Primary Astrocytic Tumours and Paired Recurrences have Similar Biological Features in IDH1, TP53 and TERTp Mutation and MGMT, ATRX Loss.

ABSTRACT: Astrocytic tumours are the most common type of primary malignant brain tumour. Most astrocytic tumours will recur at some point after surgery. Currently, the combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy does not prevent the recurrence of astrocytic tumours. In this study, we investigated the consistency in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1), tumour protein p53 (TP53) and telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter (TERTp) mutations during astrocytic tumour recurrence. We also evaluated the protein loss of O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation, X-linked (ATRX) during disease recurrence. We then determined the prognostic significance of these findings in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression models. Our results showed that in most cases, IDH1, TP53 and TERTp mutation status and MGMT and ATRX protein expression levels were stable during recurrence, which may indicate that these alterations occurred early in astrocytic tumour development. Furthermore, in IDH1 wild type group, the patients who were negative for MGMT and had a low Ki67 index showed a longer PFS. Therefore, we suggest that IDH1 mutation combined with MGMT expression level and Ki67 index might be an effective biomarker panel for evaluating the PFS of patients with astrocytic tumours.

Project description:BackgroundATRX inactivation occurs with IDH1R132H and p53 mutations in over 80% of Grades II/III astrocytomas. It is believed that ATRX loss contributes to oncogenesis by dysregulating epigenetic and telomere mechanisms but effects on anti-glioma immunity have not been explored. This paper examines how ATRX loss contributes to the malignant and immunosuppressive phenotypes of IDH1R132H/p53mut glioma cells and xenografts.MethodsIsogenic astrocytoma cells (+/-IDH1R132H/+/-ATRXloss) were established in p53mut astrocytoma cell lines using lentivirus encoding doxycycline-inducible IDH1R132H, ATRX shRNA, or Lenti-CRISPR/Cas9 ATRX. Effects of IDH1R132H+/-ATRXloss on cell migration, growth, DNA repair, and tumorigenicity were evaluated by clonal growth, transwell and scratch assays, MTT, immunofluorence and immunoblotting assays, and xenograft growth. Effects on the expression and function of modulators of the immune microenvironment were quantified by qRT-PCR, immunoblot, T-cell function, macrophage polarization, and flow cytometry assays. Pharmacologic inhibitors were used to examine epigenetic drivers of the immunosuppressive transcriptome of IDH1R132H/p53mut/ATRXloss cells.ResultsAdding ATRX loss to the IDH1R132H/p53mut background promoted astrocytoma cell aggressiveness, induced expression of BET proteins BRD3/4 and an immune-suppressive transcriptome consisting of up-regulated immune checkpoints (e.g., PD-L1, PD-L2) and altered cytokine/chemokine profiles (e.g., IL33, CXCL8, CSF2, IL6, CXCL9). ATRX loss enhanced the capacity of IDH1R132H/p53mut cells to induce T-cell apoptosis, tumorigenic/anti-inflammatory macrophage polarization and Treg infiltration. The transcriptional and biological immune-suppressive responses to ATRX loss were enhanced by temozolomide and radiation and abrogated by pharmacologic BET inhibition.ConclusionsATRX loss activates a BRD-dependent immune-suppressive transcriptome and immune escape mechanism in IDH1R132H/p53mut astrocytoma cells.
