Highly Expressed CYBRD1 Associated with Glioma Recurrence Regulates the Immune Response of Glioma Cells to Interferon.

ABSTRACT: Invasiveness, resistance to treatment, and recurrence of gliomas are significant hurdles to successful treatment regimens. Data sets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), CGGA-RNAseq, and The Cancer Genome Atlas Glioblastoma Multiforme (TCGA-GBM) were analyzed, and an increased expression of Cytochrome B Reductase 1 (CYBRD1) was identified and could be associated with aggravated clinical outcomes. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis indicated that CYBRD1 co-expressed genes are enriched during an immune response. CYBRD1 overexpression in glioma cell lines is enhanced, whereas CYBRD1 silencing attenuated the aggressiveness of glioma cells. In IFN-α-treated glioma cells, IFN-α suppressed the viability and migratory ability and invasive ability of glioma cells, whereas CYBRD1 overexpression attenuated the antitumor effects of IFN-α. CYBRD1 could potentially serve as a biomarker for glioma recurrence. CYBRD1 overexpression enhances glioma cell aggressiveness and attenuates glioma cell response to IFN-α.

Highly expressed of SERPINA3 indicated poor prognosis and involved in immune suppression in glioma.

Project description:IntroductionThe prognosis of patients with glioma is dismal. It has been reported that Serpin peptidase inhibitor clade A member 3 (SERPINA3) is associated with the mobility and invasion of tumor cells. Our study was designed to explore the value of SERPINA3 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in the biological process, prognosis, and immune significance in glioma.MethodsWe analyzed the biological functions of SERPINA3 through data from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas databases. Differentially expressed genes and enrichment analysis were performed and correlations between SERPINA3 expression and immune cell infiltration were analyzed. Further, we validated the expression and the survival prediction role of SERPINA3 by using tissue microarrays and RNAscope in situ hybridization in 321 gliomas. The correlations between the expression and clinical-pathological parameters as well as other biomarkers were examined.ResultsUnivariate and multivariate regression both indicated that the level of SERPINA3 transcript represented an independent prognostic factor. High levels of SERPINA3 correlated with poor survival in patients with glioma. Expression of SERPINA3 mRNA was observed positively correlated with MCM6, IGFBP2, and FKBP10. Enrichment analysis showed SERPINA3 mainly enriched in immune-related terms and signaling pathways including MAPK, TNF, P53, PI3K-Akt, nuclear factor-κB. Immune infiltration analysis further declare the SERPINA3 expression negatively correlated with levels of Macrophages M1, native CD4+ T cell, monocytes, and Mast cell activated. And overexpression of SERPINA3 correlated with low CD4+ T cell infiltration in glioma tissues.ConclusionsSERPINA3 may play a key role in the biological process of glioma cells especially in immune suppression activities. SERPINA3 may serve as an independent survival prediction factor in glioma patients.

QKI-7 regulates expression of interferon-related genes in human astrocyte glioma cells.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The human QKI gene, called quaking homolog, KH domain RNA binding (mouse), is a candidate gene for schizophrenia encoding an RNA-binding protein. This gene was shown to be essential for myelination in oligodendrocytes. QKI is also highly expressed in astrocytes, but its function in these cells is not known. METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:We studied the effect of small interference RNA (siRNA)-mediated QKI depletion on global gene expression in human astrocyte glioma cells. Microarray measurements were confirmed with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The presence of QKI binding sites (QRE) was assessed by a bioinformatic approach. Viability and cell morphology were also studied. The most significant alteration after QKI silencing was the decreased expression of genes involved in interferon (IFN) induction (P = 6.3E-10), including IFIT1, IFIT2, MX1, MX2, G1P2, G1P3, GBP1 and IFIH1. All eight genes were down-regulated after silencing of the splice variant QKI-7, but were not affected by QKI-5 silencing. Interestingly, four of them were up-regulated after treatment with the antipsychotic agent haloperidol that also resulted in increased QKI-7 mRNA levels. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE:The coordinated expression of QKI-7 splice variant and IFN-related genes supports the idea that this particular splice variant has specific functions in astrocytes. Furthermore, a role of QKI-7 as a regulator of an inflammatory gene pathway in astrocytes is suggested. This hypothesis is well in line with growing experimental evidence on the role of inflammatory components in schizophrenia.

Glioma-Associated Stromal Cells Stimulate Glioma Malignancy by Regulating the Tumor Immune Microenvironment.

Project description:BackgroundThe glioma-associated stromal cell (GASC) is a recently identified type of cell in the glioma microenvironment and may be a prognostic marker for glioma. However, the potential mechanisms of GASCs in the glioma microenvironment remain largely unknown. In this work, we aimed to explore the mechanisms of GASCs in gliomas, particularly in high-grade gliomas (HGG).MethodsWe used glioma datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA). We utilized the Single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA) algorithm to discriminate between patients with high or low GASC composition. The xCELL and CIBERSORT algorithms were used to analyze the composition of stromal cells and immune cells. Risk score and a nomogram model were constructed for prognostic prediction of glioma.ResultsWe observed for the first time that the levels of M2 macrophages and immune checkpoints (PD-1, PD-L1, PD-L2, TIM3, Galectin-9, CTLA-4, CD80, CD86, CD155, and CIITA) were significantly higher in the high GASC group and showed positive correlation with the GASC score in all glioma population and the HGG population. Copy number variations of DR3 and CIITA were higher in the high-GASC group. THY1, one of the GASC markers, exhibited lower methylation in the high GASC group. The constructed risk score was an independent predictor of glioma prognostics. Finally, a credible nomogram based on the risk score was established.ConclusionsGASCs stimulate glioma malignancy through the M2 macrophage, and are associated with the level of immune checkpoints in the glioma microenvironment. The methylation of THY1 could be used as prognostic indicator and treatment target for glioma. However, further studies are required to verify these findings.

Interferon-? Modulates the Innate Immune Response against Glioblastoma Initiating Cells.

Project description:Immunotherapy targeting glioblastoma initiating cells (GIC) is considered a promising strategy. However, GIC are prone to evade immune response and there is a need for potent adjuvants. IFN-? might enhance the immune response and here we define its net effect on the innate immunogenicity of GIC. The transcriptomes of GIC treated with IFN-? and controls were assessed by microarray-based expression profiling for altered expression of immune regulatory genes. Several genes involved in adaptive and innate immune responses were regulated by IFN-?. We validated these results using reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and flow cytometry for corresponding protein levels. The up-regulation of the NK cell inhibitory molecules HLA-E and MHC class I was balanced by immune stimulating effects including the up-regulation of nectin-2. In 3 out of 5 GIC lines tested we found a net immune stimulating effect of IFN-? in cytotoxicity assays using NKL cells as effectors. IFN-? therefore warrants further investigation as an adjuvant for immunotherapy targeting GIC.

Fas-Associated Factor 1 Negatively Regulates the Antiviral Immune Response by Inhibiting Translocation of Interferon Regulatory Factor 3 to the Nucleus.

Project description:This study is designed to examine the cellular functions of human Fas-associated factor 1 (FAF1) containing multiple ubiquitin-related domains. Microarray analyses revealed that interferon-stimulated genes related to the antiviral response are significantly increased in FAF1-knockdown HeLa cells. Silencing FAF1 enhanced the poly(I·C)- and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-induced production of type I interferons (IFNs), the target genes of interferon regulator factor 3 (IRF3). IRF3 is a key transcription factor in IFN-? signaling responsible for the host innate immune response. This study also found that FAF1 and IRF3 physically associate with IPO5/importin-?3 and that overexpression of FAF1 reduces the interaction between IRF3 and IPO5/importin-?3. These findings suggest that FAF1 negatively regulates IRF3-mediated IFN-? production and the antiviral innate immune response by regulating nuclear translocation of IRF3. We conclude that FAF1 plays a novel role in negatively regulating virus-induced IFN-? production and the antiviral response by inhibiting the translocation of active, phosphorylated IRF3 from the cytosol to the nucleus.

When Immune Cells Turn Bad-Tumor-Associated Microglia/Macrophages in Glioma.

Project description:As a substantial part of the brain tumor microenvironment (TME), glioma-associated microglia/macrophages (GAMs) have an emerging role in tumor progression and in controlling anti-tumor immune responses. We review challenges and improvements of cell models and highlight the contribution of this highly plastic cell population to an immunosuppressive TME, besides their well-known functional role regarding glioma cell invasion and angiogenesis. Finally, we summarize first therapeutic interventions to target GAMs and their effect on the immunobiology of gliomas, focusing on their interaction with T cells.

Interferon-gamma-responsive nonhematopoietic cells regulate the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in humans and in mice requires interferon gamma (IFN-gamma). Whereas IFN-gamma has been studied extensively for its effects on macrophages in tuberculosis, we determined that protective immunity to tuberculosis also requires IFN-gamma-responsive nonhematopoietic cells. Bone marrow chimeric mice with IFN-gamma-unresponsive lung epithelial and endothelial cells exhibited earlier mortality and higher bacterial burdens than control mice, underexpressed indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (Ido1) in lung endothelium and epithelium, and overexpressed interleukin-17 (IL-17) with massive neutrophilic inflammation in the lungs. We also found that the products of IDO catabolism of tryptophan selectively inhibit IL-17 production by Th17 cells, by inhibiting the action of IL-23. These results reveal a previously unsuspected role for IFN-gamma responsiveness in nonhematopoietic cells in regulation of immunity to M. tuberculosis and illustrate the role of IDO in the inhibition of Th17 cell responses.

Proprotein convertase furin is preferentially expressed in T helper 1 cells and regulates interferon gamma.

Project description:Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a major inducer of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and the principal mediator of T helper 1 (Th1) differentiation. To identify IL-12-regulated genes, which might contribute to Th1 differentiation and IFNG regulation, we employed microarray analysis. Surprisingly, a ubiquitously expressed proprotein convertase (PC), furin, was one of the most consistently IL-12-induced genes in T cells, and among PCs was the only one regulated by this cytokine. Furin was preferentially expressed in differentiated Th1 cells in a Stat4-dependent manner. Expression of furin enhanced IFN-gamma secretion, whereas inhibition of furin interfered with IFN-gamma production. Thus, we conclude that IL-12 induction of furin might represent a new aspect of IFN-gamma regulation and control of Th1 differentiation.

Interferon-? sensitivity of tumor cells correlates with poor response to VA7 virotherapy in mouse glioma models.

Project description:In our recent study, replicative alphaviral vector VA7 was found to be effective against orthotopic human U87-glioma xenografts in an athymic mouse model eradicating the tumors with single intravenous (i.v.) injection. Here, we tested the efficacy of VA7 in immunocompetent orthotopic GL261 and CT-2A glioma models of C57BL/6 mouse in vivo. The cell lines were susceptible to VA7 infection in vitro, but GL261 infection was highly restricted in confluent cell cultures, and mouse interferon-? (IFN?) pretreatment prevented the replication of VA7 in both cell lines. When mice bearing orthotopic GL261 or CT-2A tumors were administered neurotropic VA7, either i.v. or intracranially (i.c.), the vector was unable to infect the tumor and no survival benefit was achieved. Pretreatments with immunosuppressive cyclophosphamide (CPA) and rapamycin markedly lowered serum-neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) but had no effect on tumor infection or survival. Intracranial GL261 tumors were refractory also in athymic C57BL/6 mice, which have serious defects in their adaptive immunity. Implanted VA7-infected GL261 cells formed tumors with only slightly delayed kinetics and without improving survival thus excluding the participation of physical barriers and indicating robust host IFN action. Mouse and human IFN? do not seem be species cross-reactive, which might limit the translational relevance of xenograft models in oncolytic virotherapy.
