Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most common and malignant type of glioma, is characterized by a poor prognosis and the lack of an effective treatment, which are due to a small sub-population of cells with stem-like properties, termed glioma stem cells (GSCs). The term M-bM-^@M-^\multiformeM-bM-^@M-^] describes the histological feature of this tumor, i.e. the cellular and morphological heterogeneity. At the molecular level multiple layers of alterations may reflect this heterogeneity providing together the driving force of tumor initiation and development. In order to decipher the common M-bM-^@M-^\signatureM-bM-^@M-^] of the ancestral GSC population, we examined 5 already characterized GSC lines evaluating their copy number alterations using a genome-wide approach. Genomic DNA was isolated from 5 Glioma Stem Cell (GSC) lines. Each sample was labeled with Cy3 dye and then hybridized against the same commercial reference DNA labeled in Cy5.

Project description:Understanding the glioma stem cell (GSC) heterogeneity within IDH1 and TP53 mutant tumors may elucidate possible targets for astrocytoma treatment. We performed single-nucleus transcriptomics of 6 mutant and wild-type glioma samples sorted for Sox2 stem cell marker. Malignant states of different clusters were evaluated by the expression of the normal and hematopoietic markers. We found that mutant GSCs were characterized by collagen synthesis and CD44-high phenotype prone to migration, while wild-type GSCs had vulnerability points in ATP synthesis. Additionally, mutant GSCs displayed altered lipogenesis probably attributed to the low NADPH consumed by mutant IDH1. The collagen and lipid biosynthesis represent possible target pathways for prospective tackling GSCs with IDH1 R132H and TP53 point mutations, uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation are promising to address wild-type GSC proliferation

Project description:Glioblastoma is a major unmet clinical need characterized by striking inter- and intra-tumoral heterogeneity and a population of glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs), conferring aggressiveness and therapy resistance. GSCs communicate through a network of tumor-tumor connections (TTCs), including nanotubes and microtubes, promoting tumor progression. However, very little is known about the mechanisms underlying TTC formation and overall GSC morphology. As GSCs closely resemble neural progenitor cells during neurodevelopment, we hypothesised that GSCs’ morphological features affect tumour progression. We identified GSC morphology as a new layer of tumoral heterogeneity with important consequences on GSC proliferation. Strikingly, we showed that the neurodevelopmental morphoregulator ADD3, is sufficient and necessary for maintaining proper GSC morphology, TTC abundance and cell cycle progression as well as required for cell survival. Remarkably, both the effects on cell morphology and proliferation depend on the stability of actin cytoskeleton. Hence, cell morphology and its regulators play a key role in tumor progression by mediating cell-cell communication. We thus propose that GSC morphological heterogeneity holds the potential to identify new therapeutic targets and diagnostic markers.

Project description:Tumor heterogeneity of high-grade glioma (HGG) is recognized by four clinically relevant subtypes based on core gene signatures. However, molecular signaling in glioma stem cells (GSCs) in individual HGG subtypes is poorly characterized. Here we identified and characterized two mutually exclusive GSC subtypes with distinct dysregulated signaling pathways. Analysis of mRNA profiles distinguished proneural (PN) from mesenchymal (Mes) GSCs and revealed a pronounced correlation with the corresponding PN or Mes HGGs. Mes GSCs displayed more aggressive phenotypes in vitro and as intracranial xenografts in mice. Further, Mes GSCs were markedly resistant to radiation compared with PN GSCs. The glycolytic pathway, comprising aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) family genes and in particular ALDH1A3, were enriched in Mes GSCs. Glycolytic activity and ALDH activity were significantly elevated in Mes GSCs but not in PN GSCs. Expression of ALDH1A3 was also increased in clinical HGG compared with low-grade glioma or normal brain tissue. Moreover, inhibition of ALDH1A3 attenuated the growth of Mes but not PN GSCs. Last, radiation treatment of PN GSCs up-regulated Mes-associated markers and downregulated PN-associated markers, whereas inhibition of ALDH1A3 attenuated an irradiation-induced gain of Mes identity in PN GSCs. Taken together, our data suggest that two subtypes of GSCs, harboring distinct metabolic signaling pathways, represent intertumoral glioma heterogeneity and highlight previously unidentified roles of ALDH1A3-associated signaling that promotes aberrant proliferation of Mes HGGs and GSCs. Inhibition of ALDH1A3- mediated pathways therefore might provide a promising therapeutic approach for a subset of HGGs with the Mes signature.

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.

Project description:Glioblastomas show heterogeneous histological features. These distinct phenotypic states are thought to be associated with the presence of glioma stem cells (GSCs), which are highly tumorigenic and self-renewing sub-population of tumor cells that have different functional characteristics. To investigate Glioblastomas (GBMs) show heterogeneous histological features. These distinct phenotypic states are thought to be originated by the glioma stem cells (GSCs), which are highly tumorigenic and self-renewing sub-population of tumor cells. Notch signaling has been shown to be important for maintenance of GSC population both in vitro and in vivo. A recent study showed that NOTCH -triggered oncogenic activity can be due to not only its ability to regulate coding genes but also long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Here, we investigated the molecular effects of lncRNA in GSC, whose expression is induced by Notch signaling. We searched for downregulated lncRNAs in GSCs by treatment of small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting Notch1 and JAG1 (si-Notch1 and si-JAG1).

Project description:Glioblastoma is a malignant brain tumor that is highly resistant to radiation and chemotherapy, where patients survive on average only 15 months after diagnosis. Furthering the understanding of mechanisms leading to radiation resistance of glioma is paramount to identify novel therapeutic targets. Previous studies have shown that glioma stem cells (GSCs) play an important role in promoting radiation resistance and disease recurrence. Herein we analyze the proteomic alterations occurring in patient-derived GSCs upon radiation treatment in order to identify molecular drivers of resistance. We show that proteome changes upon radiation accurately predict the resistance status of the cells, and that resistance to radiation does not correlate with glioma transcriptional subtypes. We further show that the radio-resistant cell line GSC-267 sheds microvesicles (MVs) enriched in the metabolic enzyme nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT).

Project description:Longstanding evidence implicates glioma stem cells (GSCs) as the major driver for glioma propagation and recurrence. GSCs have a distinctive metabolic landscape characterized by elevated glycolysis. Lactate accumulation resulting from enhanced glycolytic activity can drive lysine lactylation to regulate protein functions, suggesting that elucidating the lactylation landscape in GSCs could provide insights into glioma biology. Herein, we demonstrated that global lactylation was significantly elevated in GSCs compared to differentiated glioma cells (DGCs). PTBP1, a central regulator of RNA processing, was hyperlactylated in GSCs, and SIRT1 induced PTBP1 delactylation. PTBP1-K436 lactylation supported glioma progression and GSC maintenance. Mechanistically, K436 lactylation inhibited PTBP1 proteasomal degradation by attenuating the interaction with TRIM21. Moreover, PTBP1 lactylation enhanced its RNA-binding capacity and facilitated PFKFB4 mRNA stabilization, which further increased glycolysis. Together, these findings uncovered a lactylation-mediated mechanism in GSCs driven by metabolic reprogramming that induces aberrant epigenetic modifications to further stimulate glycolysis, resulting in a vicious cycle to exacerbate tumorigenesis.

Project description:Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a homeostatic process essential for the lysosomal degradation of individual proteins. CMA activity directly depends on the levels of LAMP2A, critical receptor at the lysosomal membrane, to which CMA substrate proteins are bound. In glioblastoma (GBM), the most common and aggressive brain cancer in the adulthood, high levels of LAMP2A have been linked to TMZ resistance and tumor-associated pericytes. However, the implication of LAMP2A, and hence CMA, in glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) remains unknown. In this work, we show that LAMP2A expression is enriched in patient-derived GSC population and its knock-down diminishes GSCs tumorigenic activities. Proteomic and transcriptomic analysis of LAMP2A knocked-down GSCs revealed reduced extracellular matrix (ECM) interaction effectors in both analyses. Moreover, immune system and mitochondrial metabolism related pathways were remarkably deregulated at proteome level, whereas PI3K-AKT and p53 pathways were altered in RNAseq study. Moreover, clinical samples of GBM tissue presented overexpression of LAMP2 and its high levels correlated with advanced glioma grade and poor overall survival. In conclusion, we identified a novel role of CMA directly regulating GSCs activity via multiple pathways at proteome and transcriptome level.
