| الوصف: | Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease. Somatic gene mutations contribute to the heterogeneous clinical course of FL. ARID1A, which encodes for a subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, is among the most commonly mutated genes in FL (up to 15% of cases). These mutations are mostly disruptive and are predicted to result in protein haplodeficiency. While we have previously shown that ARID1A mutations are predictive of treatment outcome (Pastore, 2015), the underlying biology of ARID1A loss in FL is unclear. A functional genome-wide in vitro screen showed that ARID1A loss rescued a number of cancer cell lines from FAS-L induced apoptosis (Luo, 2008). FAS-L induced apoptosis plays a critical role in normal B-cell development and homeostasis. Thus, FAS/FAS-L deficiency could contribute to FL development and disease biology. Therefore, we studied the role of ARID1A loss in FAS expression and regulation. We first tested FAS-L induced apoptosis in established lymphoma cell lines that harbor the FL-hallmark translocation t(14;18)[BCL2/IGH] plus ARID1A mutations (Karpas422, WSU-FSCCL) or no ARID1A mutations (OCI-Ly1, OCI-Ly8, SU-DHL16). ARID1A mutant (mut) cells were indeed markedly less sensitive to FAS-L (300 ng/mL/24 hrs) compared to ARID1A wild type (WT) cells (98% vs 52% mean viability by Annexin-V). FAS receptor expression on mutant cells was reduced by almost half compared to WT cells by FACS analysis (N=3, P=0.0004). To test if reduced FAS expression was directly linked to ARID1A loss, we generated single-cell derived clones (from OCI-Ly1 and OCI-Ly8) with either heterozygous (het) loss or complete knock-out (KO) of ARID1A by CRISPR/Cas9. ARID1A loss was validated by Sanger sequencing and Western blot. We consistently observed significantly reduced FAS-L induced apoptosis in het and KO clones (exemplary shown for OCI-Ly8 in Fig A). Remarkably, re-expressed of ARID1A in het cells (het+ARID1A) rescued sensitivity to FAS-L induced apoptosis (Fig A). We confirmed reduced FAS expression on mutant clones by FACS, while re-expression of ARID1A rescued its expression (Fig B). Furthermore, FAS mRNA expression was significantly reduced by qPCR in mut vs WT clones (N=4, P To understand the molecular mechanism that links ARID1A loss and reduced FAS expression, we performed ATAC sequencing (Seq) and RNA Seq on 15 single-cell derived clones (9 mut and 6 WT from OCI-Ly1 and OCI-Ly8). RNA Seq confirmed significantly lower ARID1A and FAS mRNA levels (adj p To functionally validate our model, we first confirmed reduced RUNX3 expression in ARID1A mutant clones by qPCR and Western blot, and showed that ETS1 levels were unaffected by ARID1A loss. Then, we stably overexpressed RUNX3 in ARID1A mutant clones by lentiviral transduction and could indeed show rescue of FAS surface levels by FACS (Fig D). Lastly, we wanted to validate our findings in primary patients samples. We quantified FAS expression in FL biopsies with known ARID1A mutation status by nCounter gene expression profiling (GEP; N=51, 12 mut vs 39 WT) and quantitative multispectral imaging (QMI; N=44, 10 mut vs 34 WT) (Fig E). Both approaches showed significantly reduced FAS expression in ARID1A mutant FL (P In summary, we show that ARID1A loss is directly linked to reduced FAS expression via a novel RUNX3/ETS1 transcriptional network, potentially opening avenues for therapeutic targeting of this clinically relevant perturbation.
