Project description:Gliomas are mostly incurable secondary to their diffuse infiltrative nature. Thus, specific therapeutic targeting of invasive glioma cells is an attractive concept. As cells exit the tumor mass and infiltrate brain parenchyma, they closely interact with a changing micro-environmental landscape that sustains tumor cell invasion. In this study, we used a unique microarray profiling approach on a human glioma stem cell (GSC) xenograft model to explore gene expression changes in situ in invading glioma cells compared to tumor core, as well as changes in host cells residing within the infiltrated microenvironment relative to the unaffected cortex. Replicate sets of mice (n=4) were inoculated with either of two different GSC's derived from from human glioma, and each mouse had samples taken from the tumor mass, the infiltrating area and the mouse brain parenchyma, resulting in 3 samples per animal. The tumor mass and infiltrating samples were hybridized on human U133Plus2 Arrays, whereas the infiltrating samples and mouse brain parenchyma were hybridized on mouse

Project description:Diffusely infiltrative growth of human astrocytic gliomas is one of the major obstacles to successful tumor therapy. Thorough insights into the miRNAs inolved in regulating glioma cell invasion thus appear of major relevance for the development of novel and advanced therapies. miRNA expression profiling on microdissected human tumor biopsy specimens was performed to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in invading glioblastoma cells in vivo. miRNA was extracted from the infiltrative rim (INF) as well as from the central tumor areas (CEN) of 7 patients with malignant glioma. The Micro Fluidic Card System (Applied Biosystems) was used according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocol for miRNA expression profiling.

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive and incurable brain tumor in nearly all instances, whose disease progression is driven in part by the glioma stem cell (GSC) subpopulation. Here, we explored the effects of Schlafen family member 11 (SLFN11) in the molecular, cellular and tumor biology of GBM.

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:Glioblastoma is the most common and most devastating adult primary brain tumor. Despite aggressive multimodal therapy, the median survival is approximately one year after diagnosis. In recent years bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (BM-hMSCs) have shown promise as cell-based delivery vehicles for anti-glioma therapeutics. This is largely due to their innate ability to migrate towards gliomas. Several studies have successfully demonstrated their use as delivery vehicles for anti-glioma agents. However, it is now evident that BM-hMSCs demonstrate variable tropism towards gliomas based on a clinically relevant glioma stem cell (GSC) model of GBM. In this study, we compared the proteomic profile of cancer and stromal cell populations in GSC xenografts that attract BM-hMSCs (‘attractors’) with those to do not (‘non-attractors’) in order to identify cell-signaling pathways that may modulate BM-hMSCs homing followed by targeted transcriptomic analysis of human gene sets related to glioma biology. We identified lower protein expression of fatty acid metabolism and glucose-dependent metabolic pathways in attractors. While transcriptomic analysis suggested that N-linked glycosylation was increased. Conversely, glucose metabolic pathways, including oxidative phosphorylation, were increased in the stromal cells present in attractors. The results presented here provide the first evidence for glucose metabolism, reactive oxidative species and lipid-mediated tumor inflammatory response, and N-linked glycosylation in the homing of BM-hMSC to GSC xenografts. Reciprocal expression of these pathways in the stromal cell population may suggest microenvironment cross-talk. Our studies provide new insights on the signaling correlates underlying the differential homing capacity of BM-hMSCs to GSC xenografts.

Project description:Glioblastoma is one of the deadliest malignancies worldwide and is virtually incurable due to its highly infiltrative growth and limited sensitivity to conventional treatment by radiochemotherapy. It is hypothesized that a small population of cells with a stem-like phenotype is the major culprit of tumor recurrence. These cells are characterized by an enhanced DNA repair capacity and expression of stemness marker genes, and elimination of this population might delay or even stop tumor recurrence following radiochemotherapy. The aim of this study was to analyze whether interference with the Hedgehog signaling (Hh) pathway or combined Hh/Notch blockade can efficiently target these cancer stem cells and sensitize them to chemotherapeutic drugs. Using tumor sphere lines and primary glioma cells we demonstrate that the Hh pathway inhibitor GANT61 (GANT) and the Hh/Notch inhibitor arsenic trioxide (ATO) are capable to synergistically decrease proliferation and induce cell death in combination with the natural cotton derived anticancer agent (-)-Gossypol (Gos). In contrast to GANT in combination with Gos, the ATO/Gos combination also strongly prevented sphere formation and recovery. These synergistic effects were associated with major proteomic changes indicating decreased cell movement, distortion of cell cycle and DNA repair, as well as markedly reduced stemness. Collectively, our data show that ATO and Gos, two drugs that are safe for use in humans, represent a promising targeted therapy approach for the synergistic and specific elimination of glioma stem-like cells.

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 “multiforme” 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 “signature” of the ancestral GSC population, we examined 5 already characterized GSC lines evaluating their copy number alterations using a genome-wide approach.

Project description:Glioblastoma multiform account for about half of all gliomas and are the most deadly and aggressive forms. Its therapeutic resistance and tumor relapse rely on a subpopulation of cells, the so-called Glioma-stem Cells (GSCs). Here, we investigated for the role of the long non-coding RNA HOXA-AS2 in GSC biology by conducting descriptive and functional analyses of glioma samples classified according to their isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) gene mutation status, and of glioma stem cells. We found that HOXA-AS2 is overexpressed only in aggressive (IDHwt) glioma and GSC. Sh-RNA-based depletion of HOXA-AS2 affects GSC both at the cellular and molecular levels with a decrease in proliferation and altered expression of several hundreds of their genes. Integrative analysis revealed that these changes is expression are not associated to changes in DNA methylation or chromatin signature at the promoter of most deregulated genes following HOXA-AS2 silencing in GSC, supporting a post-transcriptional regulation. In addition, transcription factor motif enrichment and correlation analyses sustained that HOXA-AS2 affect, directly or indirectly, expression of key transcription factors of GCS biology, including E2F8, E2F1, STAT1 and ATF3 to, in fine, contributes to their pathological status by promoting proliferation and modulating the inflammation pathway of Glioma Stem Cell.
