Glioblastoma stem cells after treatment with sulconazole.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a uniformly lethal disease that is driven by GBM stem cells (GSCs). However, methods that selectively eradicate the GSCs remain limited. Here, we employed a chemical biology approach to identify novel compounds and strategies that target GSC proliferation, invasiveness and stemness. We studied the effect of sulconazole (SN) previously reportedly known as an antifungal drug. In GSCs SN inhibited multiple biotin-dependent carboxylases by competing with biotin, an important co-factor for these enzymes. Consequently, there was reduced carbon flux into the cholesterol biosynthesis and TCA cycle pathways, depleting intracellular cholesterol and impairing oxidative phosphorylation, resulting in impaired GSC proliferation. Notably, these metabolic changes were GSC-specific and undetected in SN treated mouse astrocytes. Thus, the pharmacologic inhibition of biotin-dependent carboxylases represents a viable therapy for GBM.

Gene expression profiling of core glioma stem cells: a novel glioblastoma cell population with diminished antigen presentation

Project description:Using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology, we reprogrammed GBM derived cells (GBM-DCs) into embryonic-like cells termed as induced core-GSCs (ic-GSCs). The aim of this experiment was to characterize the transcriptomic profile of ic-GSCs using RNA-seq. For this experiment, we selected three biological replicates of GBM-DCs (GBM-DC1, GBM-DC2 and GBM-DC3) and three independent clonal lines of ic-GSCs (ic-GSC#1, ic-GSC#3 and ic-GSC#7).

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.

Next Generation Sequencing from control and CD97 knockdown of glioblastoma stem cells

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) stem cells (GSCs) are largely associated with a poor prognosis of GBM. Although the importance of identifying and validating molecular markers in GBM has been emphasized, single markers covering all GSCs are lacking. Through in vitro antibody screening, in this study, we demonstrated that CD97 identifies GSCs as a novel surface marker. Compared to conventional well-known GSC markers, such as CD133, CD44 and CD15, only CD97 was notably detected in all tested patient-derived GSCs. GBM patients expressing high levels of CD97 experienced worse clinical outcomes, and were predictive of poor overall survival in the public database. CD97 is required for GSC proliferation and self-renewal and was shown to reduce mouse survival with aggressive tumor progression in an orthotopic xenograft model. A comparative transcriptomic analysis revealed that CD97 triggers mTORC2 signaling through Akt (S473) phosphorylation, enhancing the expression of downstream genes, including ARHGAP1, BZW1, and BZW2. Moreover, inhibition of mTORC2 signaling with the pharmacological inhibitor JR-AP2-011 suppressed GSC proliferation, self-renewal, and downstream gene expression. Furthermore, sorting of CD97-enriched cells from patient-derived GSCs revealed that CD97 promotes GSC self-renewal and tumorigenicity via mTORC2/AKT signaling. Thus, our findings suggest that CD97 may be a general GSC enrichment marker in GBM and that the CD97-related pathway might serve as a therapeutic target for GBM.

Targeting of glioma stem-like cells with a parthenolide derivative ACT001 through inhibition of AEBP1/PI3K/AKT signaling

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal primary brain tumor in adults with a median survival of around 15 months. A potential treatment strategy involves targeting glioma stem-like cells (GSCs) that are able to initiate, maintain, and repopulate the tumor mass. Here, we identify ACT001, a parthenolide derivative, targeting GSCs through regulation of adipocyte enhancer binding protein 1 (AEBP1) signaling.GSCs exhibit high response to ACT001 in compared with normal human astrocytes. AEBP1 is a putative target of ACT001 by RNA-Seq analysis, which expression associates with prognosis of GBM patients. Knockdown of AEBP1 inhibits GSC proliferation whereas ectopic expression of AEBP1 increases GSC proliferation and xenograft tumor growth. AEBP1 overexpression also attenuates ATC001-inhibited GSC orthotopic xenograft tumor growth. Treatment with ACT001 or PI3K inhibitor or AEBP1 depletion decreases AKT phosphorylation and GSC proliferation. However, constitutive AKT activation rescues ACT001 treatment or AEBP1 knockdown-inhibited cell proliferation. Additionally, ACT001 blocks TGF-β-activated AEBP1/AKT signaling in GSCs. ACT001 exhibits antitumor activity either as a single agent or in combination with SHP099, which provides significant survival benefits for GSC xenograft tumor -bearing animals.

SUV39H1 Maintains Cancer Stem Cells in Glioblastoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the deadliest brain cancer, driven in part by GBM stem cells (GSCs) that contribute to therapeutic resistance and tumor recurrence. Effective targeting and elimination of GSCs hold promise for preventing GBM recurrence and achieving potential cures. In this study, we explored the role of the epigenetic regulator SUV39H1 in GSC maintenance and GBM progression. We observed that SUV39H1 is upregulated in GBM samples compared to normal brain tissues. Single-cell RNA-seq data indicated that SUV39H1 is preferentially expressed in GSCs relative to non-stem GBM cells, possibly due to super-enhancer-mediated transcriptional activation. Knockdown of SUV39H1 in patient-derived GSCs impaired their proliferation and stemness. RNA-seq analysis revealed that SUV39H1 regulates G2/M cell cycle progression, stem cell maintenance, and cell death pathways in GSCs. Integrated ATAC-seq (assay for transposase-accessible chromatin followed by sequencing) and RNA-seq analyses demonstrated that targeting SUV39H1 altered chromatin accessibility in key genes associated with these pathways. Treatment with chaetocin, a SUV39H1 inhibitor, mimicked the effects of SUV39H1 knockdown in GSCs and sensitized them to the GBM chemotherapy drug temozolomide (TMZ). In vivo studies using an intracranial patient-derived xenograft model showed that targeting SUV39H1 inhibited GSC-driven tumor formation in mice. Our findings identify SUV39H1 as a critical regulator of GSC maintenance and suggest that targeting SUV39H1 could disrupt GSCs and enhance the efficacy of existing chemotherapy, offering a promising strategy for improving GBM treatment outcomes.

Dual role of Integrin alpha-6 in glioblastoma: supporting stemness in proneural stem-like cells while inducing radioresistance in mesenchymal stem-like cells

Project description:Therapeutic resistance after multimodal therapy is the most relevant cause of glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence. Extensive cellular heterogeneity, mainly driven by the presence of GBM stem-like cells (GSC), strongly correlates with patients’ prognosis and limited response to therapies. Defining the mechanisms which drive stemness and control responsiveness to therapy in a GSC-specific manner is therefore mandatory. Here we investigated the role of integrin a6 (ITGA6) in controlling stemness and resistance to radiotherapy in proneural and mesenchymal GSCs subtypes. Using cell sorting, gene silencing, RNA-Seq and in vitro assays, we verified that ITGA6 expression seems crucial for proliferation and stemness of proneural GSCs, while it appears not to be relevant in mesenchymal GSCs under basal conditions. However, when challenged with a fractionated protocol of radiation therapy, comparable to that employed in the clinical setting, mesenchymal GSCs turned out to be dependent on integrin a6 for survival. Specifically, GSCs with reduced levels of ITGA6 displayed a clear reduction of DNA-damage response and perturbation of cell cycle pathways. These data indicate that ITGA6 inhibition is able to overcome the radioresistance of mesenchymal GSCs, while it reduces proliferation and stemness in proneural GSCs. Therefore, integrin a6 controls crucial characteristics across GBM subtypes in GBM heterogeneous biology and thus may represent a promising target to improve patient outcomes

Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and BMP7 regulate glioblastoma stem cells differentiation status

Project description:Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) fate is controlled by environmental cues, among which cytokines play a crucial role. The transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) family signaling pathways controls GSCs. On one hand, TGFβ promotes cell proliferation in GBM, it induces the expression of platelet-derived growth factor-B (PDGFB). Moreover, TGFβ, via its signaling mediators Smad2/3, induces the expression of the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and Sox4, which in turn enhances the expression of the stem cell transcription factor Sox2; this increases the self-renewal capacity of the GSCs and their stemness characteristics, and enhances the GSC tumor-initiating potential. On the other hand, Bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are known to promote GSC differentiation towards the astrocytic phenotype. To further understand which genes are regulated by TGFβ and BMP7 in GSCs we performed a microarray in the Affymetrix HTA2 platform in three different glioblastoma cell line, U2987, and two patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells, U3031MG and U3034MG, in the presence or absence of 5 ng/ml of TGFβ or 30 ng/ml BMP7 for 24 h, three biological replicates per condition.

Expression data for minimally invasive glioblastoma stem-like cell (GSC) plasma membrane markers

Project description:We compared whole genome expression profiles of GSCs with normal human cortex, human neural stem cells (hNSC) from fetal cortex, glioblastoma (GBM) primary, and recurrent tumors to find GSC-specific plasma membrane transcripts. All of the expression profiles were batch normalized by a robust multichip average (RMA) algorithm using Geospiza GeneSifter (PerkinElmer) online microarray database and analysis software. The data was then exported into Microsoft Office Excel 2010 and organized for GSC transcripts with raw intensity values 10 fold or higher over normal brain, hNSCs, GBM primary and recurrent tumor samples. The reverse sorting algorithm was done to obtain downregulated GSC trascripts.
