Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Myelodysplastic syndromes are a group of heterogeneous diseases, associated with a variety of gene mutations. In this work, we attempted to elucidate the molecular basis of MDS pathogenesis, by focusing on the mutations of epigenetic factors.ASXL1 mutations (ASXL1-MT) globally reduced histone H3K4me3, leading to reduced functions of hematopoietic stem cells, and differentiation block of erythroid cells. Our knock-in mouse of ASXL1-MT can be a good model for pre-MDS or clonal hematopoiesis. An EZH2 mutant lacking its SET domain induced an MDS-like disease in mouse MDS model, via derepression of ABC-G2 induced by reduction of H3K27me3. We found that ABC-G2, known as a hematopoietic stem cells, is specifically expressed at higher levels in MDS among hematological malignancies. Interestingly, overexpression of ABC-G2 alone induced an MDS-like disease in mouse BMT model. These results suggest that ABC-G2 expression plays pivotal roles in MDS pathogenesis.
