ABSTRACT

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are mainly sporadic but inherited variants have been associated with higher risk development. Here, we identified an EPOR variant (EPORP488S ) in a large family diagnosed with JAK2V617F -positive polycythaemia vera (PV) or essential thrombocytosis (ET). We investigated its functional impact on JAK2V617F clonal amplification in patients and found that the variant allele fraction (VAF) was low in PV progenitors but increase strongly in mature cells. Moreover, we observed that EPORP488S alone induced a constitutive phosphorylation of STAT5 in cell lines or primary cells. Overall, this study points for searching inherited-risk alleles affecting the JAK2/STAT pathway in MPN.

ABSTRACT

The germline predisposition associated with the autosomal dominant inheritance of the 14q32 duplication implicating ATG2B/GSKIP genes is characterized by a wide clinical spectrum of myeloid neoplasms. We analyzed 12 asymptomatic carriers and 52 patients aged 18-74 years from six families, by targeted sequencing of 41 genes commonly mutated in myeloid malignancies. We found that 75% of healthy carriers displayed early clonal hematopoiesis mainly driven by TET2 mutations. Molecular landscapes of patients revealed two distinct routes of clonal expansion and leukemogenesis. The first route is characterized by the clonal dominance of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN)-driver events associated with TET2 mutations in half of cases and mutations affecting splicing and/or the RAS pathway in one-third of cases, leading to the early development of MPN, mostly essential thrombocythemia, with a high risk of transformation (50% after 10 years). The second route is distinguished by the absence of MPN-driver mutations and leads to AML without prior MPN. These patients mostly harbored a genomic landscape specific to acute myeloid leukemia secondary to myelodysplastic syndrome. An unexpected result was the total absence of DNMT3A mutations in this cohort. Our results suggest that the germline duplication constitutively mimics hematopoiesis aging by favoring TET2 clonal hematopoiesis.

ABSTRACT

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are clonal hematological malignancies that lead to overproduction of mature myeloid cells. They are due to acquired mutations in genes encoding for AK2, MPL and CALR that result in the activation of the cytokine receptor/JAK2 signaling pathway. In addition, it exists germline variants that can favor the initiation of the disease or may affect its phenotype. First, they can be common risk alleles, which correspond to frequent single nucleotide variants present in control population and that contribute to the development of either sporadic or familial MPN. Second, some variants predispose to the onset of MPN with a higher penetrance and lead to familial clustering of MPN. Finally, some extremely rare genetic variants can induce MPN-like hereditary disease. We will review these different subtypes of germline genetic variants and discuss how they impact the initiation and/or development of the MPN disease.

ABSTRACT

Mutations of calreticulin (CALRm) define a subtype of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). We studied the biological and genetic features of CALR-mutated essential thrombocythemia and myelofibrosis patients. In most cases, CALRm were found in granulocytes, monocytes, B and NK cells, but also in T cells. However, the type 1 CALRm spreads more easily than the type 2 CALRm in lymphoid cells. The CALRm were also associated with an early clonal dominance at the level of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) with no significant increase during granulo/monocytic differentiation in most cases. Moreover, we found that half of type 2 CALRm patients harbors some homozygous progenitors. Those patients were associated with a higher clonal dominance during granulo/monocytic differentiation than patients with only heterozygous type 2 CALRm progenitors. When associated mutations were present, CALRm were the first genetic event suggesting that they are both the initiating and phenotypic event. In blood, type 1 CALRm led to a greater increased number of all types of progenitors compared with the type 2 CALRm. However, both types of CALRm induced an increase in megakaryocytic progenitors associated with a ruxolitinib-sensitive independent growth and with a mild constitutive signaling in megakaryocytes. At the transcriptional level, type 1 CALRm seems to deregulate more pathways than the type 2 CALRm in megakaryocytes. Altogether, our results show that CALRm modify both the HSPC and megakaryocyte biology with a stronger effect for type 1 than for type 2 CALRm.
