Abstract

Background

Mutations in epigenetic modifiers were reported in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) including mutations in DNA methyltransferase 3A gene (DNMT3A) in 20%-30% patients and mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 gene (IDH1/2) in 5%-15% patients. Novel studies have shown that mutations in DNMT3A and IDH1/2 influence prognosis, indicating an increasing need to detect these mutations during routine laboratory analysis. DNA sequencing for the identification of these mutations is time-consuming and cost-intensive. This study aimed to establish rapid screening tests to identify mutations in DNMT3A and IDH1/2 that could be applied in routine laboratory procedures and that could influence initial patient management.

Methods

In this study we developed an endonuclease restriction method to identify the most common DNMT3A mutation (R882H) and an amplification-refractory mutation system (ARMS) to analyse IDH2 R140Q mutations. Furthermore, we compared these methods with HRM analysis and evaluated the latter for the detection of IDH1 mutations.

Results

Of 230 samples from patients with AML 30 (13%) samples had DNMT3A mutations, 16 (7%) samples had IDH2 R140Q mutations and 36 (16%) samples had IDH1 mutations. Sensitivity assays performed using serial dilutions of mutated DNA showed that ARMS analysis had a sensitivity of 4.5%, endonuclease restriction had a sensitivity of 0.05% and HRM analysis had a sensitivity of 5.9%–7.8% for detecting different mutations. HRM analysis was the best screening method to determine the heterogeneity of IDH1 mutations. Furthermore, for the identification of mutations in IDH2 and DNMT3A, endonuclease restriction and ARMS methods showed a perfect concordance (100%) with Sanger sequencing while HRM analysis showed a near-perfect concordance (approximately 98%).

Conclusion

Our study suggested that all the developed methods were rapid, specific and easy to use and interpret. HRM analysis is the most timesaving and cost-efficient method to rapidly screen all the 3 genes at diagnosis in samples obtained from patients with AML. Endonuclease restriction and ARMS assays can be used separately or in combination with HRM analysis to obtain more reliable results. We propose that early screening of mutations in patients with AML having normal karyotype could facilitate risk stratification and improve treatment options.

Background

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a clonal disorder characterised by the accumulation of myeloid cells and impairment of normal haematopoiesis [1]. The recent large-scale sequencing of AML genomes is now providing opportunities for patient stratification and personalised approaches to treatments that are based on an individual’s mutation profiles [13]. A few recurring gene mutations and overexpressed genes having prognostic relevance in AML have been identified and incorporated in the current prognostication models.
Recently, a new class of mutations affecting genes for DNA methylation and post-translational histone modification was identified in AML. These mutations frequently occur in the DNA nucleotide methyltransferase 3A gene (DNMT3A) [48] and isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 gene (IDH1/2) (isocitrat dehydrogenase 1/2) [913]. DNMT3A belongs to the mammalian methyltransferase gene family, which also includes DNTM1, DNMT3B and DNMT3L. Methyltransferases modify methylation patterns by enzymatically adding a methyl group to cytosine residues in CpG islands and are involved in tissue-specific gene expression [4, 14]. Studies in different AML cohorts have reported the incidence of DNMT3A mutations in up to 22% de novo AML and 36% cytogenetically normal AML samples [5, 6]. Nonsense, frameshift and missense mutations commonly occur in DNMT3A; however a point mutation at position R882 is the most frequently (40%–60%) observed mutation [7]. In vitro studies suggest that mutations at this position disturb the formation of heterodimers with DNMT3L, thereby preventing the catalytic activity of DNMT3A. Different studies have shown a negative impact of DNMT3A mutation on outcomes in patients with AML [3, 1519]. Prognostic effect is known to depend on certain biological factors as well as a combination of cytogenetics and other mutations such as those in FLT3 and NPM1[3, 6, 8].
Somatic mutations in IDH1/2 occur in 5–30% patients with AML and are commonly associated with nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations [9, 10]. Both the genes play a critical role in the citric acid cycle IDH1 in the cytoplasm and peroxisome and IDH2 in the mitochondria. Both IDH1 and IDH2 promote the conversion of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) that is associated with the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) to NADPH [8, 11, 20]. Mutations in IDH1 and IDH2 are heterozygous and occur in highly conserved arginine residues (IDH1 R132 and IDH2 R140/R172). Mutations at IDH2 R140 always result in the conversion of arginine to glutamine, whereas substitutions at IDH1 R132 and IDH2 R172 result in a wide range of amino acid replacements [12]. All point mutations in IDH1/2 lead to a gain of function, enabling the conversion of α-KG to 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) and oxidation of NADPH to NADP+. Furthermore, an increase in 2-HG-levels leads to the functional impairment of α-KG-dependent enzymes through competitive inhibition [13].
In contrast to the impact of DNMT3A mutations, the impact of IDH1/2 mutations on prognosis is not completely understood. It appears that prognosis may depend on specific patient populations and a combination with NPM1 mutations [2123].
The increasing evidence of high incidence particularly in cytogenetically normal AML and prognostic pertinence of DNMT3A and IDH1/2 mutations support the need to identify these mutations in routine diagnostic screening. Importantly, the presence of DNMT3A and IDH1/2 mutations may confer sensitivity to novel therapeutic approaches, including demethylating agents [24, 25].
The current available methods like direct sequencing are informative but time consuming and cost intensive. In this study, we validated the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based high resolution melt (HRM) assay for screening DNMT3A, IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in samples obtained from patients with AML at diagnosis and developed 2 rapid methods for detecting more common mutations, DNMT3A R882H and IDH2 R140Q. We evaluated the utility of endonuclease restriction-based detection method to identify mutations in DNMT3A and designed an amplification-refractory mutation system (ARMS) to detect mutations in IDH2. In addition we compared both the systems with the HRM assay for all the studied mutations.

Methods

Patient characteristics

Bone marrow (BM) samples from 230 patients with newly diagnosed AML were included in the study. All patients were treated at the University Clinic Charité, Campus Benjamin Franklin, from May 2000 to July 2013. Patient’s characteristics are summarised in the Additional file 1: Table S1. The male/female ratio of the study population was 116/114, and the median age was 57 years (range, 16–94 years). Diagnoses were established according to the WHO criteria [26]. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and the ethical guidelines of the Charite University School of Medicine, which approved this study.

DNA extraction

Mononuclear cells from BM aspirates were isolated using Ficoll density gradient centrifugation as described [27]. DNA was extracted using Allprep DNA/RNA mini kit (Qiagen) as per the manufacturer’s instructions.

ARMS analysis of IDH2-R140Q mutations

All primers were designed using Primer 3 Software (Additional file 2: Table S2). ARMS analysis was performed using 2 control primers flanking exon 23 and 2 allele-specific primers IDH2-RI and IDH2-FI that are complementary to the wild-type (wt) and mutated alleles, respectively. To enhance specificity, both the primers had an additional medium mismatch at the preliminary base. The PCR mixture and reaction conditions are specified in the Additional file 3: PCR reaction mixtures and conditions. The generated PCR products were analysed on a 1.5% agarose gel.

Endonuclease restriction analysis of DNMT3A-R882H mutations

PCR amplification for endonuclease restriction analysis was conducted using primers DNMT3A-ResF/R (Additional file 2: Table S2). PCR reaction mixture was prepared as that described for ARMS assay. The reaction conditions are specified in the Additional file 3. In all, 10 μl of the PCR product was directly applied for endonuclease treatment with 1 μl Fnu4HI and 5 μl of CutSmart Buffer (New England Biolabs). After incubation at 37°C for 15 min products were analysed on a 1.5% agarose gel containing 10% ethidium bromide (voltage 150 V).

HRM assay

The reaction mixture and HRM conditions are specified in the Additional file 3. The analysis was performed in a Rotor Gene 6000 Real-Time PCR Cycler (Qiagen). Samples, including a control sample for each mutation and wt allele, were analysed in duplicates. For DNMT3A and IDH2, the wt allele was used for normalisation, while for IDH1 R132C mutation control was used as the baseline. Normalisation regions for the optimal detection of DNMT3A were 82°C-83°C (leading range) and 87°C-88°C (trailing range), for the optimal detection of IDH1 were 73°C-74°C (leading range) and 82°C-83°C (trailing range) and for the optimal detection of IDH2 were 77°C-78°C (leading range) and 87°C-88°C (trailing range). Confidence threshold was set to 70% for all the genes.

DNA sequencing

All the primers used for sequencing are listed in the Additional file 2: Table S2. All PCR reaction conditions are specified in the Additional file 3. The obtained products were purified using the PCR Purification Kit (Qiagen), as described in the manual. Sequencing reaction was performed using Big Dye Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit (Applied Biosystems). The sequencing products were purified using DyeEx 2.0 Spin Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The purified products were diluted with 18 μl HiDi-Formamid (Applied Biosystems), incubated at 95°C for 3 min and chilled on ice for 3 min. Sequencing was performed using ABI310 Genetic Analyser (Applied Biosystems), and data were collected using ABI Prism 310 Data Collection Software.

Results and discussion

All the positive and negative controls used in this study were selected by Sanger sequencing of patients’ samples. The results obtained using endonuclease restriction, ARMS and HRM were verified with those obtained using Sanger sequencing to determine the specificity of the assays. Sensitivity was measured as the minimal percentage of mutated allele in a sample detected by the assay. The initial portion of mutation was determined using Sanger sequencing.

DNMT3A mutation analysis

Endonuclease restriction analysis identified DNMT3A R882H G>A mutations in 28 out of 230 patients with AML (12.2%) and HRM analysis identified 2 additional R882X G>C mutations (0.9%), which are consistent with the frequency published by Lin et al. [28]. The age of the patients ranged from 24 to 87 years (median, 58 years). Among these patients, 53% had a normal karyotype. None of the patients in the prognostic favourable group had DNMT3A mutations. Of 30 patients, 16 had FLT3 mutations.
Figure 1 provides a representative result of restriction analysis with 5 positive and 2 negative samples. Point mutation at R882H (GCCGC to GCCAC) led to the loss of one recognition site of Fnu4HI, thus creating a larger 289 bp fragment. Because of heterozygosity, the 190 bp wt fragment and the smaller 114 bp fragment are present in every sample. Sensitivity of the assay was analysed using serial dilutions of wt and DNMT3A R882H-mutated DNA (initial mutation ratio in Sanger sequencing was 59%, Figure 2.1). The fragment containing the mutation was explicitly apparent with a mutational content of 0.05%, indicating a very high sensitivity of the assay. In addition mutations in exon 23 of DNMT3A were detected using HRM analysis. Results of HRM analysis were plotted as a difference in the fluorescence of the tested sample versus that of a wt control (normalisation line), referred to as a temperature-shifted difference plot (Figure 3.1). Discrepancies between mutated and wt samples could also be observed in the melting plot profiles. Sample containing R882H mutation showed 2 peaks at 84.5°C and 85.6°C, whereas the wt samples showed only 1 peak at 85.7°C. Compared to the wt allele, R882X allele was slightly shifted to the left, with a melting temperature of 85.6°C (Figure 3.2). Sensitivity of the HRM assay was assessed similar to that of restriction analysis. The assay had high confidence (97%-99%) for the mutated allele up to a mutation ratio of 5.9% (Figure 2.2). Lower mutation ratios could not be assigned as positive and were identified as false negative with a confidence of 92%-98%. Thus our results indicated that HRM analysis had a lower sensitivity than that of endonuclease restriction analysis but had the benefit of identifying different mutations in 1 PCR reaction.

IDH2 mutation analysis

The mutational frequency of IDH2 R140Q G>A was 6.69% (16 out of 230 patients with AML), which was similar to the frequency published by Paschka et al. [23] and other studies [29, 30]. Most patients with AML with IDH2 mutations were older than 50 years and had de novo AML and a normal karyotype. Of 16 patients, 7 had an NPM1 mutation.
The ARMS analysis allowed differentiation between mutated and wt DNA of IDH2 through specific differences in the amplification properties of the reaction. In the presence of a mutation the PCR reaction generated 3 different fragments with sizes 613 bp (control band), 446 (mutation band) and 233 bp (wt band, Figure 4.1). No 446 bp mutation band was detected in the wt samples and results were confirmed by sequencing (Figure 4.2). In addition some faint unspecific bands of size ≥613 bp were detected. Given that the diagnostic approach was not handicapped, the assay was acceptable for further applications. HRM screening of IDH2 showed no additional mutations in our AML patient group. IDH2 amplification showed a bimodal melting profile with a smaller peak at 79.8°C and a bigger peak at 82.7°C. Differences in mutated and wt allele were visible during melting point analysis, because IDH2 R140Q mutations shifted to lower temperatures than those in wt allele (Figure 5). Sensitivity tests were performed as those described for DNMT3A. For the IDH2 allele, the sensitivities of ARMS and HRM analyses were the same, with a limitation at a mutational ratio of 2.25%. As shown in Figure 6.1 the mutation band at 446 bp was not present in dilutions with 2.25% and 0.45% mutated DNA. Furthermore, HRM analysis showed that dilutions from 45% to 4.5% were clearly positive with a confidence ranging from 77.68% to 98.41%, while the last 2 dilutions were false-negative, with a confidence of 82% to 94.39% (Figure 6.2).

IDH1 mutation analysis

An assay to detect specific mutations is not applicable because of the heterogeneity of IDH1 aberrations. Therefore, the HRM assay was evaluated for IDH1, as previously described by Patel et al. [30]. Mutated and wt IDH1 was distinguished through their melting profiles because mutated DNA had a melting point between 80.3°C and 80.5°C while wt IDH1 had a melting point of 81°C (Figure 7.1). However, the distinction between the different mutations of IDH1 was difficult with this analysis as well as with the differentiation plot normalised to the wt control (Figure 7.2). During this study we observed that the temperature-shifted difference plot normalised to R132S C>A control sample was the best to determine different IDH1 mutations (Figure 7.3). Thus, we performed sensitivity tests for G105 C>T and R132C C>T with normalisation to R132S C>A and for R132S C>A with normalisation to G105 C>T (Figure 8). HRM analysis showed sensitivity of 6%-7.8% for all three mutations. Using this method, we determined that 36 out of 230 (15.65%) patients with AML had IDH1 mutations. Of these 19 (8.3%) had G105 C>T, 11 (4.8%) had R132C C>T and 6 (2.6%) had R132S C>A; this frequency is consistent with the data published by Nomdedéu et al. [22, 29].

Combination of different methods is essential to identify DNMT3A and IDH1/2 mutations in routine laboratory analyses

Both the assays designed in this study for the detection of DNMT3A R882H and IDH2 R140Q mutations were completely compliant with Sanger sequencing and had a high specificity. No false-positive results were determined with HRM analysis. Two (0.9%) samples showed variations for DNMT3A but were subsequently determined as wt by endonuclease restriction and sequencing. IDH1 analysis with HRM showed that 6 (2.6%) samples had inaccuracies in melting profiles and hence were determined false negative with this method. Sequencing showed the presence of a R132C C>T mutation in this samples. IDH2 analysis showed no discrepancies with Sanger sequencing.
Compared to Sanger sequencing, HRM analysis represents a timesaving, cost-efficient and more sensitive method to screen mutations in patients with AML at diagnosis. However, an efficient application presumes the presence of specific mutations and wt control samples. Because of the lack of cell lines with DNMT3A, IDH2 and IDH1 mutations, controls have to be established by sequencing different patient samples. Therefore, an effective application of HRM depends on the identification of high amounts of good-quality control samples, availability of a sequencer and HRM competent real-time PCR cycler. In addition, some results obtained with HRM analysis are difficult to interpret because of the variations in the melting curve of 1 mutation and can lead to uncertain conclusions or false-negative results [31]. Because new studies indicate the prognostic significance of IDH1/2 and DNMT3A mutations, which affect the choice of therapy, a steady laboratory diagnosis is essential [10, 17, 18, 21, 22, 32]. We developed ARMS-PCR to identify IDH2 R140Q mutation and endonuclease restriction analysis to identify DNMT3A R882H mutations; both these methods are rapid and easy to use and interpret. Thus, these methods can be used to verify unclear results obtained using HRM analysis. In addition, these methods provide a possibility to identify the most common mutations in DNMT3A and IDH2 in laboratories that do not have HRM-competent real-time PCR cyclers at their disposal. Secondary endonuclease restriction has higher sensitivity than HRM analysis that allows earlier identification of mutations at relapse during follow-up analysis [33]. For future applications this assay could also be adapted to the quantitative PCR (qPCR) technique. The forward primer can be modified to amplify only the genomic region containing the restriction position that is lost in the mutated state, thus allowing the exclusion of wt and mutated alleles as well as the quantitative assessment of DNMT3A mutation. The main characteristics of all the methods analysed in this study are summarised in Table 1.
The measured sensitivities depend on assay conditions and equipment. For example, small amounts of non-specific amplicons and different salt or inhibitory concentrations can influence assay sensitivity [34, 35]. Therefore, each laboratory should validate the presented methods with their equipment before application. Both HRM analysis and ARMS-PCR had only low sensitivity, which possibly could lead to false-negative results. Therefore, low mutational ratios could be overlooked and these patients would receive an imprecise laboratory diagnostic report. Potential reduction of amplicon size for both HRM and ARMS analyses could optimise sensitivities [36]. Moreover, adaption of the qualitative endonuclease restriction assay to a quantitative assay could further increase sensitivity and provide objective measurements of mutated cells [37].
In the future, sensitivity limitations for screening DNMT3A and IDH1/2 mutations can be overcome by using allele-specific next-generation sequencing (NGS). This method provides high multiplexing possibilities together with high sensitivity and broad spectrum of detected mutations [38]. However NGS is associated with high costs, high hands-on time and high computational expertise. Because standardisation and validation of NGS can be challenging establishment of this method is an ongoing process in laboratory routine [39]. Conventional PCR-based methods are easy to standardise and validate and therefore could be used when NGS is being implemented in order to provide routine mutational screening of patients with AML.

Possible laboratory workflow for identifying DNMT3A and IDH1/2 mutations

Although Sanger sequencing is considered as the “gold standard” for identifying mutations, this method is time-consuming and cost-intensive in routine laboratory practice, because the diagnostic findings need to be available as fast as possible. Based on the findings of this study, we developed a laboratory workflow for identifying IDH1/2 and DNMT3A mutations in the first diagnosis and relapse without using of sequencing (Figure 9). HRM analysis should be the method of choice for differentiating between wt and all the analysed mutations in primary AML samples. In case of uncertainty results can be verified using the above presented methods. In addition, ARMS and endonuclease restriction provide a possibility to identify the most common IDH2 and DNMT3A mutations when no HRM-compatible real-time PCR cycler is available. Because of the multiplicity of IDH1 mutations, it was not possible to generate a valid method for analysing 1 specific mutation. For this reason HRM analysis is the best alternative to Sanger sequencing. After therapy, follow-up analysis should be chosen depending on the identified mutations at the first diagnosis. Because endonuclease restriction had higher sensitivity for R882H mutations, this method is more suitable for detecting low mutational ratio of known mutations in patients after therapy or relapse and progression of disease. Because of the ease of interpretation ARMS can also be used to identify IDH2 R140Q mutations at relapse or disease progression.

Conclusion

In summary, we generated highly specific, sensitive and rapid methods for identifying the most common mutations in IDH2 (R140Q) and DNMT3A (R882H), which can be used separately or in combination with HRM analysis to provide more reliable diagnostic results. All the developed methods were rapid, specific and easy to use and interpret. PCR-based methods are a useful tool for the routine laboratory identification of relevant prognostic mutations. We propose that early screening of mutations in patients with AML with normal karyotype could facilitate risk stratification and improve treatment opportunities.
