Hoxa 9 , Meis 1 and Pbx 1 proteins have been shown to physically interact with each other , as Hoxa 9 cooperatively binds consensus DNA sequences with Meis 1 and with Pbx 1 , while Meis 1 and Pbx 1 form heterodimers in both the presence and absence of DNA . 1.1282196^^^ |

Using this approach , we identify three genes whose expression is activated by proviral integration in BXH 2 leukaemias ; Hoxa 7 , Hoxa 9 , and a Pbx 1 related homeobox gene , Meis 1 . ^^^ Proviral activation of Hoxa 7 or Hoxa 9 is strongly correlated with proviral activation of Meis 1 implying that Hoxa 7 and Hoxa 9 cooperate with Meis 1 in leukaemia formation . ^^^ |

The expression of Meis 1 ( a novel Pbx related homeobox gene ) and either Hoxa 7 or Hoxa 9 are coactivated by retroviral integration in BXH 2 murine myeloid leukemias ( T Nakamura , DA Largaespada , JD Shaughnessy Jr , NA Jenkins and NG Copeland ( 1996 ) Nature Genet . 12 : 149 153 ) . ^^^ As Pbx proteins are Hox cofactors , which cooperatively bind DNA with Hox proteins to modulate the otherwise similar DNA bind specificities of Hox proteins , these results suggested that Meis 1 may function as a cofactor for Hoxa 7 and Hoxa 9 in the induction of murine myeloid leukemias . ^^^ |

We have previously shown that HOXA 9 collaborates with MEIS 1 in the induction of acute myeloid leukemia ( AML ) . ^^^ In this report , we demonstrate that HOXB 3 , which is highly divergent from HOXA 9 , also genetically interacts with MEIS 1 , but not with PBX 1 , in generating AML . ^^^ In addition , we show that the HOXA 9 and HOXB 3 genes play key roles in establishing all the main characteristics of the leukemias , while MEIS 1 functions only to accelerate the onset of the leukemic transformation . ^^^ Contrasting the reported functional similarities between PREP 1 and MEIS 1 , such as PBX nuclear retention , we also show that PREP 1 overexpression is incapable of accelerating the HOXA 9 induced AML , suggesting that MEIS 1 function in transformation must entail more than PBX nuclear localization . ^^^ |

Frequent co expression of the HOXA 9 and MEIS 1 homeobox genes in human myeloid leukemias . ^^^ Recent studies have demonstrated that enforced co expression of HOXA 9 and MEIS 1 in murine marrow leads to rapid development of myeloid leukemia , and that these proteins exhibit cooperative DNA binding . ^^^ We surveyed expression of HOXA 9 and MEIS 1 in 24 leukemic cell lines and 80 patient samples , using RNase protection analyses and immunohistochemistry . ^^^ We demonstrate that the expression of HOXA 9 and MEIS 1 in leukemia cells is uniquely myeloid , and that these genes are commonly co expressed in myeloid cell lines and in samples of acute myelogenous leukemia ( AML ) of all subtypes except in promyelocytic leukemia . ^^^ While HOXA 9 is expressed in most cases of chronic myelogenous leukemia , MEIS 1 is weakly expressed or not at all . ^^^ |

Upregulation of Meis 1 and HoxA 9 in acute lymphocytic leukemias with the t ( 4 : 11 ) abnormality . ^^^ A preliminary DNA microarray screen indicated that the Meis 1 , HoxA 9 and AC 133 genes were overexpressed in ALLs with t ( 4 : 11 ) , compared to ALLs with very similar phenotype but without the chromosomal abnormality . ^^^ Meis 1 and HoxA 9 were found expressed in 13 / 14 of ALLs with the t ( 4 : 11 ) and in 8 / 8 of AMLs with ALL 1 rearrangements . ^^^ Coexpression of Meis 1 and HoxA 9 , overexpression of HoxA 10 , and overexpression or fusion of HoxA 9 were previously implicated in certain acute myeloid leukemias in mice and humans . ^^^ The present work suggests that upregulation of Meis 1 , HoxA 9 , and possibly HoxA 10 might also play a role in pathogenesis of acute lymphocytic and acute myeloid leukemias associated with ALL 1 fusions . . ^^^ |

Despite their cooperativity in leukemogenesis , we demonstrated previously that retroviral expression of Hoxa 9 alone in the absence of coexpressed retroviral Meis 1 or of expression of endogenous Meis genes blocks neutrophil and macrophage differentiation of primary myeloid progenitors cultured in granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor ( GM CSF ) . ^^^ |

Nup 98 HoxA 9 immortalizes myeloid progenitors , enforces expression of Hoxa 9 , Hoxa 7 and Meis 1 , and alters cytokine specific responses in a manner similar to that induced by retroviral co expression of Hoxa 9 and Meis 1 . ^^^ The association between acute myeloid leukaemia ( AML ) and the aberrant expression of Hoxa 9 is evidenced by ( 1 ) proviral activation of Hoxa 9 and Meis 1 in BXH 2 murine AML , ( 2 ) formation of the chimeric Nup 98 HoxA9 transactivator protein as a consequence of the t ( 7 ; 11 ) translocation in human AML , and ( 3 ) the strong expression of HoxA 9 and Meis 1 in human AML . ^^^ In mouse models , enforced retroviral expression of Hoxa 9 alone in marrow is not sufficient to cause rapid AML , while co expression of Meis 1 and Hoxa 9 induces rapid AML . ^^^ Ectopic expression of Meis 1 in these Hoxa 9 cells suppressed their G CSF induced differentiation , permitted proliferation in SCF , and therein offered a potential explanation of cooperative function . ^^^ Because Meis 1 binds N terminal Hoxa 9 sequences that are replaced by Nup 98 , we hypothesized that Nup 98 HoxA9 might consolidate the biochemical functions of both Hoxa 9 and Meis 1 on target gene promoters and might evoke their same lymphokine responsive profile in immortalized progenitors . ^^^ |

The Hoxa 9 and Meis 1 genes represent important oncogenic collaborators activated in a significant proportion of human leukemias with genetic alterations in the MLL gene . ^^^ Meis 1 and Pbx 1 interaction domain swapping mutants are dysfunctional separately , but restore the full oncogenic activity of Meis 1 when cotransduced in primary cells engineered to overexpress Hoxa 9 , thus implying a modular nature for PIM in Meis 1 accelerated transformation . ^^^ In contrast to Meis 1 , the fusion VP 16 Meis1 is spontaneously oncogenic , and all leukemias harbor genetic activation of endogenous Hoxa 9 and / or Hoxa 7 , suggesting that Hoxa gene activation represents a key event required for the oncogenic activity of VP 16 Meis1 . . ^^^ |

Homeobox transcription factors Meis 1 and Hoxa 9 promote hematopoietic progenitor self renewal and cooperate to cause acute myeloid leukemia ( AML ) . ^^^ While Hoxa 9 alone blocks the differentiation of nonleukemogenic myeloid cell committed progenitors , coexpression with Meis 1 is required for the production of AML initiating progenitors , which also transcribe a group of hematopoietic stem cell genes , including Cd 34 and Flt 3 ( defined as Meis 1 related leukemic signature genes ) . ^^^ Surprisingly , Vp 16 Meis1 ( but not engrailed Meis 1 ) functioned as an autonomous oncoprotein that mimicked combined activities of Meis 1 plus Hoxa 9 , immortalizing early progenitors , inducing low level expression of Meis 1 related signature genes , and causing leukemia without coexpression of exogenous or endogenous Hox genes . ^^^ Strikingly , expression of Hoxa 9 or Hoxa 7 stimulated both leukemic aggressiveness and transcription of Meis 1 related signature genes in Vp 16 Meis1 progenitors . ^^^ Interestingly , while the Hoxa 9 N terminal domain ( NTD ) is essential for cooperative transformation with wild type Meis 1 , it was dispensable in Vp 16 Meis1 progenitors . ^^^ |
