Inhibition of 13-cis retinoic acid-induced gene expression of reactive-resistance genes by thalidomide in glioblastoma tumours in vivo

ABSTRACT: The cell differentiation potential of 13-cis retinoic acid (RA) has not succeeded in the clinical treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) so far. However, RA may also induce the expression of disistance genes such as HOXB7 which can be suppressed by Thalidomide (THAL). Therefore, we tested if combined treatment with RA+THAL may inhibit growth of glioblastoma in vivo. Treatment with RA+THAL but not RA or THAL alone significantly inhibited tumour growth. The synergistic effect of RA and THAL was corroborated by the effect on proliferation of glioblastoma cell lines in vitro. HOXB7 was not upregulated but microarray analysis validated by real-time PCR identified four potential resistance genes (IL-8, HILDPA, IGFBPA, and ANGPTL4) whose upregulation by RA was suppressed by THAL. Furthermore, genes coding for small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNA) were identified as a target for RA for the first time, and their upregulation was maintained after combined treatment. Pathway analysis showed upregulation of the Ribosome pathway and downregulation of pathways associated with proliferation and inflammation. Combined treatment with RA + THAL delayed growth of GBM xenografts and suppressed putative resistance genes associated with hypoxia and angiogenesis. This encourages further pre-clinical and clinical studies of this drug combination in GBM. The purpose was to study differential gene expression in glioblastoma xenografts after treatment with 13-cis retinoic acid (RA), thalidomide (Thal) or a combination of both drugs.

Cyclophilin B supports the survuval of glioblastoma multiforme cells

Project description:We have found that cyclophilin B (CypB) expression is important for malignant glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cell proliferation. To identify molecular mechanisms that could explain CypB-dependent survival in human GBM cells, a microarray analysis was performed using RNA prepared from U251MG GBM cells transduced with lentiviral CypB shRNA. These data revealed that about 130 genes were more than 2-fold affected by CypB depletion. Significant alterations in the expression of genes related to cell death, cell proliferation and cell migration were found in the shCypB cells. U251 glioblastoma cells transduced with lentivirus expressing non-target control shRNA (shCON) were compared to cells transduced with lentivirus expressing shRNA sequence against cyclophilin B (shCypB). Cells transduced with the lentiviral shRNA (shCON VS shCypB) for 5 days before total RNA extraction. Three biological replicates of cells treated with each shRNA (shCON or shCypB) were profiled.

A novel blood brain barrier-permeable IRE1 inhibitor prevents Glioblastoma relapse in mice

Project description:Inositol Requiring Enzyme 1 (IRE1) is a bifunctional serine/threonine kinase and endoribonuclease that is a major mediator of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Tumor cells experience ER stress due to adverse environmental cues such as hypoxia or nutrient shortage and high metabolic/protein folding demand. To cope with those stresses, cancer cells utilize IRE1 signaling as an adaptive mechanism. Here we report the discovery of novel family of compounds as IRE1 inhibitors identified through a structural exploration of the IRE1 kinase domain. All the inhibitors were tested for their ability to sensitize glioblastoma (GBM) cells to chemotherapy. We show that all molecules identified inhibit IRE1 signaling and sensitize glioblastoma cells to the standard of care chemotherapy temozolomide (TMZ). From these inhibitors we selected one that was able to cross the Brain Blood Barrier (BBB) and evaluated its capacity to inhibit tumor growth and avoid relapse in vivo. These results support the attractiveness of IRE1 as an adjuvant therapeutic target in GBM; a common and wholly fatal diagnosis. In addition, they provide scope for quickly testing IRE1 inhibitor suitability in GBM as adjuvant therapy due to their current status for clinical use.

ZNF117 target ChIP-seq

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is a deadly disease without effective treatment. Because glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) contribute to tumor resistance and recurrence, improved treatment of GBM can be achieved by eliminating GSCs through inducing their differentiation. Prior efforts have been focused on studying GSC differentiation towards the astroglial lineage.

PTEN DEFICIENCY LEADS TO PROTEASOME ADDICTION, A NOVEL VULNERABILITY IN GLIOBLASTOMA

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults with a median survival of approximately 15 months, therefore, more effective treatment options for GBM are required. To identify new drugs targeting glioblastomas, we performed a high throughput drug screen using patient-derived neurospheres cultured to preferentially retain their glioblastoma stem cell (GSC) phenotype. High throughput drug screening was performed on GSCs followed by a second dose response assay of the 5 identified original hits. A PI3K/mTOR dependency to a proteasome inhibitor (carfilzomib), was confirmed by gain of function and loss of function experiments. Proteasome inhibition response signatures were derived from proteomic and bioinformatic analysis. Molecular mechanism of action was determined using in vitro 3-dimensional (3D) GBM organoid models and in vivo preclinical orthotopic GBM models. We found that GSCs were highly sensitive to proteasome inhibition due to an underlying dependency on an increased protein synthesis rate, and loss of autophagy, associated with PTEN loss and activation of the PI3K/mTOR pathway. In contrast, combinatory inhibition of autophagy and the proteasome, resulted in enhanced cytotoxicity specifically in GSCs that did express PTEN. Finally, proteasome inhibition specifically increased cell death markers in 3D glioblastoma organoids, suppressed tumor growth, and increased survival of mice orthotopically engrafted with GSCs. As perturbations of the PTEN/ PI3K axis occur in nearly 50% of GBMs, these findings suggest that a significant fraction of these tumors could be vulnerable to proteasome inhibition.

TRIM25 promotes glioblastoma cell growth and invasion via regulation of the PRMT1/c-MYC pathway by targeting the splicing factor NONO

Project description:Ubiquitination plays an important role in proliferating and invasive characteristic of glioblastoma (GBM), similar to many other cancers. Tripartite motif 25 (TRIM25) is a member of the TRIM family of proteins, which are involved in tumorigenesis through substrate ubiquitination. Here, we found TRIM25 is upregulated in GBM and promotes glioblastoma cell growth and invasion, both in vitro and in vivo. Subsequently, we screened a panel of proteins that interact with TRIM25; mass spectrometry and co-immunoprecipitation showed that NONO was a potential substrate of TRIM25. TRIM25 knockdown reduced the K63-linked ubiquitination of NONO, which suppressed the splicing function of NONO. The dysfunctional NONO further leads to the retention of the second intron in the pre-mRNA of PRMT1 and inhibit the activation of the PRMT1/c-MYC pathway. In summary, we demonstrated that TRIM25 promotes glioblastoma cell growth and invasion by regulating the PRMT1/c-MYC pathway through mediation of the splicing factor NONO. Efforts to target the E3 ligase activity of TRIM25 or the complex interactions between TRIM25 and NONO may be useful in the treatment of GBM.

Androgen receptor, although not a specific marker for, is a novel target to suppress glioma stem cells as a therapeutic strategy for glioblastoma

Project description:Targeting androgen receptor (AR) has been shown to be promising in treating glioblastoma (GBM) in cell culture and flank implant models but the mechanisms remain unclear. AR antagonists including enzalutamide are available for treating prostate cancer patients in clinic and can pass the blood–brain barrier, thus are potentially good candidates for GBM treatment but have not been tested in GBM orthotopically. Our current studies confirmed that in patients, a majority of GBM tumors overexpress AR in both genders. Enzalutamide inhibited the proliferation of GBM cells both in vitro and in vivo. Although confocal microscopy demonstrated that AR is expressed but not specifically in glioma cancer stem cells (CSCs) (CD133+), enzalutamide treatment significantly decreased CSC population in cultured monolayer cells and spheroids, suppressed tumor sphere-forming capacity of GBM cells, and downregulated CSC gene expression at mRNA and protein levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner. We have, for the first time, demonstrated that enzalutamide treatment decreased the density of CSCs in vivo and improved survival in an orthotopic GBM mouse model. We conclude that AR antagonists potently target on glioma CSCs in addition to suppressing the overall proliferation of GBM cells as a mechanism supporting their repurposing for clinical applications treating GBM.

CIITA-transduced glioblastoma cells uncover a rich repertoire of clinically relevant tumor-associated HLA-II antigens

Project description:CD4+ T cell responses are crucial for inducing and maintaining effective anti-cancer immunity, and the identification of HLA-II cancer-specific epitopes is key to the development of potent cancer immunotherapies. In many tumor types, and especially in glioblastoma (GBM), HLA-II complexes are hardly ever naturally expressed. Hence, little is known about immunogenic HLA-II epitopes in GBM. With stable expression of CIITA coupled to a detailed and sensitive mass spectrometry based immunopeptidomics analysis, we here uncovered a remarkable breadth of the HLA-ligandome in HROG02, HROG17 and RA GBM cell lines. The effect of CIITA expression on the induction of the HLA-II presentation machinery was striking in each of the three cell lines, and it was significantly higher compared to IFNɣ treatment. In total, we identified 16,123 unique HLA-I peptides and 32,690 unique HLA-II peptides. In order to genuinely define the identified peptides as true HLA ligands, we carefully characterized their association with the different HLA allotypes. In addition, we identified 138 and 279 HLA-I and HLA-II ligands, respectively, most of which are novel in GBM, derived from known GBM-associated tumor-antigens that have been used as source proteins for a variety of GBM vaccines. Our data further indicate that CIITA-expressing GBM cells acquired an antigen presenting cell-like phenotype as we found that they directly present external proteins as HLA-II ligands. Not only that CIITA-expressing GBM cells are attractive models for antigen discovery endeavors, but such engineered cells have great therapeutic potential through massive presentation of a diverse antigenic repertoire.
