Resum

Relapse remains a major challenge in the clinical management of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is driven by rare therapy-resistant leukemia stem cells (LSCs) that reside in specific bone marrow niches. Hypoxia signaling maintains cells in a quiescent and metabolically relaxed state, desensitizing them to chemotherapy. This suggests the hypothesis that hypoxia contributes to the chemoresistance of AML-LSCs and may represent a therapeutic target to sensitize AML-LSCs to chemotherapy. Here, we identify HIFhigh and HIFlow specific AML subgroups (inv(16)/t(8;21) and MLLr, respectively) and provide a comprehensive single-cell expression atlas of 119,000 AML cells and AML-LSCs in paired diagnostic-relapse samples from these molecular subgroups. The HIF/hypoxia pathway signature is attenuated in AML-LSCs compared with more differentiated AML cells but is more expressed than in healthy hematopoietic cells. Importantly, chemical inhibition of HIF cooperates with standard-of-care chemotherapy to impair AML growth and to substantially eliminate AML-LSCs in vitro and in vivo. These findings support the HIF pathway in the stem cell-driven drug resistance of AML and unravel avenues for combinatorial targeted and chemotherapy-based approaches to specifically eliminate AML-LSCs.
