Patient-derived glioblastoma cell lines with conserved genome profiles of the original tissue.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal intracranial tumor. Sequencing technologies have supported personalized therapy for precise diagnosis and optimal treatment of GBM by revealing clinically actionable molecular characteristics. Although accumulating sequence data from brain tumors and matched normal tissues have facilitated a comprehensive understanding of genomic features of GBM, these in silico evaluations could gain more biological credibility when they are verified with in vitro and in vivo models. From this perspective, GBM cell lines with whole exome sequencing (WES) datasets of matched tumor tissues and normal blood are suitable biological platforms to not only investigate molecular markers of GBM but also validate the applicability of druggable targets. Here, we provide a complete WES dataset of 26 GBM patient-derived cell lines along with their matched tumor tissues and blood to demonstrate that cell lines can mostly recapitulate genomic profiles of original tumors such as mutational signatures and copy number alterations.

Project description:Despite numerous efforts aiming to characterise glioblastoma pathology (GBM) and discover new therapeutic strategies, GBM remains one of the most challenging tumours to treat. Here we propose the optimisation of in vitro culturing of GBM patient-derived cells, namely the establishment of GBM-derived cultures and their maintenance at oxygen tension mimicking oxygenation conditions occurring within the tumour. To globally analyse cell states, we performed the transcriptome analysis of GBM patient-derived cells kept as spheroids in serum-free conditions at the reduced oxygen tension (5% O2), cells cultured at atmospheric oxygen (20% O2), and parental tumour. Immune cells present in the tumour were depleted, resulting in the decreased expression of the immune system and inflammation-related genes. The expression of genes promoting cell proliferation and DNA repair was higher in GBM cell cultures when compared to the relevant tumour sample. However, lowering oxygen tension to 5% did not affect the proliferation rate and expression of cell cycle and DNA repair genes in GBM cell cultures. Culturing GBM cells at 5% oxygen was sufficient to increase the expression of specific stemness markers, particularly the PROM1 gene, without affecting neural cell differentiation markers. GBM spheroids cultured at 5% oxygen expressed higher levels of hypoxia-inducible genes, including those encoding glycolytic enzymes and pro-angiogenic factors. The genes up-regulated in cells cultured at 5% oxygen had higher expression in parental GBMs compared to that observed in 20% cell cultures, suggesting the preservation of the hypoxic component of GBM transcriptome at 5% oxygen and its loss in standard culture conditions. Evaluation of expression of those genes in The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset comprising samples of normal brain tissue, lower-grade gliomas and GBMs indicated the expression pattern of the indicated genes was specific for GBM. Moreover, GBM cells cultured at 5% oxygen were more resistant to temozolomide, the chemotherapeutic used in GBM therapy. The presented comparison of GBM cultures maintained at high and low oxygen tension together with analysis of tumour transcriptome indicates that lowering oxygen tension during cell culture may more allegedly reproduce tumour cell behaviour within GBM than standard culture conditions (e.g., atmospheric oxygen tension). Low oxygen culture conditions should be considered as a more appropriate model for further studies on glioblastoma pathology and therapy.
