The phenotypic effect of some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) depends on their parental origin. We present a novel approach to detect parent-of-origin effects (POEs) in genome-wide genotype data of unrelated individuals. The method exploits increased phenotypic variance in the heterozygous genotype group relative to the homozygous groups. We applied the method to >56,000 unrelated individuals to search for POEs influencing body mass index (BMI). Six lead SNPs were carried forward for replication in five family-based studies (of ∼4,000 trios). Two SNPs replicated: the paternal rs2471083-C allele (located near the imprinted KCNK9 gene) and the paternal rs3091869-T allele (located near the SLC2A10 gene) increased BMI equally (beta = 0.11 (SD), P, Author Summary Large genetic association studies have revealed many genetic factors influencing common traits, such as body mass index (BMI). These studies assume that the effect of genetic variants is the same regardless of whether they are inherited from the mother or the father. In our study, we have developed a new approach that allows us to investigate variants whose impact depends on their parental origin (parent-of-origin effects), in unrelated samples when the parental origin cannot be inferred. This is feasible because at genetic markers at which such effects occur there is increased variability of the trait among individuals who inherited different genetic codes from their mother and their father compared to individuals who inherited the same genetic code from both parents. We applied this methodology to discover genetic markers with parent-of-origin effects (POEs) on BMI. This resulted in six candidate markers showing strong POE association. We then attempted to replicate the POE effects of these markers in family studies (where one can infer the parental origin of the inherited variants). Two of our candidates showed significant association in the family studies, the paternal and maternal effects of these markers were in the opposite direction.

Transplantation of hematopoietic cells from a healthy individual (allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT)) demonstrates that adoptive immunotherapy can cure blood cancers: still, post-transplantation relapses remain frequent. To explain their drivers, we analyzed the genomic and gene expression profiles of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts purified from patients at serial time-points during their disease history. We identified a transcriptional signature specific for post-transplantation relapses and highly enriched in immune-related processes, including T cell costimulation and antigen presentation. In two independent patient cohorts we confirmed the deregulation of multiple costimulatory ligands on AML blasts at post-transplantation relapse (PD-L1, B7-H3, CD80, PVRL2), mirrored by concomitant changes in circulating donor T cells. Likewise, we documented the frequent loss of surface expression of HLA-DR, -DQ and -DP on leukemia cells, due to downregulation of the HLA class II regulator CIITA. We show that loss of HLA class II expression and upregulation of inhibitory checkpoint molecules represent alternative modalities to abolish AML recognition from donor-derived T cells, and can be counteracted by interferon-gamma or checkpoint blockade, respectively. Our results demonstrate that the deregulation of pathways involved in T cell-mediated allorecognition is a distinctive feature and driver of AML relapses after allo-HCT, which can be rapidly translated into personalized therapies.

INTRODUCTION: Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (allo-HSCT) represents an effective form of adoptive immunotherapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), thanks to the antitumor effect mediated by donor immune cells infused as part of the graft. Unfortunately, post-transplantation relapses remain a frequent observation, warranting further investigation on AML immunobiology. Our group demonstrated that relapses after partially HLA-incompatible HSCT are frequently due to the outgrowth of immune-resistant mutant AML clones characterized by genomic loss the mismatched histocompatibility determinants targeted by alloreactive donor T cells, and have thus gained a selective advantage upon pressure from the transplanted immune system, in a process called “leukemia immunoediting” (Vago et al., N Engl J Med, 2009). In the present study, we took advantage of high-throughput technologies to profile post-transplantation AML relapses with no genomic loss of HLA, to identify novel targets of the leukemia immunoediting process. METHODS: Serial AML samples were collected and FACS-purified from 9 patients at diagnosis, relapse after sole chemotherapy and relapse after allo-HSCT, and employed for whole transcriptome profiling using Illumina HumanHT12 microarrays. Deregulated genes were identified by pair-wise LIMMA analysis, and unsupervised enrichment analysis was performed interrogating the Gene Ontology database. High-throughput results were confirmed in a validation cohort of 12 patients by ad hoc designed qPCR assays, immunophenotypic analyses and functional experiments. In particular, co-cultures were performed using as responders peripheral blood lymphocytes harvested from patients after allo-HSCT, and as stimulators and targets their respective AML blasts collected at diagnosis or at relapse: read-outs included antigen-specific T cell activation, cytotoxicity, and cytokine release. RESULTS: Amongst all the genes expressed by purified AML blasts, a 110-gene signature (p CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that the deregulation of immune-related processes, and in particular of molecules and pathways involved in T cell-mediated allo-recognition, are pervasive and distinctive features of AML relapses after allo-HSCT. Identification of patient-specific mechanisms of immune evasion might be translated into personalized therapeutic approaches, tailored to restore or circumvent inefficient antigen presentation and T cell costimulation.
