Polycomb-mediated repression of EphrinA5 promotes growth and invasion of glioblastoma

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and most aggressive intrinsic brain tumour in adults. Integrated transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of glioblastoma initiating cells (GIC) in a mouse model uncovered a novel epigenetic regulation of EfnA5. In this model, Bmi1 enhances H3K27me3 at the EfnA5 locus and reinforces repression of selected target genes in a cellular context dependent fashion. EfnA5 mediate Bmi1-dependent proliferation and invasion in vitro and tumour formation in an allograft model. Importantly, we show that this novel Polycomb feed-forward loop is also active in human GIC and we provide preclinical evidence of druggability of EFNA5 in GBM xenografts overexpressing BMI1.

Elucidation of the BMI1 interactome identifies novel regulatory roles in glioblastoma

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive intrinsic brain tumour in adults. Epigenetic mechanisms controlling normal brain development are often dysregulated in GBM. Among these, BMI1, a structural component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), which promotes the H2AK119ub catalytic activity of Ring1B, is upregulated in GBM and its tumorigenic role has been shown in vitro and in vivo. Here, we have used protein and chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry (MS) analysis to elucidate the protein composition of PRC1 in GBM and CRISPR/dCAS9-mediated modulation of BMI1 to assess its influence on protein interactions. We show that while well-established BMI1 functions such as control of cell proliferation and cell adhesion are PRC1-dependent, novel regulatory functions in mRNA splicing and cholesterol transport are PRC1 independent and may represent novel targetable mechanisms in GBM.

Microglia promote glioblastoma growth via mTOR-mediated immunosuppressive conditioning of the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Tumor-associated microglia and macrophages (TAM) are the most numerous non-neoplastic populations in the tumor microenvironment of glioblastoma (GBM), the most common malignant brain tumor in adulthood. The mTOR pathway, an important regulator of cell survival and proliferation, is known to be upregulated in GBM, but little is known about a potential role of this pathway in TAM. Here, we show that GBM-initiating cells (GIC) induce mTOR signalling in TAM-Microglia (TAM-MG) but not TAM-Macrophages (TAM-BMDM) in in vitro and in vivo GBM mouse models. mTOR-dependent regulation of STAT3 and NF-ĸB activity promotes an immunosuppressed phenotype in TAM-MG which hinders effector T cell proliferation and immune reactivity, thereby contributing to tumor immune evasion and promoting tumor growth in a mouse model. The translational value of these results is demonstrated in whole transcriptome datasets of human GBM and in a novel in vitro model whereby IPSC-derived microglia-like cells are conditioned by syngeneic patient-derived GIC. These results raise the possibility that tumor cells might not be the primary target of mTOR inhibition, and TAM-MG should be considered instead.

The deubiquitinase USP22 stabilizes BMI1 polycomb ring finger oncoprotein to confer cancer stem cell traits and glioblastoma progression

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor with limited therapeutic options, possibly because of the highly tumorigenic subpopulations of stem cell-like cells. Mechanisms that sustain cancer stem cells are crucial to tumor progression. The polycomb group protein BMI1 (BMI1 proto-oncogene, polycomb ring finger) maintains cancer hallmarks including the glioblastoma stem-like cell (GSC) state. Ubiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22) is highly expressed in and required for the maintenance of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Previously, we observed that forced expressed microRNA-218 in glioblastoma cells led to suppressed BMI1 expression. However, the pathways engaged by USP22 or driving BMI1 accumulation in GSCs remained elusive. Here, we found USP22 to be a novel deubiquitylase of BMI1. USP22 directly deubiquitylates and stabilizes BMI1. USP22 protein levels are elevated in tumor neurosphere. USP22 depletion induces BMI1 destabilization, and results in the inhibition of GSCs self-renewal by regulating a broad range of genes involved in glioma stemness and progression. Xenograft analyses using U87MG cells showed that both USP22 and BMI1 depletion attenuated tumor growth. Clinically, the expression levels of USP22 and BMI1 were positively correlated with those common targets like POSTN, HEY2, or PDGFRA and inversely correlated with ATF3 in human glioblastoma specimens. Taken together, our data reveals that USP22 functions as a novel deubiquitylase of BMI1 and inhibits self-renewal of GSCs by stabilizing BMI1. These findings also indicate that the USP22-BMI1 axis has a critical role in glioma tumorigenesis and that targeting the axis may provide a new therapeutic approach for human glioblastoma.

Functional Identification of Critical Bmi1 target genes in Neural Progenitor and Malignant Glioma cells

Project description:In this study, we combined a genome-wide analysis of the Polycomb protein Bmi1 and an in vivo RNAi screening to identify critical targets whose repression in neural progenitor and Malignant Glioma cells enables normal and aberrant self-renewal. Bmi1 ChIP-sequencing generated in 2 primary adult mouse Neural Progenitor cell lines, 1 mouse astrocytic cell line, 1 mouse Glioma initiating cell line, and 1 mouse Glioma cell line. In human cell lines, Bmi1 ChIP-seq was performed for foetal Neural Progenitor Cells, and 2 Glioblastoma Stem-like cells. ChIP-seq for AP-1 in one Glioblastoma stem-like cell line. ChIP-sequencing were generated using either Illumina GxII or HiSeq. We have further performed RNA-seq of adult Ink4a/Arf -/-;BMI1or GFP dox-inducible shRNA mNPC with a doxycycline inducible shRNA targeting BMI1 or GFP (as control). These cells were either treated with doxyclyine for 48h to ablate BMI1 and GFP expression or further subjected to short-term differentiation using either BMP4 (10ng/ml or 50ng/ml for 3 or 6hrs), or FBS (1 or 10% for 3 or 6hrs). Additional mouse RNA-seq were performed in two biological replica of adult mouse brains (littermate) with either wild-type FVB background or BMI1 -/-. Finally, we performed RNA-seq in human Glioblastoma stem-like cells (most likely belonging to the mesenchymal GBM subtype) treated with BMP7, Arvanil and doxycycline or EtOH treated as ctrl.

Tumour-associated microglia/macrophages in Glioblastoma are heterogenous and display higher immunological reactivity under aconitate decarboxylase 1 deficiency

Project description:In Glioblastoma (GBM), tumour-associated microglia/macrophages (TAMs) represent the most abundant cells of the stromal compartment contributing to tumour immune escape mechanisms. Thus, strategies targeting TAMs are emerging as promising objectives for immunotherapy. However, TAMs heterogeneity is only starting to emerge and little is known about their contribution to GBM progression. Here, we comprehensively study the molecular changes of TAMs in the GL261 GBM mouse model by single-cell RNA-sequencing across GBM progression and in the absence of Acod1/Irg1, a key gene involved in macrophage metabolic reprogramming. We identify distinct TAM profiles, mainly based on their ontogeny, which recapitulate microglia- versus macrophage-like features showing key transcriptional differences and rapidly adapting along GBM stages. Notably, we uncover a decreased antigen-presenting cell signature in TAMs along tumour progression that is less prominent in Acod1/Irg1-deficient mice. Overall, our results provide insights into TAMs heterogeneity and highlight a potential role for Acod1/Irg1 in TAMs polarization along GBM progression.

U87 cells implanted on a chick CAM (Chorioallantoic Membrane)

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) brain tumours have one of the shortest mean survival times (<1 year). In vivo models of GBM in mice and rats have been developed to study aspects of glioma that cannot be observed in cell culture such as angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. Gliomas can be induced by implantation of rodent glioma cell lines into the brain or flank of nude mice. The disadvantages of rodent models however include variable growth rate and poor penetrance, which leads to difficulties in collecting clearly graded samples (pre-vascular/vascular). Bikfalvi et al have previously established a human GBM model that addresses these issues based on the chicken egg chorio-allantoic membrane (CAM), a highly vascularised extra-embryonic tissue. We have used DNA microarrays and a CAM model of GBM to study gene expression during the recruitment and development of the tumour vasculature. Over a 5 day period samples were taken every 12 hours from the tumour implantation site consisting of tumour cells and stroma cells, and also from a site distant from the implantation site consisting of just CAM cells. This study will shed light on the dynamic transcriptional signature of pathological angiogenesis. On day 10 of embryonic development 3-5 million U87 cells were deposited onto the surface of the CAM after gentle laceration. The cells were contained within a plastic ring and each tumour was size matched based on its volume. Tumour/stroma and distant CAM samples were cut out at 12 hour intervals post implantation for 5 days, equalling 10 time points. Each time point consisted of three replicates. U87 cells in culture (pre-implantation) were also included in the study in triplicate.

Inhibition of nuclear PTEN tyrosine phosphorylation enhances glioma radiation sensitivity through attenuated DNA repair

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal brain tumour that occurs in adults and treatment for GBM has been largely unsuccessful. Ionizing radiation (IR) and chemotherapeutic agents are employed as standard of care treatment for GBM patients and both result in DNA damage. Previous data identified phosphorylation of PTEN at tyrosine 240 (pY240) in samples from patients with recurrent GBM receiving standard of care treatment and was associated with decreased overall survival. Here we demonstrate that pY240 PTEN that was triggered by FGFR2 signaling, enhanced DNA repair by facilitating the loading of PTEN onto chromatin through its interaction with KI-67 and subsequent recruitment of the DNA repair protein, RAD51, to sites of DNA damage. Thus, tumour cells with pY240 PTEN are efficient at repairing DNA damage which would be predicted to result in resistance to therapy. These findings suggest the FGFR-pY240 PTEN-DNA repair mechanism as a therapeutic target for enhancing GBM therapy.
