Abstract: The epigenetic landscape plays a critical role in the onset and evolution of various malignancies, but its therapeutic utility remains underutilized. Glucocorticoids are an essential part of many multi-agent treatment regimens for lymphoid malignancies. However, the emergence of glucocorticoid resistance is a significant barrier to cure, which is in part due to epigenetic alterations, including aberrant chromatin accessibility and hypermethylation at lymphocyte-specific glucocorticoid-response elements (GREs). To gain a deeper understanding of regulatory mechanisms leading to these epigenetic alterations, we conducted a multi-omics study, including chromosome conformation capture sequencing (HiC), to examine changes in the 3D genome structure following the in vivo treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) with glucocorticoid. We found that glucocorticoid treatment led to distinct patterns of topologically associated domains (TADs) in glucocorticoid sensitive compared to resistant PDXs. Furthermore, we show that these TADs were primed by the development-related pioneer transcription factor PU.1, which extensively interacts with the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) exclusively in glucocorticoid-sensitive ALL PDXs. An integrative analysis of rapid immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry of endogenous protein (RIME) and ChIP-seq revealed that PU.1 binding was associated with lymphocyte-specific activation of GREs and GRE-interacting super-enhancers. The PU.1-associated TADs modulated epigenetic marks, and particularly the eviction of PU.1 promoted GR binding and the expression of signature genes, including BIM, ZBTB16 and RASA1, mediating glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis in ALL. These findings were phenocopied using a PU.1 inhibitor DB2313 to restore glucocorticoid sensitivity in ALL. Taken together, this study identified a new epigenetic pathway integrating PU.1 priming and PU.1-GR interaction which ultimately leads to PU.1 eviction in ALL. This pathway provides the first link between the activity of a lineage-specific transcription factor and epigenetic modulators mediating the response to glucocorticoids and thus offers a new avenue to translate fundamental epigenetic research into the clinic.
