Basic characteristics of glioma stem cell and human glioblastoma

ABSTRACT: Glioma stem cells (GSCs) have been identified in glioma tissues and suggested to play important roles in the tumorigenesis of glioblastoma multiform (GBM). We established a novel cellular bioinformative pipeline that consisted of principal component analysis (PCA) with factor loading, intracellular pathway analysis, and immunopathway analysis and attempted to clarify the differences in gene expression profiles comprehensively among GSCs, a glioma cell line (U251), and a human GBM tissue (hGBM). To this end, we extracted total RNAs from the GSCs, U251, and the hGBM, performed microarray, and applied the data to the bioinformatics analyses described above. As the results, PCA clearly distinguished the three groups. Moreover, the second principal component (PC2) distinguished the GSCs from the hGBM and U251; it reflected the characteristics of stemness. The factor loading for PC2 suggested MYCN, DPP4, and, MIF as contributing factors to the stemness of GSCs. We clarify the similarities and differences among samples such as the GSCs, U251, and hGBM.

Glioma stem cell treatment with MELK-signaling inhibitors

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly lethal brain tumor. Due to resistance to current therapies, patient prognosis remains poor and development of novel and effective GBM therapy is crucial. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) have gained attention as therapeutic target in GBM due to their relative resistance to current therapies and potent tumor-initiating ability. Recent studies including our own identified that the mitotic kinase, maternal embryonic leucine-zipper kinase (MELK), is highly expressed in GBM tissues, specifically in GSCs, and its expression is inversely correlated with the post-surgical survival period of GBM patients. In addition, patient-derived GSCs depend on MELK for their survival and growth both in vitro and in vivo. Here, we provide evidence that the kinase activity of MELK is essential for the action of MELK in GSCs and vital for GBM growth. We utilized in silico structure-based analysis for protein-compound interaction to predict that a recently identified small molecule, Compound 1 (C1), binds to the kinase-active site of MELK protein and eliminates MELK kinase activity in nanomolar concentrations. When treated with C1, GSCs undergo mitotic arrest and subsequent cellular apoptosis in vitro, a phenotype identical to that observed using MELK shRNA-mediated knockdown. C1 treatment strongly induces tumor cell apoptosis in slice cultures of GBM surgical specimens and attenuates growth of mouse intracranial tumors derived from GSCs in a dose-dependent manner. Lastly, C1 treatment sensitizes GSCs to radiation treatment. Collectively, these data indicate that targeting MELK kinase activity is a promising approach to attenuate GBM growth by eliminating GSCs in tumors.

Gene expression data of GBM146 and GBM157 at day0, 7, 30 after serum exposure

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is a lethal brain cancer composed of heterogeneous cellular populations including glioma stem cells (GSCs) and their progeny differentiated non-stem glioma cells (NSGCs). Although accumulating evidence points out the significance of GSCs for tumour initiation and propagation, the roles of NSGCs remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that, when patient-derived GSCs in GBM tumours undergo differentiation with diminished telomerase activity and shortened telomeres, they subsequently become senescent phenotype, thereby secreting angiogenesis-related proteins, including vascular endothelial growth factors. Interestingly, these secreted factors from senescent NSGCs promote proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and tumorigenic potentials of GSCs in immunocompromised mice. These experimental data are likely clinically-relevant, since immunohistochemistry of both patient tumours of GBM and the patient GSC-derived mouse xenografted tumours detected tumour cells that express a set of markers for the senescence phenotype. Collectively, our data suggest that the inter-cellular signals from senescent NSGCs promote GBM tumour angiogenesis thereby increasing malignant progression of GBM. We monitored gene expression profiling in GSC, differentiated NSGC (GSC at day7 after serum exposure), and senescent NSGC (GSC at day30 after serum exposure) of GBM146 and GBM157.

A Proneural to Mesenchymal Transition Mediated by NFkB Promotes Radiation Resistance in Glioblastoma (part 1)

Project description:SUMMARY Despite numerous genome-wide association studies involving glioblastoma (GBM), few therapeutic targets have been identified for this disease. Using patient derived glioma sphere cultures (GSCs), we have found that a subset of the proneural (PN) GSCs undergo transition to a mesenchymal (MES) state in a TNFa/NFkB dependent manner with an associated enrichment of CD44 sub-populations and radio-resistant phenotypes. To the contrary, MES GSCs exhibit constitutive NFkB activation, CD44 enrichment and radio-resistance. Patients whose tumors exhibit a higher MES metagene, increased expression of CD44, or activated NFkB were associated with poor radiation response and shorter survival. Our results indicate that NFkB activation mediated MES differentiation and radiation resistance presents an attractive therapeutic target for GBM. SIGNIFICANCE In this study, we show plasticity between the proneural (PN) and mesenchymal (MES) transcriptome signatures observed in glioblastoma (GBM). Specifically, we show that PN glioma sphere cultures (GSCs) can be induced to a MES state with an associated enrichment of CD44 expressing cells and a gain of radio-resistance, which we implicate as NFkB- dependent. Newly diagnosed GBM samples show a direct correlation between radiation response, higher MES metagene, CD44 expression, and NFkB activation. This correlation is also observed in the subset of GBM samples that do not exhibit IDH1 mutation, a favorable prognostic marker. Our results uncover a previously unknown link between subtype plasticity that is regulated by NFkB. Inhibition of NFkB activation can directly impact radio-resistance and presents an attractive therapeutic target for GBM. Gene expression data for 17 isolated Glioma Stem Cells

Genome-wide methylomic and transcriptomic analyses identify subtype-specific epigenetic signatures commonly dysregulated in GBM and GSCs

Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation and trancription profiling of different subtypes in GBM (TCGA) and glioma stem cells (GSCs) were carried out using Illumina BeadChip HumanMethylation 450K array (450K array) to analyse over 485K CpG sites accross each samples. 450K array data for 94 GBM samples comprising 4 different subtypes i.e. Proneural (PN), Mesenchymal (MES), Classical (CL) and Neural (N) were used for GBM analysis. Similarly, 450K array for 23 GSCs and 1NHA, RNA seq for 29 GSCs and affimetrix microarray gene expression array for 12 GSCs were used for GBM data analyses.

POSTN secreted from GSCs promotes GSC self-renewal and tumor growth via activation of the αVβ3/PI3K/AKT/β-catenin/FOSL1 pathway [GSCs_CHIP-seq]

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM), classified as a grade 4 glioma, is the most prevalent intrinsic malignancy of the central nervous system. Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) are small populations of GBM cells with self-renewal and multilineage differentiation capabilities and are considered responsible for the tumorigenesis and development of GBM. GSCs also exhibit radiation resistance, chemoresistance, and angiogenic and invasive properties, which are correlated with poor outcomes in GBM patients. Therefore, targeting GSCs constitutes a promising approach for treating GBM patients. Our findings revealed that POSTN secreted from GSCs promotes GSC self-renewal and tumor growth via activation of the αVβ3/PI3K/AKT/β-catenin/FOSL1 pathway.

Functional marker in glioblastoma

Project description:To identify receptors and pathways active in glioblastoma (GBM) stem like cells (GSCs), we generated and screened thousands of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for preferential binding to primary cultures enriched in GSCs. This led to the identification of the integrin alpha 7 (ITGA7) as a major laminin receptor in GSCs and in primary high-grade glioma specimens. Analyses of mRNA profiles in comprehensive datasets revealed that high ITGA7 expression was negatively correlated with survival of patients with both low- and high-grade glioma. In vitro and in vivo analyses demonstrated a key biological function of ITGA7 in growth and invasion of GSCs. In addition, we showed that targeting ITGA7 by RNAi or blocking mAbs impaired laminin-induced signaling and led to a significant delay of tumor engraftment and strong reduction in size and invasion. Our data underline the potential value of ITGA7 as glioma biomarker and therapeutic target.

Disruption of DNA Repair and Survival Pathways through Heat Shock Protein inhibition by Onalespib to Sensitize Malignant Gliomas to Chemoradiation therapy

Project description:Purpose: Proficient DNA repair by homologous recombination (HR) facilitates resistance to chemo-radiation in glioma stem cells (GSCs). We evaluated whether compromising HR by targeting HSP90, a molecular chaperone required for the function of key HR proteins, using onalespib, a long-acting, brain-penetrant HSP90 inhibitor, would sensitize high-grade gliomas to chemo-radiation in vitro and in vivoExperimental Design: The ability of onalespib to deplete HR client proteins, impair HR repair capacity, and sensitize GBM to chemo-radiation was evaluated in vitro in GSCs, and in vivo using zebrafish and mouse intracranial glioma xenograft models. The effects of HSP90 inhibition on the transcriptome and cytoplasmic proteins was assessed in GSCs and in ex vivo organotypic human glioma slice cultures.Results: Treatment with onalespib depleted CHK1 and RAD51, two key proteins of the HR pathway, and attenuated HR repair, sensitizing GSCs to the combination of radiation and temozolomide (TMZ). HSP90 inhibition reprogrammed the transcriptome of GSCs and broadly altered expression of cytoplasmic proteins including known and novel client proteins relevant to GSCs. The combination of onalespib with radiation and TMZ extended survival in a zebra fish and a mouse xenograft model of GBM compared to the standard of care (radiation and TMZ) or onalespib with radiation.Conclusions: The results of this study demonstrate that targeting HR by HSP90 inhibition sensitizes GSCs to radiation and chemotherapy and extends survival in zebrafish and mouse intracranial models of GBM. These results provide a preclinical rationale for assessment of HSP90 inhibitors in combination with chemoradiation in GBM patients.
