    Experimental metastasis assays were performed in NSG mice using NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells (n = 7) or PBS (n = 3) with injection through the mouse tail vein. (A) Representative image of cutaneous metastasis-bearing mice. Metastatic burden was assessed at 39 days after injection. (B–I) Representative H&E images. Mice presented skin nodules without dermis and subcutis hyperplasia (A–C) and spleen hyperplasia (D). A lymphomatous infiltration invaded the liver (E) and spleen (F). The neoplastic cells included a predominant population of small- to medium-sized neoplastic cells with irregular nuclei (G). Many cells are fried-egg cells with pale cytoplasms and centrally located nuclei (H, arrowheads) and cells with ring-like nuclei (I, arrowheads). Histological analysis with anti-ALK antibody showed a strong ALK staining in the large lymphoma cells as compared with the small variants (J and K). Small cells are often localized around blood vessels (L). Original magnifications ×5, ×20, or ×40).

    (A) We used publicly available methylation data sets (30) generated from different developmental T cell stages (multipotent ETPs [CD34+/CD1a–; n = 2]; T cell–committed progenitors [CD34+/CD1a+; n = 1]; pre-TCR T cells [n = 2]; TCR-expressing CD4+/CD8+ double-positive T cells [DP-TCR+, n = 2]; and single positive [SP] CD8+ or CD4+ cells [SP-CD4+; n = 2 or SP-CD8+; n = 2]) to identify a cluster of 510 DMRs available to discriminate each different stage of T cell differentiation in the thymus. (B) Hierarchical clustering dendrogram using a cluster of 510 DMRs revealed that NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells were distant to the healthy CD4+ lymphocyte profile and clustered with primary NPM-ALK+ ALCL biopsies. Heatmaps also showed a similarity of NPM-ALK+ cells (NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells and primary patient–derived NPM-ALK+ ALCL) with CD34+/CD1a– cells corresponding to the ETP stage.

    (A) We used publicly available methylation data sets (30) generated from different developmental T cell stages (multipotent ETPs [CD34+/CD1a–; n = 2]; T cell–committed progenitors [CD34+/CD1a+; n = 1]; pre-TCR T cells [n = 2]; TCR-expressing CD4+/CD8+ double-positive T cells [DP-TCR+, n = 2]; and single positive [SP] CD8+ or CD4+ cells [SP-CD4+; n = 2 or SP-CD8+; n = 2]) to identify a cluster of 510 DMRs available to discriminate each different stage of T cell differentiation in the thymus. (B) Hierarchical clustering dendrogram using a cluster of 510 DMRs revealed that NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells were distant to the healthy CD4+ lymphocyte profile and clustered with primary NPM-ALK+ ALCL biopsies. Heatmaps also showed a similarity of NPM-ALK+ cells (NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells and primary patient–derived NPM-ALK+ ALCL) with CD34+/CD1a– cells corresponding to the ETP stage.

    Figure Lengend Snippet: mRNA expression profiles from several cell populations isolated ex vivo from the neonatal human thymus defining in vivo maturation stages, multipotent ETPs (CD34+/CD1a–/CD7–; n = 3), late thymic precursor (CD34+/CD1a–/CD7+; n = 3), T cell–committed progenitors (CD34+/CD1a–/CD7+; n = 3), CD3–/CD4+ immature single-positive (ISP) (ISP-CD4+, n = 4), CD4+/CD8+ double-positive TCR– cells (DP-TCR–; n = 3), and TCR-expressing CD4+/CD8+ double-positive T cells (DP-TCR+, n = 3) were integrated with our previous findings from the gene expression array data of 55 primary NPM-ALK+ ALCL samples (NPM-ALK+ ALCL) (35) and RNA-Seq data from the NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells (CD4+/NPM-ALK+; n = 9). NPM-ALK CD4+/NPM-ALK+ cells were distant to the healthy CD4+ lymphocyte but close to NPM-ALK+ ALCL. Moreover, NPM-ALK+ cells (NPM-ALK–transformed CD4+ T cells and primary patient–derived NPM-ALK+ ALCL) showed a similarity with the ETP stage.

    Article Snippet: Immunodetections were performed with antibodies directed against NPM-ALK at 1/5000 (Cell Signaling, catalog 3633), phospho-ALK at 1/1000 (Cell Signaling, catalog CS14678S), STAT3 at 1/1000 (Cell Signaling, catalog CS9132), P-STAT3 at 1/1000 (Cell Signaling, catalog CS9131), HIF2α at 1/1000 (Bethyl, catalog MAB374), NANOG at 1/1000 (Cell Signaling, catalog CST 4893S; mouse mAb 1E6C4), SOX2 at 1/1000 (Cell Signaling, catalog CST 4900S; mouse mAb L1D6A2), OCT4 at 1/500 (StemGent, catalog 09-0023 rabbit polyclonal), β-tubulin at 1/5000 (MilliporeSigma, catalog T4026; mouse mAb TUB 2.1), or GAPDH at 1/10,000 (Millipore, catalog MAB374).

    (A) Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of ALK and EPAS1 mRNA was performed in primary patient–derived NPM-ALK+ ALCL cells (n = 29). Relative mRNA expression was expressed as the 2–ΔΔCt relative to MLN51, S5, ABL, GAPDH, S14, or RPL0 genes for normalization and compared with preactivated healthy CD4+ lymphocytes (n = 5). Data represent mean ± SEM. ***P < 0.001; unpaired 2-tailed Student’s t test. (B) Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of EPAS1 mRNA expression in NPM-ALK+ lymphoma cell lines, COST, KARPAS-299 (KARPAS), and SU-DHL1, treated for 72 hours or not (PBS) with crizotinib or transfected with either an irrelevant siRNA as the negative control (si-CTL) or a siRNA targeting ALK mRNA (si-ALK) or STAT3 (si-STAT3). Relative EPAS1 mRNA expression was expressed as the 2–ΔCt relative to MLN51. Data represent mean ± SEM from 3 independent experiments. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001; unpaired 2-tailed Student’s t test with Welch’s correction. (C) Western blotting analysis of HIF2A expression (top) in NPM-ALK+ COST, KARPAS-299, and SU-DHL1 cells treated with crizotinib (crizo) or not (PBS), transfected by si-CTL, si-ALK, or si-STAT3. The GAPDH protein (bottom) served as an internal control to ensure equal loading. Results from 1 representative experiment are shown.
