The nature of hemopoietic progenitors subject to leukemic transformation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has not been clearly defined. To address this issue, we have used DNase I hypersensitivity assays to study the chromatin structure surrounding the T-lineage-affiliated CD2 gene in the acute promyelocytic subtype of AML (APL). Upstream and downstream flanking regions of CD2 were found to be hypersensitive to DNase I in primary APL blasts, with an identical pattern of hypersensitive sites to those detected in cells of T-lineage. All of the sites were confirmed to be inaccessible to DNase I in B-lineage leukemia cells. The demonstration of T-cell-associated chromatin features in primary APL blasts has implications for the origin of APL that may arise in more primitive progenitors than previously considered to be the case.
