Oncogenic cooperation in a human de novo T-ALL model

We previously modelled T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) by over-expressing four oncogenes (activated NOTCH1, LMO2, TAL1, and BMI1) in healthy human umbilical cord blood cells through lentiviral transduction (Kusakabe et al, Nat Commun 10, 2913 (2019). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-10510-8). We have now tested individual effects of the four oncogenes by transducing human cells with all possible combinations of one, two, three, and four oncogenes. We also tested the effects of additional known T-ALL oncogenes including HOXA9, LYL1, MEF2C, NXK2.1, TLX1, and TLX3. In addition to culture in vitro on OP9-DL1 feeders, we also injected transduced cells into immunodeficient NSG mice. We observed differing abilities of the various oncogene combinations to support growth in vitro and frank leukemia in vivo. This study includes RNA-seq data from samples of transduced cells cultured in vitro as well as cells harvested from clinically moribund mice after development of leukemia in vivo.

Dataset ID	Description	Technology	Samples
EGAD00001009749	This dataset includes 4 samples profiled by high-throughput Illumina sequencing, in bam format, aligned to GRCh37. Human patient T-ALL samples were serially propagated as xenografts in immunodeficient mice. The samples were collected after development of frank leukemia in recipient mice.	Illumina HiSeq 2500	4
EGAD00001009750	This dataset includes 90 samples profiled by high-throughput Illumina sequencing, in bam format, aligned to GRCh37. Normal human CD34+ cord blood (CB), bone marrow (BM), or post-natal thymus (PNT) cells were transduced with various combinations of T-ALL oncogenes and cultured in vitro.	Illumina HiSeq 2500	90
EGAD00001009751	This dataset includes 73 samples profiled by high-throughput Illumina sequencing, in bam format, aligned to GRCh37. Normal human CD34+ cord blood (CB), bone marrow (BM), or post-natal thymus (PNT) cells were transduced with various combinations of T-ALL oncogenes, cultured in vitro on OP9-DL1 feeders for up to 25 days, and then transplanted into immunodeficient NSG or NRG mice. The samples were collected after development of frank leukemia in recipient mice.	Illumina HiSeq 2500	73
