Description
It has been hypothesized that chemotherapy resistant human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells are enriched in an immature phenotype, cellular quiescence and leukemic initiating cells (LICs). However, these hypotheses have never been validated completely in vivo. We have developed a physiologically relevant chemotherapeutic approach with cytosine arabinoside AraC using patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. AraC-treated AML cells are not consistently enriched for either immature cells or quiescent cells. AraC treatment does not enrich for LICs as measured by limiting dilution in secondary transplantations. Rather chemotherapy resistant cells in vivo have high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a gene signature consistent with oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Treatment of human HIGH OXPHOS but not LOW OXPHOS AML cell lines showed chemotherapy resistance in vivo, showing that essential mitochondrial functions make significant contributions to AraC resistance in AML. Accordingly, targeting mitochondrial OXPHOS metabolism through the inhibition of mitochondrial protein synthesis, the electron transfer chain or fatty acid oxidation induced an energetic shift towards LOW OXPHOS and strongly enhanced anti-leukemic effects of AraC in AML cells. These results demonstrate that chemotherapy resistance in AML is not necessarily associated with stemness but is highly dependent on a distinct oxidative metabolism, and that the HIGH OXPHOS gene signature is a robust hallmark of the AraC response in PDX and a promising therapeutic avenue to treat AML residual disease.

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
Circuit neuroscience has made great progress by linking neuronal function to marker gene expression, allowing the specific investigation of otherwise indistinguishable neuronal ensembles. Here, we performed next generation sequencing on two functionally and genetically distinct interneuronal populations marked by the expression of protein kinase C d (PKCd) or somatostatin (SST) in the central amygdala (CEA) of mice, which are known to play distinct and sometimes opposing roles in emotion processing. Making their gene expression profile known will aid in forming hypotheses of how different neurotransmitters or psychoactive drugs could alter information processing in these neurons. Overall design: Unchallenged gene expression profile of two different neuronal populations in the central amygdala

Description
Previous studies in our laboratory demonstrated that the azurophil granule protease neutrophil elastase (NE) cleaves PML-RARA (PR), the fusion protein that initiates acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Further, NE deficiency reduces the penetrance of APL in a murine model of this disease. We therefore predicted that NE-mediated PR cleavage might be important for its ability to initiate APL. To test this hypothesis, we generated a mouse expressing NE-resistant PR. These mice developed APL indistinguishable from wild type PR, but with significantly reduced latency (median leukemia-free survival of 274 days versus 473 days for wild type PR, p<0.001). Resistance to proteolysis may increase the abundance of full length PR protein in early myeloid cells, and our previous data suggested that non-cleaved PR may be less toxic to early myeloid cells. Together, these effects appear to increase the leukemogenicity of NE-resistant PR, contrary to our previous prediction. We conclude that NE deficiency may reduce APL penetrance via indirect mechanisms that are still NE dependent.

Description
To better understand the pathogenesis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL, FAB M3 AML), we identified genes that are expressed differently in APL cells compared to other acute myeloid leukemia subtypes, and to normal promyelocytes. Comparative gene expression analysis of 14 M3, 62 other AML (M0, M1, M2 and M4) and 5 enriched normal promyelocyte samples revealed a signature of 1,121 genes that are specifically dysregulated in M3 samples relative to other AML, and that do not simply represent normal promyelocyte expression (M3-specific signature). We used a novel, high throughput digital platform (Nanostring's nCounter system) to evaluate a subset of the most significantly dysregulated genes in 30 AML samples; 33 of 37 evaluable gene expression patterns were validated. In an additional analysis, we selected only genes that are dysregulated in M3 both compared to other AML subtypes, and to purified normal CD34+ cells, promyelocytes, and/or neutrophils, thereby isolating a 478 gene "composite M3 dysregulome". Surprisingly, the expression of only a few of these genes was significantly altered in PR-9 cells after PML-RARA induction, suggesting that most of these genes are not direct targets of PML-RARA. Comparison of the M3-specific signature to our previously described murine APL dysregulome revealed 33 commonly dysregulated genes, including JUN, EGR1, and TNF. Collectively, these results suggest that PML-RARA initiates a transcriptional cascade which generates a unique downstream expression signature in both primary human and mouse APL cells.
