Project description:Nucleophosmin (NPM1) is a nucleolar protein and one of the most frequently mutated genes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In addition to the commonly detected frameshift mutations in exon12 (NPM1c), previous studies have identified NPM1 gene rearrangements leading to the expression of NPM1-fusion proteins in pediatric AML. However, whether the NPM1-fusions are indeed oncogenic and how the NPM1-fusions cause AML have been largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the subcellular localization and leukemogenic potential of two rare NPM1-fusion proteins, NPM1-MLF1 and NPM1-CCDC28A. NPM1-MLF1 is present in both the nucleus and cytoplasm and occasionally induces AML in the mouse transplantation assay (2/12). NPM1-CCDC28A localizes predominantly to the cytoplasm, immortalizes mouse bone marrow cells in vitro and efficiently (5/6) induces AML in vivo. Mechanistically, both NPM1-fusions bind to the HOX gene cluster and, like NPM1c, cause aberrant upregulation of HOX genes in cooperation with XPO1. The XPO1 inhibitor selinexor suppressed HOX activation and colony formation driven by the NPM1-fusions. Thus, our study provides experimental evidence that both NPM1-MLF1 and NPM1-CCDC28A are oncogenes with functions similar to NPM1c. Inhibition of XPO1 may be a promising strategy for the NPM1-rearranged AML.

Project description:The dysregulation of developmental and stem cell-associated genes is a common phenomenon during cancer development. Around half of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) express high levels of HOXA cluster genes and MEIS1. Most of these AML cases harbor an NPM1 mutation (NPM1c), which encodes for an oncoprotein mislocalized from the nucleolus to the cytoplasm. How NPM1c expression in hematopoietic cells leads to its characteristic gene-expression pattern remains unclear. Here, we show that NPM1c directly binds to specific chromatin targets, which are co-occupied by the histone methyltransferase KMT2A (MLL1). Targeted degradation of NPM1c leads to a rapid decrease in gene expression and loss of RNA polymerase II, as well as activating histone modifications at its targets. We demonstrate that NPM1c directly regulates oncogenic gene expression in collaboration with the MLL1 complex and define the mechanism by which MLL1-Menin small-molecule inhibitors produce clinical responses in patients with NPM1-mutated AML.SignificanceWe uncovered an important functional role of mutant NPM1 as a crucial direct driver of oncogenic gene expression in AML. NPM1c can bind to chromatin and cooperate with the MLL complex, providing the first functional insight into the mechanism of Menin-MLL inhibition in NPM1c leukemias.

Project description:Gene expression in NPM1 wildtype and mutated AML patients with high or low hsa_circ_0075001 expression In acute myeloid leukemia there is growing evidence for splicing pattern deregulation, including differential expression of linear splice isoforms of the commonly mutated gene nucleophosmin (NPM1). In this study, we detect circular RNAs of NPM1 and quantify circRNA hsa_circ_0075001 in a cohort of NPM1 wildtype and mutated acute myeloid leukemia (n=46). Hsa_circ_0075001 expression correlates positively with total NPM1 expression, but is independent of the NPM1 mutational status. High versus low hsa_circ_0075001 expression defines patient subgroups characterized by distinct gene expression patterns, such as lower expression of components of the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway in high hsa_circ_0075001 expression cases. Global evaluation of circRNA expression in sorted healthy hematopoietic controls (n=10) and acute myeloid leukemia (n=10) reveals circRNA transcripts for 47.9% of all highly expressed genes. While circRNA expression correlates globally with parental gene expression, we identify hematopoietic differentiation-associated as well as acute myeloid leukemia subgroup-specific circRNA signatures.

Project description:Mutation in the nucleophosmin (NPM1) gene is frequent in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This mutation has remarkable prognostic significance and correlates with distinct biological features. Our data from the sample-paired microRNA (miRNA) and mRNA microarrays of de novo AML patients strongly indicated that miRNAâmRNA regulation (MMR) may be dynamic and can be modulated by NPM1 mutation. We identified 493 NPM1 mutation-modulated MMR pairs by a systematic framework, in which MMR was attenuated specifically in patients carrying NPM1 mutations. The involved miRNAs/mRNAs were associated with cancer and hematological diseases, as well as known functions of NPM1 mutation including cell death and cellular response to therapeutics. The NPM1 mutation modulation could be validated with three approaches, including two independent cohort datasets, a high-throughput dataset derived from cell line-based experiments, and two in vitro models. Our study provides novel biological insights into the role of NPM1 mutation as a modulator of MMR, based on which novel prognostic markers are derived in AML. Cryopreserved bone marrow cells were obtained from 109 de novo AML patients. Each sample was analyzed with Illumina HumanHT-12 V4.0 expression beadchip.
