Project description:Transcriptomic profiling was performed on six cell lines derived from infants with KMT2A-rearranged ALL following treatment with two hypomethylating drugs (azacitidine and decitabine) administered at low doses for 72 hours in vitro. We identified changes in gene expression following treatment with hypomethylating agents, with decitabine exerting a greater effect than azacitidine.

Project description:Genome-wide methylation profiling was performed on six cell lines derived from infants with KMT2A-rearranged ALL following treatment with three hypomethylating drugs (azacitidine, decitabine and zebularine) administered at low doses for 72 hours in vitro. We identified drug-specific and common differentially methylated regions and validated differentially expressed genes located within such regions, indicating commonalities in pathways targeted by azacitidine and decitabine in KMT2A-rearranged infant ALL. Of the three drugs, the most significant degree of hypomethylation was induced by decitabine followed by azacitidine, whereas zebularine did not exert a significant hypomethylating effect.

Project description:The KMT2A rearranged B lineage infant ALL cell line SEM was treated with the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib followed by a multiplexed mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis at multiple time points (0, 6, 12, 16, and 20 hours) over 20 hours to further understand the cellular response of these cells to proteasome inhibition.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease with poor outcome but patients harbouring certain chromosomal rearrangements or complex karyotypes have particularly adverse prognosis. For these patients, targeted therapies have not yet made a significant clinical impact. To understand the molecular landscape of poor risk AML we profiled 55 poor risk AML patients using a multiomics approach that included transcriptomics (n=39), proteomics (n=55), phosphoproteomics (n=55) and an ex vivo drug sensitivity screening (482 compounds tested in at least 30 patients). We identified a phosphoproteomics signature that define two biologically distinct groups of KMT2A rearranged leukaemia, which we term MLLGA and MLLGB. MLLGA presented increased DOT1L phosphorylation, HOXA gene expression, CDK1 activity and phosphorylation of proteins involved in RNA metabolism, replication and DNA damage when compared to MLLGB and no KMT2A rearranged samples. MLLGA was particularly sensitive to 15 compounds including genotoxic drugs and inhibitors of mitotic kinases and IMPDH relative to other cases. The expression of IMPDH2 and multiple nucleolar proteins was higher in MLLGA and correlated with the response to IMPDH inhibition in KMT2A rearranged leukaemia, suggesting a role of the nucleolar activity in sensitivity to IMPDH inhibition. In summary, our multilayer molecular profiling of poor risk AML matched to the response to hundreds of compounds identified a phosphoproteomics signature that define two biologically and phenotypically distinct groups of KMT2A rearranged leukaemia. These data provide a rationale for the development of specific therapies for KMT2A subgroups characterised by the MLLGA phosphoproteomics signature identified in this study.

Project description:Infants with KMT2A-rearranged B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have a dismal prognosis. Survival outcomes have remained static in recent decades despite treatment intensification and novel therapies are urgently required. KMT2A-rearranged infant ALL cells are characterized by an abundance of promoter hypermethylation and exhibit high BCL-2 expression, highlighting potential for therapeutic targeting. Here, we show that hypomethylating agents exhibit in vitro additivity when combined with most conventional chemotherapeutic agents. However, in a subset of samples an antagonistic effect was seen between several agents. This was most evident when hypomethylating agents were combined with methotrexate, with upregulation of ATP-binding cassette transporters identified as a potential mechanism. Single agent treatment with azacitidine and decitabine significantly prolonged in vivo survival in KMT2A-rearranged infant ALL xenografts. Treatment of KMT2A-rearranged infant ALL cell lines with azacitidine and decitabine led to differential genome-wide DNA methylation, changes in gene expression and thermal proteome profiling revealed the target protein-binding landscape of these agents. The selective BCL-2 inhibitor, venetoclax, exhibited in vitro additivity in combination with hypomethylating or conventional chemotherapeutic agents. The addition of venetoclax to azacitidine resulted in a significant in vivo survival advantage indicating the therapeutic potential of this combination to improve outcome for infants with KMT2A-rearranged ALL.

Project description:KMT2A-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is an aggressive type of leukemia which represents the most common form diagnosed in infancy. Oncogenic KMT2A-fusion proteins recruit histone methyltransferase DOT1L which leads to misplaced H3K79 methylation inducing an abnormal transcriptomic landscape that favors leukemia development. Hence, inhibition of DOT1L represents an attractive therapeutic strategy. Unfortunately, the first-in-class DOT1L inhibitor pinometostat resulted in the development of resistance. To understand this resistance we established acquired resistance to DOT1L inhibition in a pediatric KMT2A::AFF1+ B-ALL cell line model that stably became ~35-fold more resistant to pinometostat. Interestingly, while becoming almost completely independent of DOT1L-mediated H3K79 methylation, these cells remained fully dependent on the physical presence of DOT1L, HOXA9, as well as the KMT2A::AFF1 fusion protein. Further characterization of these cells using RNA-, ChIP-, and ATAC-sequencing analyses revealed that acquired resistance to DOT1L inhibition leads to a selective loss of KMT2A-fusion driven epigenetic regulation and expression of genes such as PROM1 (encoding the hematopoietic/leukemia stem cell marker CD133) and its enhancer TAPT1, as well as other putative KMT2A::AFF1 target genes such as RUNX2, PRSS12, ZC3H12, and GNAQ. In contrast, the levels of H3K79me2 and expression of other KMT2A::AFF1 target genes, including HOXA9, MEIS1, and CDK6 remained unaffected. Concomitantly, pinometostat-resistant KMT2A::AFF1+ B-ALL cells showed upregulation of genes associated with a myeloid immunophenotype, including CD33, LILRB4/CD85k, MPEG1, CCL5, and LIMK1. Taken together, we here present a valuable model to study the adaptive potential of KMT2A-rearranged ALL upon losing dependency on one of its main oncogenic properties.
