Project description:Aims: Whereas recent molecular analysis has revealed that sporadic meningioma has various genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic profiles, those of meningioma in NF2 patients are not fully elucidated. This study probed meningiomas' clinical, histological, and molecular characteristics in NF2 patients. Methods: A long-term retrospective follow-up (13.5 ± 5.5 years) study involving 159 meningiomas in NF2 patients was performed. We assessed their characteristics by performing immunohistochemistry (IHC), bulk-RNA sequencing, and copy number analysis. All variables of meningiomas in NF2 patients were compared with those of 189 sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas. Results: Most meningiomas in NF2 patients were stable, and the mean annual growth rate was 1.0 ± 1.8 cm3/yr. Twenty-eight meningiomas (17.6%) in 25 patients (43.1%) were resected during the follow-up period. WHO grade 1 meningiomas in NF2 patients` were more frequent than in sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas (92.9% vs 80.9%). Transcriptomic analysis for NF2 patients`/sporadic NF2-altered WHO grade 1 meningiomas (n = 14 versus 15, respectively) showed that tumours in NF2 patients had still higher immune response and immune cell infiltration than sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas. Furthermore, RNA-seq/IHC-derived immunophenotyping corroborated this higher immune response by identifying myeloid cell infiltration, especially macrophages. Conclusions: Clinical, histological, and transcriptomic analyses for meningiomas in NF2 patients demonstrated that meningiomas in NF2 patients showed less aggressive behaviour than sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas and elicited marked immune response by identifying myeloid cell infiltration, especially macrophages.

Project description:Although recent molecular analyses revealed that sporadic meningiomas have various genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic profiles, meningioma in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) have not been fully elucidated. This study investigated meningiomas' clinical, histological, and molecular characteristics in NF2 patients. A long-term retrospective follow-up (13.5 ± 5.5 years) study involving total 159 meningiomas in 37 patients with NF2 was performed. Their characteristics were assessed using immunohistochemistry (IHC), bulk-RNA sequencing, and copy number analysis. All variables of meningiomas in patients with NF2 were compared with those in 189 sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas in 189 patients. Most meningiomas in NF2 patients were stable, and the mean annual growth rate was 1.0 ± 1.8 cm3/year. Twenty-eight meningiomas (17.6%) in 25 patients (43.1%) were resected during the follow-up period. WHO grade I meningiomas in patients with NF2 were more frequent than in sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas (92.9% vs. 80.9%). Transcriptomic analysis for patients with NF2/sporadic NF2-altered WHO grade I meningiomas (n = 14 vs. 15, respectively) showed that tumours in NF2 patients still had a higher immune response and immune cell infiltration than sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas. Furthermore, RNA-seq/IHC-derived immunophenotyping corroborated this enhanced immune response by identifying myeloid cell infiltration, particularly in macrophages. Clinical, histological, and transcriptomic analyses of meningiomas in patients with NF2 demonstrated that meningiomas in NF2 patients showed less aggressive behaviour than sporadic NF2-altered meningiomas and elicited a marked immune response by identifying myeloid cell infiltration, particularly of macrophages.

Project description:Meningiomas, one of the most common human brain tumors, are derived from arachnoidal cells associated with brain meninges, usually benign and frequently associated with neurofibromatosis type 2. Here we define a human meningioma-typical miRNA profile and characterize effects of one down-regulated miRNA, miR-200a, on tumor growth. Elevated levels of miR-200a inhibited meningioma cell growth in culture and in a tumor model in vivo. Up-regulation of miR-200a decreased expression of transcription factors, ZEB1 and SIP1, with consequently increased expression of E-cadherin, an adhesion protein associated with cell differentiation. Down-regulation of miR-200a in meningiomas and arachnoidal cells resulted in increased expression of β -catenin and cyclin D1 involved in cell proliferation. miR-200a was found to directly target β -catenin mRNA, thereby inhibiting its translation and blocking β -catenin-Wnt signaling, frequently involved in cancer. A direct correlation was found between down-regulation of miR-200a and up-regulation of β-catenin in human meningioma samples. Thus, miR-200a appears to act as a multi-functional tumor suppressor miRNA in meningiomas through effects on the E-cadherin and β -catenin-Wnt signaling pathways. This reveals a previously unrecognized signaling cascade involved in meningioma tumor development and highlights a novel molecular interaction between miR-200a and Wnt signaling, thereby providing insights into novel therapies for meningiomas. 14 meningioma tumor samples were compared to 3 arachnoidal tissue control samples. Two technical replicates were performed for each sample. Normalization and processing included combining the data from technical replicates. The below table contains quantile-normalized data.

Project description:Background: Schwannomas and grade I meningiomas are non-metastatic neoplasms that shares the common mutation of gene NF2. They usually appear in Neurofibromatosis type 2 patients. Currently, there is no drug treatment available for both tumors, so the use of wide expression technologies is crucial to find those therapeutic targets. Methodology: Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST was used to test global gene expression in 22 meningiomas, 31 schwannomas and, as non-tumoral controls, 3 healthy meningeal tissues, 8 non-tumoral nerves and 1 primary Schwann cells culture. A non-stringent P-cutoff and fold change were used to establish deregulated genes. Results and discussion: We found a subset of genes that were upregulated in meningiomas and schwannomas when compared to their respectively healthy tissue, including PDGFD, CDH1, SLIT2 and MET. Thus, those genes could be more thoroughly studied as targets in a possible combined treatment.

Project description:Methylation array profiling of infant high grade gliomas identifies an intrinsic group of tumours with epigenetic profiles distinct from gliomas in older children. These tumours are characterised by very few recurrent mutations and carry a very high frequency of fusion genes. They can be diagnosed according to their methylation profile and novel treatments are available targeting the different fusion genes.
