Project description:In an effort to identify novel drugs targeting fusion-oncogene induced acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we performed high-resolution proteomic analysis. In AML1-ETO (AE) driven AML we uncovered a deregulation of phospholipase C (PLC) signaling. We identified PLCgamma 1 (PLCG1) as a specific target of the AE fusion protein which is induced after AE binding to intergenic regulatory DNA elements. Genetic inactivation of PLCG1 in murine and human AML inhibited AML1-ETO dependent self-renewal programs, leukemic proliferation, and leukemia maintenance in vivo. In contrast, PLCG1 was dispensable for normal hematopoietic stem- and progenitor cell function. These findings are extended to and confirmed by pharmacologic perturbation of Ca++-signaling in AML1-ETO AML cells, indicating that the PLCG1 pathway poses an important therapeutic target for AML1-ETO positive leukemic stem cells.

Project description:AML1-ETO is regarded as an initial event and plays a pivotal role in t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which is a highly heterogeneous disease. DNA methylation patterns are frequently deregulated in t(8;21) AML, though little is known of the mechanisms through which specific gene sets become aberrantly methylated. Here, We found that the promoter DNA methylation signature of t(8;21) AML blasts differs from those of normal CD34+ bone marrow cells and other AMLs. This signature contains 408 differentially methylated genes, many of which are genes involved in cancer pathway and myeloid leukemia. Database systematic survey and differential methylated regions (DMR) analysis were performed. These study demonstrated that a novel hypermethylated zinc finger containing protein-THAP10 is a target gene and can be epigenetic silenced by AML1-ETO at transcriptional level in t(8;21) AML and silencing of THAP10 by AML1-ETO predicts a poor clinical outcome. Our findings also identified that THAP10 is a bona fide target of miR-383 which can be epigenetic activated by AML1-ETO. In this study, we provided evidence that epigenetic silencing of THAP10 is the mechanistic link between AML1-ETO fusion proteins and tyrosine kinase cascades. In addition, we showed that THAP10 is a nuclear protein which inhibits myeloid proliferation inhibition and promotes differentiation both in vitro and in vivo. Altogether, our results revealed an unexpected and important link between fusion protein AML1-ETO, mir-383, THAP10 and tyrosine cascades in t(8;21) AML.

Project description:Approximately 20% of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) cases carry the t(8;21) translocation, which involves the AML1 and ETO genes, and express the resulting AML1/ETO fusion protein that functions as a transcriptional repressor by recruiting NCoR/SMRT/HDAC complexes to DNA. We used microarrays to identify human promoters bound by AML1/ETO in U937 cells. Keywords: ChIP-chip

Project description:Approximately 20% of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) cases carry the t(8;21) translocation, which involves the AML1 and ETO genes, and express the resulting AML1/ETO fusion protein that functions as a transcriptional repressor by recruiting NCoR/SMRT/HDAC complexes to DNA. We used ChIP-chip to identify the determinants of AML1/ETO binding on a contiguous DNA region (chromosome 19). AML1/ETO binding regions are characterized by a specific sequence signature that includes the presence of the consensus binding sites for the AML1 and HEB transcription factors. We therefore assessed the binding patterns of AML1 and HEB on chromosome 19. A specific chromatin modification (tri-methylation of lysine 4 on histone 3 = 3MetK4) was also studied in U937 cells expressing AML1/ETO in order to correlate the identified binding profiles with active transcription sites.

Project description:Somatic rearrangements of transcription factors are common abnormalities in the acute leukemias. With rare exception, however, the resultant protein products have remained largely intractable as pharmacologic targets. One example is AML1-ETO, the most common translocation reported in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To identify AML1-ETO modulators, we screened a small molecule library using a chemical genomic approach. Gene expression signatures were used as surrogates for the expression versus loss of the translocation in AML1-ETO-expressing cells. The top classes of compounds that scored in this screen were corticosteroids and dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors. In addition to modulating the AML1-ETO signature, both classes induced evidence of differentiation, dramatically inhibited cell viability, and ultimately induced apoptosis via on-target activity. Furthermore, AML1-ETO-expressing cell lines were exquisitely sensitive to the effects of corticosteroids on cellular viability compared with nonexpressers. The corticosteroids diminished AML1-ETO protein in AML cells in a proteasome- and glucocorticoid receptor-dependent manner. Moreover, these molecule classes demonstrated synergy in combination with standard AML chemotherapy agents and activity in an orthotopic model of AML1-ETO-positive AML. This work suggests a role for DHFR inhibitors and corticosteroids in treating patients with AML1-ETO-positive disease.

Project description:ERG has been identified as an essential factor for the function and maintenance of adult hematopoietic stem cells and high ERG expression is a negative prognostic marker for treatment outcome in AML. The molecular function of ERG and its interplay with other factors is however largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that ERG has cell type specific distributions in normal CD34+ myeloid progenitors and in AML cells and identify ERG as a potential pioneering protein for binding of oncofusion protein complexes. In addition, we identify H3 acetylation as the epigenetic mark preferentially associated with ERG binding. This intimate connection between ERG binding and H3 acetylation implies that one of the molecular strategies of the oncofusion proteins PML-RARa and AML1-ETO could involve the targeting of histone deacetylase activities to ETS factor bound hematopoietic regulatory sites. Examination of AML1-ETO, RUNX1, CBFb, HEB, FLI1 and ERG binding sites (ChIP-seq) in leukemic and normal hematopoietic cells, association with chromatin modifications and expression (RNA-seq) analysis of an AML1-ETO expressing cell line (SKNO-1)

Project description:The AML1/ETO fusion protein is essential to the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and is well recognized for its dominant-negative effect on the co-existing wild-type protein AML1. However, the involvement of wild-type AML1 in AML1/ETO-driven leukemogenesis remains elusive. Through chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing, computational analysis plus a series of experimental validations, we report here that AML1 is able to orchestrate the expression of AML1/ETO targets regardless of being activated or repressed, via forming a complex with AML1/ETO and via recruiting the cofactor. 4 ChIP-seq assays were used to identify the high confidence binding regions of AML1-ETO and AML1 in t(8;21) AML Kasumi-1 cell lines. The anti-AML1 (N20) antibody targets the N-terminus of AML1 and recognizes both AML1 and AML1/ETO; the anti-AML1 (C19) antibody targets the C-terminus of AML1 and recognizes AML1 but not AML1/ETO; the anti-ETO (C20) antibody targets the C-terminus of ETO and specifically recognizes AML1/ETO. 2 ChIP-seq assays were used to identify the binding regions of AML1 in human macrophage U937 cell lines. And the total input was used as control.
