项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT Clonal blood differentiation through the acquisition of somatic mutations result in abnormal accumulation of blood components and clinically manifest as myeloid disorders. The study of how these somatic mutations perturb the differentiation trajectories in human hematopoiesis is often challenged by the admixture of normal hematopoietic cells with the neoplastic cells that cannot be distinguished by cell surface markers. To overcome this limitation, we developed a novel single-cell multi-omics Genotyping of Transcriptomes (GoT) platform that directly links somatic genotypes with transcriptomes of thousands of single cells. Thus, GoT enabled the comparison of mutant and wildtype cells within the same sample in the context of progenitor identities, thereby turning the co-mingling of mutant and wildtype hematopoiesis from a limitation to an advantage. As proof of principle, GoT was applied to CD34+ progenitor cells from patients with calreticulin- mutated myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), revealing key pathways that were aberrantly activated in the mutant cells, such as a robust unfolded protein response in the megakaryocytic progenitors, on the one way, and NF-KB pathway in stem cell-enriched populations, on the other. Overall, GoT revealed that the transcriptional impact of calreticulin mutations is highly variable as a function of progenitor identity – which bears significant implications for therapy by enabling the discovery of targetable pathways specific to the earliest stem cells. Thus, to demonstrate the cell identity-dependency across other key driver mutations, as a fundamental concept in myeloid disorders, I will apply GoT to thrombopoietin receptor-mutated progenitor cells and to clonally-diverse cells from MPN samples (Aim 1). Next, in order to define cell extrinsic determinants of somatic mutation impact, I will determine the immune niche interactions with calreticulin-mutant and wildtype progenitor cells, as well as the impact of immunomodulatory therapy on these interactions (Aim 2). Finally, I will test the hypothesis that the cell’s epigenome precedes the cell identity-dependency of somatic mutation effects, by developing and applying a novel single-cell platform that integrates somatic genotyping with chromatin accessibility states of progenitor cells (Aim 3). Thus, I will define the genetic, epigenetic, transcriptional and environmental factors that culminate in the clinical output of somatic mutations in human hematopoiesis. These studies will, therefore, unveil not only fundamental concepts in clonal hematopoietic differentiation but also specific targets for therapeutic intervention.

项目概要/摘要通过获得体细胞突变进行克隆血液分化导致异常积累研究这些体细胞突变如何在血液成分和临床上表现为骨髓疾病。扰乱人类造血的分化轨迹经常受到正常细胞混合的挑战造血细胞与无法通过细胞表面标志物区分的肿瘤细胞。克服了这一限制，我们开发了一种新型单细胞多组学转录组基因分型 (GoT) 直接将体细胞基因型与数千个单细胞的转录组连接起来的平台，GoT。能够在祖细胞背景下比较同一样本中的突变型和野生型细胞身份，从而将突变型和野生型造血作用的混合从限制转变为一种作为原理证明，GoT 应用于来自钙网蛋白-患者的 CD34+ 祖细胞。突变的骨髓增生性肿瘤（MPN），揭示了异常激活的关键通路突变细胞，例如巨核细胞祖细胞中强烈的未折叠蛋白反应，一方面另一方面，GoT 揭示了富含干细胞的群体中的 NF-KB 途径。钙网蛋白突变的转录影响随着祖细胞身份的变化而变化很大——这通过发现针对特定疾病的可靶向途径，对治疗产生重大影响因此，为了证明其他关键驱动突变的细胞身份依赖性，如这是骨髓疾病的基本概念，我将把 GoT 应用于血小板生成素受体突变的祖细胞细胞和来自 MPN 样本的克隆多样性细胞（目标 1）。体细胞突变影响的决定因素，我将确定与钙网蛋白突变体的免疫生态位相互作用和野生型祖细胞，以及免疫调节治疗对这些相互作用的影响（目标 2）.最后，我将检验细胞的表观基因组先于细胞身份依赖性的假设体细胞突变效应，通过开发和应用集成体细胞的新型单细胞平台利用祖细胞染色质可及性状态进行基因分型（目标 3）。因此，我将定义遗传，表观遗传、转录和环境因素最终导致体细胞突变的临床输出因此，这些研究不仅将揭示克隆的基本概念。造血分化也是治疗干预的具体目标。
