Supplementary Figure 1 Isolation and characterization of persister T-ALL cells.
a. Proliferation over time is shown for naive DND-41 T-ALL cells exposed to 1 μM GSI. b. NOTCH1 target gene expression is shown for naive cells (N), persister cells in 1 μM GSI (P), reversed persister cells removed from GSI for 2 weeks (Rev) and reversed cells re-exposed to 1 μM GSI for 5 d (Rev tx) (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). c. DTX1 and HP1γ gene expression is shown for naive cells 4 weeks after transfection with dominant-negative mastermind-like 1 (DN-MAML) (3 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). d. DTX1 and HP1γ gene expression is shown for naive and persister cells and for persister cells after GSI washout at the indicated time points (3 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). e. Protein blots for total, phosphorylated PTEN (pPTEN) and tubulin in naive and persister cells (left). Persister cells show decreased PTEN activity. Proliferation of naive and persister cells treated with the indicated doses of the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 for 6 d (right; 4 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). f. Proliferation of naive and persister cells treated with the indicated doses of doxorubicin (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.) and vorinostat (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.) for 6 d. (Data shown are for DND-41 cells.)
Supplementary Figure 2 Altered signaling and drug sensitivities in KOPT-K1 persister cells.
a. Proliferation of naive and persister KOPT-K1 T-ALL cells treated with the indicated doses of NOTCH inhibitor for 6 d (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). b. Protein blot shows activated intracellular NOTCH1 (ICN1) and MYC levels in naive KOPT-K1 cells (N), short-term treated cells (ST, 5 d with 1 μM GSI), persister cells in 1 μM GSI (P), reversed persister cells removed from GSI for 2 weeks (Rev) and reversed cells re-exposed to GSI (Rev tx, 5 d). c. Protein blots show phospho-mTOR (p2481), total mTOR and tubulin in naive (N) and persister (P) KOPT-K1 cells (left). Proliferation of naive and persister cells treated with the indicated concentrations of rapamycin for 9 d is shown to the right (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). d. Protein blots for total, phosphorylated PTEN (pPTEN) and tubulin in naive and persister KOPT-K1 cells (left). Proliferation of naive and persister cells treated with the indicated doses of the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 for 9 d (right; 2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). e. Proliferation of naive and persister cells treated with the indicated doses of doxorubicin, vorinostat and JQ1 for 6 d (2–3 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). These data confirm that KOPT-K1 cells give rise to a persister phenotype similar to DND-41 cells (Fig. 1).
Supplementary Figure 3 Chromatin state alterations in KOPT-K1 persister cells.
a. Forward scatter analysis indicates size distributions of naive (blue) and persister (red) KOPT-K1 T-ALL cells. b. Size of naive (left) and persister (right) KOPT-K1 cell nuclei is shown by DAPI stain and quantified in box plot (right; naive n = 316, persister n = 396; P value < 1 × 10−4). c,d. Protein blots for HP1γ (c) and H3K27ac and total H3 (d) in naive (N) and persister (P) KOPT-K1 cells. e. Bar plot indicates relative levels of repressive histone modifications per ELISA of bulk histones from naive, short-term treated (3 d) and persister cells (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d., *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). f. BRD4 expression is shown for naive (N), short-term treated (ST, 5 d) and persister (P) KOPT-K1 cells. These data show that persister KOPT-K1 cells exhibit chromatin state changes similar to DND-41 cells (Fig. 2). g. Gel electrophoresis images depict size distribution of DNA after MNase digestion of chromatin from naive (N) or persister (P) KOPT-K1 cells (left). Plot depicts size distribution of mononucleosomal DNA fragments after MNase digestion, as measured by capillary electrophoresis (right). Protected regions are larger in persister compared to naive cells, consistent with greater chromatin compaction. h. Normalized H3K27me3 signal distribution over euchromatic H3K4me1-marked loci in naive and persister KOPT-K1 cells (P < 1 × 10−15). i. DTX1, HP1γ, BRD4 and BCL2 expression are shown for KOPT-K1 cells 4 weeks post-transfection with DN-MAML or empty vector (EV), (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d., *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001). These data confirm that KOPT-K1 persister cells adopt an altered chromatin state similar to DND-41 persister cells (Fig. 2).
Supplementary Figure 4 Persister T-ALL cells have increased dependency on BRD4.
a. Protein blots show BRD4 expression after knockdown with lentiviral shRNA in naive and persister DND-41 cells after 5 d of puromycin selection (2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). b. Proliferative response of naive and persister cells infected with BRD4 or control hairpins after 8 d of puromycin selection. c. Proliferative response of naive and persister cells after 6 d of treatment with inactive JQ1 enantiomer (3 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.).
Supplementary Figure 5 BRD4 binds enhancers near key regulatory genes in DND-41 T-ALL cells.
a. Heat map shows enrichment signals for BRD4, H3K27ac and H3K4me1 over 19,386 H3K4me1-marked distal sites (rows; 10-kb regions, centered on H3K4me1 peaks, ranked by overall signal intensities of BRD4 and H3K27ac) in DND-41 persister cells. b. Tracks show BRD4 binding and H3K36me3 enrichment (marking transcribed regions) over the CDK6 and ETV6 loci, both of which contain BRD4-bound superenhancers. c. Tracks show BRD4 binding and H3K27ac enrichment across the DTX1 (left) and LGALS9 (right) loci in naive and persister DND-41 cells. d. Tracks show BRD4 binding and H3K36me3 enrichment across the BCL2 locus in naive and persister DND-41 cells (left). BRD4 enrichment by ChIP-qPCR over BRD4 peaks in the BCL2 locus in naive and persister DND-41 cells (right; 2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). e. Protein blots show BCL2 expression after lentiviral infection with empty vector (EV) or BCL2 ORF in persister cells. f. Tracks show BRD4 binding and H3K36me3 enrichment across the MYC locus in naive and persister DND-41 cells (left). BRD4 enrichment by ChIP-qPCR over BRD4 peaks in the MYC locus in naive and persister DND-41 cells (right; 2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). g. MYC expression in persister cells infected with empty vector (EV) or MYC-overexpressing retrovirus (MYC; 2 replicates, error bars reflect s.d.). (Data shown are for DND-41 cells; data for KOPT-K1 cells are shown in Figure 3.)
Supplementary Figure 6 Proposed model for the increased BRD4 dependency in persister cells.
Enhancer elements with transcription factor (TF) binding, acetylated chromatin and BRD4 are flanked by compact chromatin. The tendency of persister cell chromatin (right) for greater compaction renders enhancers more dependent on BRD4 for their maintenance.
Supplementary Figure 7 Effects of combination therapy targeting NOTCH and BRD4 in vivo.
a. Bioluminescence readings in NSG mice engrafted with KOPT-K1 T-ALL cells expressing luciferase that were treated with vehicle, short-term DBZ (3 doses) or long-term DBZ (with dosing every other day; short-term and vehicle treated mice sacrificed after 5 d (3 doses DBZ), long-term treated mice after 3 weeks (11 doses DBZ); Online Methods). Data are averaged from 5 mice per group, error bars reflect s.d. b. Protein blots show intracellular NOTCH1 (ICN1), MYC, PTEN and actin control in three primary T-ALL samples (T-ALL-x-9, T-ALL-x-11 and T-ALL-x-14). c. Bar plot indicates relative levels of H3K27me3 per ELISA on bulk histones from vehicle (Veh) or GSI-treated mice engrafted with T-ALL-x-9 after 3 weeks of treatment (4 mice per group with 2 replicates each, error bars reflect s.d., *P < 0.05).
