groups and healthy blood cells. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that HMX3 drives cancer-associated E2F, MYC, and cell cycle gene programs. Ectopic HMX3 expression completely inhibited monocytic but not granulocytic colony formation of healthy CD34+ cord blood cells. Its silencing in KMT2A::MLLT3 AML cell lines and patient cells resulted in cell cycle arrest, monocytic differentiation, and apoptosis. Thus, HMX3 is a leukemia-specific vulnerability that enhances proliferation and blocks differentiation of MECOM-negative KMT2A::MLLT3 leukemia.

Project description:KMT2A-MLLT3, a fusion protein formed by the t(9;11) translocation in acute myeloid leukemia, is an epigenetic transcription factor that is known to regulate a unique leukemic gene expression profile. We show that rearranged during transfection (RET) proto-oncogene is highly overexpressed in the KMT2A-MLLT3 subgroup. In addition to biochemical studies, the RNA-seq and ATAC seq analyses have been performed in KMT2A-MLLT3 positive MOLM-13 AML cell line, compared to the umbilical cord blood-driven CD34+ hematopoietic stem progenitor cells.

Project description:Activating signaling mutations are common in acute leukemia with KMT2A (previously MLL) rearrangements (KMT2A-R). These mutations are often subclonal and their biological impact remains unclear. Using a retroviral acute myeloid mouse leukemia model, we demonstrate that FLT3ITD, FLT3N676K, and NRAS G12D accelerate KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia onset. Subclonal FLT3N676K mutations also accelerate disease, possibly by providing stimulatory factors such as Mif. Acquired de novo mutations in Braf, Cbl, Kras, and Ptpn11 were identified in KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia cells and favored clonal expansion. During clonal evolution, serial genetic changes at the KrasG12D locus was observed, consistent with a strong selective advantage of additional KrasG12D. KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemias with signaling mutations enforced Myc- and Myb transcriptional modules. Our results provide new insight into the biology of KMT2A-R leukemia with subclonal signaling mutations and highlights the importance of activated signaling as a contributing driver in this disease.

Project description:We transduced two individual murine KMT2A-MLLT3 AML samples with DOT1L and three days after sorting for DOT1L+ cells collected for RNA-seq MLL-rearranged leukemias have been previously shown to be dependent on the presence of histone 3 lysine 79 (H3K79) dimethylation on the genomic targets of the fusion, and an inhibitor of the H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L is in clinical trials for MLL-rearranged leukemia. In order to ask what biologic effects overexpression of DOT1L would have on the H3K79me2 ChIP-Seq profiles and MLL-fusion target gene expression, murine leukemias generated by transplanting MSCV-MLL-AF9-GFP transduced lin- cKit+ Sca1+ bone marrow cells were subjected to overexpression of DOT1L. Cells were sorted into low (low level of DOT1L overexpression), high (high level of DOT1L overexpression) and bulk (entire population) samples, and subjected to H3K79me2 ChIP-Seq (using a drosophila spike in for normalization) and RNA-Seq analysis 3 days after transduction.
