In this review, we summarize the most frequent genetic lesions found in myeloid leukaemia of Down syndrome, a rare paediatric leukaemia specific to individuals with trisomy 21. The evolution of this disease follows a well-defined sequence of events and represents a unique model to understand how the ordered acquisition of mutations drives malignancy. Abstract: Children with Down syndrome (DS) are particularly prone to haematopoietic disorders. Paediatric myeloid malignancies in DS occur at an unusually high frequency and generally follow a well-defined stepwise clinical evolution. First, the acquisition of mutations in the GATA1 transcription factor gives rise to a transient myeloproliferative disorder (TMD) in DS newborns. While this condition spontaneously resolves in most cases, some clones can acquire additional mutations, which trigger myeloid leukaemia of Down syndrome (ML-DS). These secondary mutations are predominantly found in chromatin and epigenetic regulators—such as cohesin, CTCF or EZH2—and Citation: de Castro, C.P.M.; Cadefau, in signalling mediators of the JAK/STAT and RAS pathways.

PRC2 contains the PcG proteins EZH2, SUZ12, and EED and represses transcription through methylation of lysine (K) 27 of histone H3 (H3). Suz12 is essential for PRC2 activity and its inactivation results in early lethality of mouse embryos. Here, we demonstrate that Suz12؊/؊ mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells can be established and expanded in tissue culture. The Suz12؊/؊ ES cells are characterized by global loss of H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) and higher expression levels of differentiation-specific genes. Moreover, Suz12؊/؊ ES cells are impaired in proper differentiation, resulting in a lack of repression of ES cell markers as well as activation of differentiation-specific genes. Finally, we demonstrate that the PcGs are actively recruited to several genes during ES cell differentiation, which despite an increase in H3K27me3 levels is not always http://mcb.asm.org/ sufficient to prevent transcriptional activation.

  • Automethylation of PRC2 Promotes H3K27 Methylation and Is Impaired in H3K27M Pediatric Glioma
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 5, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Automethylation of PRC2 promotes H3K27 methylation and is impaired in H3K27M pediatric glioma Chul-Hwan Lee,1,2,7 Jia-Ray Yu,1,2,7 Jeffrey Granat,1,2,7 Ricardo Saldaña-Meyer,1,2 Joshua Andrade,3 Gary LeRoy,1,2 Ying Jin,4 Peder Lund,5 James M.

In addition, PRC2 has been shown to automethylate its core subunits, EZH1/ EZH2 and SUZ12. Here, we identify the lysine residues at which EZH1/EZH2 are automethylated with EZH2-K510 and EZH2-K514 being the major such sites in vivo. Automethylated EZH2/PRC2 exhibits a higher level of histone methyltransferase activity and is required for attaining proper cellular levels of H3K27me3. While occurring inde- pendently of PRC2 recruitment to chromatin, automethylation promotes PRC2 accessibility to the histone H3 tail. Intriguingly, EZH2 automethylation is significantly reduced in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) cells that carry a lysine-to-methionine substitution in histone H3 (H3K27M), but not in cells that carry either EZH2 or EED mutants that abrogate PRC2 allosteric activation, indicating that H3K27M impairs the intrinsic activity of PRC2.

  • TERRA Regulate the Transcriptional Landscape of Pluripotent Cells

Here, we show that Telomere Repeat Binding Factor 1 (TRF1), a component of the shelterin complex, regulates the genome-wide binding of polycomb and polycomb H3K27me3 repressive marks to pluripotency genes, thereby exerting vast epigenetic changes that contribute to the maintenance of mouse ES *For correspondence: cells in a naı¨ve state.

Peters Veterans Affairs Medical Center, New York, New York ABSTRACT The Connectivity Map database contains microarray signatures of gene expression derived from approximately 6000 experiments that examined the effects of approximately 1300 single drugs on several human cancer cell lines. We used these data to prioritize pairs of drugs expected to reverse the changes in gene expression observed in the kidneys of a mouse model of HIV-associated nephropathy (Tg26 mice). We predicted that the combination of an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and a histone deacetylase inhibitor would maximally reverse the disease-associated expression of genes in the kidneys of these mice. Testing the combination of these inhibitors in Tg26 mice revealed an additive renoprotective effect, as suggested by reduction of proteinuria, improvement of renal function, and attenuation of kidney injury. Furthermore, we observed the predicted treatment-associated changes in the expression of selected genes and pathway components. In summary, these data suggest that the combination of an ACE inhibitor and a histone deacetylase inhibitor could have therapeutic potential for various kidney diseases.

  • Clinical Impact of Genomic Characterization of 15 Patients with Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia Related Malignancies
    Clinical impact of genomic characterization of 15 patients with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia related malignancies Emilie Lalonde1, Stefan Rentas1, Gerald Wertheim2, Lea Surrey2, Fumin Lin1, Xiaonan Zhao1, Amrom Obstfeld1, Richard Aplenc3, Minjie Luo1, and Marilyn Li1 1The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia 2Children's Hospital of Philadelphia 3The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia July 20, 2020 Abstract Background: Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) is a rare subtype of acute myeloid leukemia but is ~500 times more likely to develop in children with Down syndrome (DS) thro INTRODUCTION Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) is a rare subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), defined by the presence of at least 50% of blasts from the megakaryocytic lineage, and patients often present with thrombocytopenia or thrombocytosis. Other clinical features include dysplastic neutrophils, erythroid cells, and germ cell tumors in young men. AMKL is typically observed in children, accounting for 4-15% of AML cases, compared to <1% of adult patients. A diagnosis of AMKL can be made if the pathognomonic t(1;22)(p13.3;q13.3) translocation is observed, resulting in a RBM15-MKL1 gene fusion, or by pathological assessment of bone marrow as described above. However, recent studies have shown that AMKL is genetically heterogeneous with distinct sub-groups based on cytogenetic and molecular alterations.1,2 Children with Down syndrome (DS) have an estimated 150- to 500-fold increased risk of AMKL compared to children without DS.3,4 In uteroGATA1 mutations

Abstract Early-Onset Familial Alzheimer’s Disease (EOFAD) is a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder elicited by mutations in the PSEN1, PSEN2, and APP genes1. Hallmark pathological changes and symptoms observed, namely the accumulation of misfolded Amyloid-β (Aβ) in plaques and Tau aggregates in neurofibrillary tangles associated with memory loss and cognitive decline, are understood to be temporally accelerated manifestations of the more common sporadic Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease. The complete penetrance of EOFAD-causing mutations has allowed for experimental models which have proven integral to the overall understanding of AD2.
