Paper
PU.1 eviction at lymphocyte-specific chromatin domains mediates glucocorticoid response in acute lymphoblastic leukemiaNature communications · 2024
Summary (written by the submitters)
Glucocorticoids are an essential part of many multi-agent treatment regimens for lymphoid malignancies where the emergence of glucocorticoid resistance is a significant barrier to a cure. We have previously identified that aberrant chromatin accessibility, at lymphocyte-specific glucocorticoid-response elements (GREs), is associated with drug resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL).

To gain a deeper understanding of regulatory mechanisms leading to these epigenetic alterations, we conducted a multi-omics study, to examine changes in chromatin conformation, following the in-vivo treatment of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) with glucocorticoid i.e., dexamethasone (DEX). We found that glucocorticoid treatment led to distinct patterns of topological associated domains (TADs) in DEX sensitive and resistant ALLs. Pre-treatment, these TADs were primed by a development-related pioneer transcription factor PU.1, which also occupied GREs in glucocorticoid sensitive but not resistant ALLs. PU.1 binding was associated with lymphocyte-specific activation of GREs and GRE-interacting super-enhancers within the TADs. Furthermore, the PU.1-associated TADs modulated epigenetics and promoted expression of multiple genes, including BIM, ZBTB16, RASA1 and other genes mediating glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis in ALL. The inhibition of PU.1 enhanced sensitivity of ALL cells to glucocorticoid treatment. Overall, this study illustrated a link between the lineage-specific efficiency of glucocorticoids and the developmental epigenetic modulators and provides insights into the role of fundamental epigenetics in clinical practice.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE236085_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA988808 and SRA study SRP446362. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
21 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 21 sample titles: 21 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
