2 INTRODUCTION Stem-Cell driven cancer in mice A B ONCOGENE TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS?????????? NORMAL DEVELOPMENT CANCER
3 Targeting oncogenic alterations to the stem cell compartment OBJECTIVE
4 OBJECTIVE How to restrict oncogene expression to the stem cells? Contribution of CSC to cancer biology? Sca1 The key feature of these Sca1 mice is that they express an oncogene under the control of a promoter that is expressed in a population of stem/progenitor cells, but is switched off after lineage commitment.
5 OBJECTIVE MULTIPLE MYELOMA MULTIPLE MYELOMA. Plasma cell neoplasia Symptomatic myeloma: - Clonal plasma cells >10% on bone marrow biopsy or (in any quantity) in a biopsy from other tissues (plasmacytoma) - A monoclonal protein (paraprotein) in either serum or urine (except in cases of true non-secretory myeloma) - Evidence of end-organ damage felt related to the plasma cell disorder (related organ or tissue impairment, ROTI, commonly referred to by the acronym "CRAB"): HyperCalcemia (corrected calcium >2.75 mmol/l) Renal insufficiency attributable to myeloma Anemia (hemoglobin <10 g/dl) Bone lesions (lytic lesions or osteoporosis with compression fractures) TABLE: The location and oncogenes involved in multiple myeloma Locus Oncogene Incidence 11q13 CCND1 15%-20% 6p21 CCND3 5% 4p16.3 FGFR3 and MMSET 12% 16q23 c-maf 5%-10% 20q11 MAFB 5% 8q24 MYC <10% 6q25 MUM1/IRF4 5% 1q21-34 BCL9, IL6R, MCL1 Frequent HSC CLP pro-b pre-b B cell GENETIC ALTERATION Plasma cell accumulation (MULTIPLE MYELOMA)
6 RESULTS Generation of Sca1-MafB mice ORGAN MALFUNCTION SPLEEN Sca1-MafB Control KIDNEY Sca1-MafB Control Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
7 RESULTS Tumor plasma cell infiltrates Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
8 RESULTS Abnormal immunoglobulin production by Sca1-MafB mice OLIGOCLONAL IgG INCREASE AMYLOID DEPOSITES IgG Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
9 RESULTS Bone lesions in Sca1-MafB mice CONTROL 200X CONTROL CONTROL 100X Sca1-MAF-B 200X Sca1-MAF-B Sca1-MAF-B 100X CONTROL 400X Sca1-MAF-B 400X Sca1-MAF-B 400X HUMAN BONE LESIONS Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
10 RESULTS Sca1-MafB stem cells are different from control stem cells GENE EXPRESSION PROFILE GENOME-SCALE DNA METHYLATION ANALYSIS Sca1-MafB HS/P-Cs cells Sca1-MafB B cells WT B cells Sca1-MafB HS/P cells WT HS/P cells WT Myeloid cells CONSERVED METHYLATION CHANGES a) Sca1-MafB B cells b) Sca1-MafB HS/P cells c) WT B cells Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
11 REMARKS REMARKS 1- Sca1-MafB mice phenotype recapitulates the features of human Multiple Myeloma. (Marrow Plasmacytosis, Plasmacytoma on Biopsy, M component: serum increase of oligoclonal IgG. Multiorgan plasma cell-related amyloid accumulation, Lytic bone lesions) 2- Restricting oncogene expression to the stem cell compartment is enough to drive specific tumour development. So it is possible to reprogram HSC into tumor cells and this reprograming is mediated by DNA methylation. Vicente-Dueñas et al. The EMBO Journal (2012)
