Expression profiling of glioblastoma cancer stem cells

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is thought to be driven by a sub-population of cancer stem cells (CSCs) that self-renew and recapitulate tumor heterogeneity, yet remain poorly understood. Here we present a comparative epigenomic analysis of GBM CSCs that reveals widespread activation of genes normally held in check by Polycomb repressors. These activated targets include a large set of developmental transcription factors (TFs) whose coordinated activation is unique to the CSCs. We demonstrate that a critical factor in the set, ASCL1, activates Wnt signaling by repressing the negative regulator DKK1. We show that ASCL1 is essential for maintenance and in vivo tumorigenicity of GBM CSCs. Genomewide binding profiles for ASCL1 and the Wnt effector LEF1 provide mechanistic insight and suggest widespread interactions between the TF module and the signaling pathway. Our findings demonstrate regulatory connections between ASCL1, Wnt signaling and collaborating TFs that are essential for the maintenance and tumorigenicity of GBM CSCs.

Id1 knockdown in primary human glioma stem cells

Project description:Abnormal activation of stemness factors is a crucial signature of cancer stem cells (CSCs), a highly tumorigenic subpopulation in malignant tumors. However, it is unclear whether multi-signaling pathways are activated in CSCs, as like normal stem cells. I would like to report that an inhibitor of differentiation 1 (ID1) activates intracellular multi-signaling involved in proliferation, genesis, and maintenance of glioma stem cells (GSCs) by suppression of Cullin3, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that degrades Cyclin E and components of SHH and WNT signaling. ID1 inhibits BMP-dependent differentiation of GSCs by activation of BMPR2-targeting miR17/20a. ID1HIGH-Cullin3LOW signature correlates with a poor prognosis of GBM patients with a significant association to gene signatures enriched in EGF, WNT, SHH, and BMP signaling. Combinational inhibition of GSC intracellular multi-signaling network increases tumor-bearing mice survival. These results provide insights on molecular and cellular basis of GSC biology, and also suggest necessity of multi-signaling inhibition for GSCs therapy. Two human primary glioma stem cells (GSCs) such as GSC2 and GSC8 were isolated from two individual primary human glioma specimens. The GSCs were directly transfected with pSuper-GFP-ID1-shRNA and pSuper-GFP-Scrambled-shRNA using FuGENE 6 reagent (Roche). The RNA extraction in these cells was used to analyze gene expression.

ASCL1 defines differentiation-competent GBM cells and directs neoplastic cells towards neuronal fate

Project description:We identified a subgroup of patient-derived glioblastoma (GBM) cells that express high levels of the neurogenic transcription factor, ASCL1, which predicts response to pharmacological inhibition of the Notch signaling pathway. Treatment of ASCL1hi GBM cells with a Notch signaling inhibitor induced a change in cell fate from neoplastic to neuronal. Importantly, acquisition of the neuronal fate was accompanied by a reduction in tumorigenic potential. Loss of ASCL1 in GBM cells rendered cells no longer responsive to Notch signaling inhibition and we determined ASCL1 is required for the competency of GBM cells to undergo neuronal differentiation. Enforced ASCL1 expression directed GBM cells towards a neuronal cell fate reminiscent of terminal differentiation. RNA-seq analysis of GBM cells treated with the Notch signaling inhibitor reveals neuronal target gene activation is associated with increased stoichiometric levels of ASCL1, suggesting threshold levels of ASCL1 in GBM cells governs neuronal differentiation. We demonstrate that neoplastic cells which retain expression of key neurogenic programs can have their fates redirected towards terminal differentiation. Directed fate specification to neuronal cell types by exploiting latent neurogenic programs may be a strategy to treat a subset of GBM patients. Our findings therefore highlight the potential of differentiation therapy for a subset of molecularly defined GBMs.

Stat5b inhibition blocks proliferation and tumorigenicity of glioblastoma stem cells derived from a de novo murine brain cancer model

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant type of brain cancer in adults with poor prognosis. GBM stem cells (GSCs) reside within niches in GBM tissues and contributes to recurrence and therapy resistance. Previous studies have shown that expression of leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (Lgr5), a Wnt pathway-related stem cell marker, correlates with a poor prognosis in GBM, and its knockdown in GSCs induces apoptosis accompanied with downregulation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5b (Stat5b). Here, we show that Stat5b co-localizes with Lgr5 in hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (Hif2α)-positive regions in GBM tissues. Functional analyses using GSCs derived from a murine de novo GBM model induced by oncogenic genes transduction using the Sleeping-Beauty transposon system revealed that expression of Stat5b was induced by culturing under hypoxia together with Lgr5, repressed by Hif2α knockdown, and reduced by Lgr5 knockdown or a Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibitor ICG-001 treatment. Stat5b inhibition in the GSCs induced apoptosis and caused downregulation of Cyclin E2 resulted in blockade of entry into S-phase in the cell cycle. Disruption of Stat5b in an orthotopic transplantation model significantly prolongs event-free survival. These results suggest that Stat5b, regulated by hypoxia and the Wnt pathway, plays an important role in the maintenance and tumorigenicity of GSCs and may be a promising therapeutic molecular target to attack GSCs.

Expression data from human glioma cancer stem cell (CSC) specimens following knockdown of GREM1

Project description:CSCs differentially secrete the BMP antagonist Gremlin1 compared to non-stem glioma populations. Knockdown of Gremlin1 decreases CSC proliferation and tumorigenicity, establishing Gremlin1 as an essential effector for CSC maintenance. We used a microarray to determine the gene expression programs that are activated downstream of Gremlin1 that might be responsible for CSC maintenance.
