Purpose: Clonal malignant T lymphocytes constitute only a fraction of T cells in mycosis fungoides skin tumors and in the leukemic blood of Sézary syndrome, the classic types of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. However, lack of markers specific for malignant lymphocytes prevents distinguishing them from benign T cells, thus delaying diagnosis and the development of targeted treatments. Here we applied single-cell methods to assess the transcriptional profiles of both malignant T-cell clones and reactive T lymphocytes directly in mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome patient samples. Experimental design: Single-cell RNA sequencing was used to profile the T-cell immune repertoire simultaneously with gene expression in CD3+ lymphocytes from mycosis fungoides and healthy skin biopsies as well as from Sézary syndrome and control blood samples. Transcriptional data were validated in additional advanced-stage mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome skin and blood samples by immunofluorescence microscopy. Results: Several nonoverlapping clonotypes are expanded in the skin and blood of individual advanced-stage mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome patient samples, including a dominant malignant clone as well as additional minor malignant and reactive clones. While we detected upregulation of patient-specific as well as mycosis fungoides- and Sézary syndrome-specific oncogenic pathways within individual malignant clones, we also detected upregulation of several common pathways that included genes associated with cancer cell metabolism, cell-cycle regulation, de novo nucleotide biosynthesis, and invasion. Conclusions: Our analysis unveils new insights into mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome pathogenesis by providing an unprecedented report of the transcriptional profile of malignant T-cell clones in the skin and blood of individual patients and offers novel prospective targets for personalized therapy.
