Abstract During cell death, nucleosomes, the basic structural unit of chromatin, are released into the blood stream and elevated levels have been found in the plasma of patients with solid cancers. In this study, we demonstrate an increase in cell free circulating H3.1-nucleosomes levels in plasma samples from patients with hematological malignancy, non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), relative to healthy donors. As histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) of circulating nucleosomes are described as potential biomarkers of various solid cancers, we investigated the epigenetic profile of nucleosomes from NHL patients following nucleosome enrichment (Nu.Q® capture) combined with mass spectrometry. Eight histones PTMs, including the acetylation of histone H3 at lysine 9, 14 and 18 as well as the methylation state of histone H3 at lysine 9, 27 and 36, were identified at a higher level in the plasma of NHL patients compared to healthy donors. These results were confirmed in a larger clinical cohort by immunoassay. Subsequently, the temporal profile of these histone PTMs in NHL patients undergoing treatment course highlighted the potential use of these new biomarkers to monitor treatment response and/or disease progression. Our results substantiate that levels of H3.1-nucleosomes are particularly elevated in NHL patients and may be a useful diagnostic tool. Moreover, our work emphasizes the crucial roles of the epigenetic marks present on circulating nucleosomes to detect and monitor tumor progression and/or treatment response of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. |
