Metabolic Landscape of a Genetically Engineered Mouse Model of IDH1 Mutant Glioma.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the metabolic reprogramming of aggressive brain tumors has potential applications for therapeutics as well as imaging biomarkers. However, little is known about the nutrient requirements of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutant gliomas. The IDH1 mutation involves the acquisition of a neomorphic enzymatic activity which generates D-2-hydroxyglutarate from α-ketoglutarate. In order to gain insight into the metabolism of these malignant brain tumors, we conducted metabolic profiling of the orthotopic tumor and the contralateral regions for the mouse model of IDH1 mutant glioma; as well as to examine the utilization of glucose and glutamine in supplying major metabolic pathways such as glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid (TCA). We also revealed that the main substrate of 2-hydroxyglutarate is glutamine in this model, and how this re-routing impairs its utilization in the TCA. Our 13C tracing analysis, along with hyperpolarized magnetic resonance experiments, revealed an active glycolytic pathway similar in both regions (tumor and contralateral) of the brain. Therefore, we describe the reprogramming of the central carbon metabolism associated with the IDH1 mutation in a genetically engineered mouse model which reflects the tumor biology encountered in glioma patients.

Project description:Astrocytomas are the most common subtype of brain tumors and no curative treatment exist. Longitudinal assessment of patients, usually via Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), is crucial since tumor progression may occur earlier than clinical progression. MRI usually provides a means for monitoring the disease, but it only informs about the structural changes of the tumor, while molecular changes can occur as a treatment response without any MRI-visible change. Radiotherapy (RT) is routinely performed following surgery as part of the standard of care in astrocytomas, that can also include chemotherapy involving temozolomide. Monitoring the response to RT is a key factor for the management of patients. Herein, we provide plasma and tissue metabolic biomarkers of treatment response in a mouse model of astrocytoma that was subjected to radiotherapy. Plasma metabolic profiles acquired over time by Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) were subjected to multivariate empirical Bayes time-series analysis (MEBA) and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) assessment including Random Forest as the classification strategy. These analyses revealed a variation of the plasma metabolome in those mice that underwent radiotherapy compared to controls; specifically, fumarate was the best discriminatory feature. Additionally, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)-based 13C-tracing experiments were performed at end-point utilizing [U-13C]-Glutamine to investigate its fate in the tumor and contralateral tissues. Irradiated mice displayed lower levels of glycolytic metabolites (e.g. phosphoenolpyruvate) in tumor tissue, and a higher flux of glutamine towards succinate was observed in the radiation cohort. The plasma biomarkers provided herein could be validated in the clinic, thereby improving the assessment of brain tumor patients throughout radiotherapy. Moreover, the metabolic rewiring associated to radiotherapy in tumor tissue could lead to potential metabolic imaging approaches for monitoring treatment using blood draws.
