Cilium induction triggers differentiation of glioma stem cells

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) possesses glioma stem cells (GSCs) that promote self-renewal, tumor propagation, and relapse. Understanding the mechanisms of GSCs self-renewal can offer targeted therapeutic interventions. However, insufficient knowledge of the fundamental biology of GSCs is a significant bottleneck hindering these efforts. Here, we show that patient-derived GSCs recruit an elevated level of proteins that ensure the temporal cilium disassembly, leading to suppressed ciliogenesis. Depleting the cilia disassembly complex components at the ciliary base is sufficient to induce ciliogenesis in a subset of GSCs via sequestering PDGFR-α from its original location to newly induced cilium. Importantly, restoring ciliogenesis caused GSCs to behave like healthy NPCs switching from self-renewal to differentiation. Finally, using an organoid-based glioma invasion assay and brain xenografts in mice, we establish that ciliogenesis-induced differentiation can prevent the infiltration of GSCs into the brain. Our findings illustrate a crucial role for cilium as a molecular switch in determining GSCs' fate and suggest that cilium induction is an attractive strategy to intervene in GSCs proliferation.

LncRNA INHEG promotes glioma stem cell maintenance and tumorigenicity through regulating rRNA 2’-O methylation

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) ranks among the most lethal of human cancers, containing glioma stem cells (GSCs) that display therapeutic resistance. Here, we report that the lncRNA INHEG is highly expressed in GSCs compared to differentiated glioma cells (DGCs) and promotes GSC self-renewal through control of rRNA 2’-O-methylation. INHEG induces the interaction between a novel SUMO E3 ligase TAF15 and NOP58, a core component of snoRNP that guides rRNA methylation, to regulate NOP58 sumoylation and accelerate the C/D box snoRNP assembly. INHEG activation enhances rRNA 2’-O-methylation, thereby increasing the translation of oncogenic proteins including EGFR and IGF1R in glioma cells. Taken together, this study identifies a lncRNA that connects snoRNP-guided rRNA 2’-O-methylation to upregulated protein translation in GSCs, supporting a new axis for potential therapeutic targeting of gliomas.

Differential requirement for centriolar satellites in cilium formation and ciliary signaling among different vertebrate cells

Project description:Centriolar satellites are an array of membrane-less granules that localize and move around the vertebrate centrosome/cilium complex. They have recently emerged as key regulators of the biogenesis and function of the centrosome/cilium-complex and their mutations are linked to ciliopathies. Although centriolar satellites are ubiquitous structures of the vertebrate cells, their precise function and molecular mechanism of action in different cell types remain poorly understood. Here, we generated kidney and retinal epithelial cells that lack centriolar satellites by genetically ablating their scaffolding protein PCM1 and investigated the cellular and molecular consequences of satellite loss in cells. We showed that centriolar satellites are required for cilium assembly, regulation of ciliary content, timely response to Hedgehog signals and three- dimensional epithelial cell organization, but not for cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and centriole duplication. Importantly, the requirement for centriolar satellites in cilium assembly varied between retinal and kidney epithelial cells and we identified the differences in the efficiency of targeting key ciliogenesis factors to the centrosome including Mib1 and Talpid3 as the likely molecular basis for this phenotypic variability. Quantitative global transcriptomic and proteomic profiling of satellite-less cells showed that loss of centriolar satellites does not lead to a major transcriptional response, but leads to a significant rearrangement of the global proteome. Together, our findings identify important roles for centriolar satellites in key cilium-related cellular processes through regulating the proteostasis and centrosomal/ciliary targeting of proteins and provide insight into the disease mechanisms of ciliopathies.

EZH2-mediated primary cilium deconstruction drives metastatic melanoma formation

Project description:Human melanomas frequently harbor amplifications of EZH2. However, the oncogenic contribution of this methyltransferase to melanoma formation has remained elusive. Taking advantage of murine melanoma models, we now show that EZH2 drives tumorigenesis from benign BrafV600E or NrasQ61K-expressing melanocytes. EZH2 oncogenicity results from silencing of genes relevant for the integrity of the primary cilium, a signaling organelle projecting from the surface of vertebrate cells. Consequently, gain of EZH2 function promotes loss of primary cilia in benign melanocytic lesions. In contrast, blockade of EZH2 activity evokes ciliogenesis and cilia-dependent growth inhibition in malignant melanoma. Finally, we demonstrate that loss of cilia enhances pro-tumorigenic WNT/β-catenin signaling and is itself sufficient to drive metastatic melanoma in benign cells. Thus, primary cilia deconstruction is a key process in EZH2-driven melanomagenesis.

Patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells transcriptome regulation by CD109

Project description:Glioma stem cells (GSCs) drive propagation and therapeutic resistance of glioblastomas, the most aggressive diffuse brain tumor. However, the molecular mechanisms that maintain the stemness and promote therapy resistance remain poorly understood. Here we study CD109 – STAT3 axis as crucial for the maintenance of stemness and tumorigenicity of GSCs and as a mediator of chemoresistance. Mechanistically, CD109 physically interacts with glycoprotein 130 (GP130) to promote activation of the IL-6/STAT3 pathway in GSCs. Genetic depletion of CD109 abolished the stemness and self-renewal of GSCs and impaired tumorigenicity. Loss of stemness was accompanied with a phenotypic shift of GSCs to more differentiated astrocytic-like cells. Importantly, genetic or pharmacologic targeting of CD109 – STAT3 axis sensitized the GSCs to chemotherapy suggesting that targeting CD109 – STAT3 axis has potential to overcome therapy resistance in glioblastoma.

Serine/Threonine kinase MLK4 determines Mesenchymal identify in glioma stem cells in an NFkB-dependent manner

Project description:Activation of NF-kB induces MES trans-differentiation and radio-resistance in glioma stem cells (GSCs), but molecular mechanisms for NF-kB activation in GSCs are currently unknown. Here we report that Mixed Lineage Kinase 4 (MLK4) is overexpressed in MES but not PN GSCs. Silencing MLK4 suppresses self-renewal, motility, tumorigenesis, and radio-resistance of MES GSCs via a loss of the MES signature. MLK4 binds and phosphorylates the NF-κB regulator IKKα, leading to activation of NF-κB signaling in GSCs. MLK4 expression is inversely correlated with patient prognosis in MES, but not PN high-grade gliomas. Collectively, our results uncover MLK4 as an upstream regulator of NF-kB signaling and a potential molecular target for the MES subtype of GBMs. We used microarrays to validate MLK4 target gene expression.

Piwil1 Regulates Glioma Stem Cell Maintenance and Glioblastoma Progression

Project description:Piwi proteins are a subfamily of Argonaute proteins that maintain germ cells in eukaryotes. However, the role of their human homologues in cancer stem cells and more broadly in cancer is poorly understood. Here, we report that the Piwi-like family members, including Piwil1 (Hiwi), are overexpressed in glioblastoma (GBM), with Piwil1 levels most frequently elevated. Piwil1 is enriched in glioma stem cells (GSCs) and helps to maintain their self-renewal. GSCs were transduces with control non-targeting shRNAs (shNT) and shPiwil1 (#1 and #2) and global gene expression was analyzed to identify Piwil1 downscream singalings.

EGFR/FOXO3a/BIM signalling pathway determines chemosensitivity of BMP4-differentiated glioma stem cells to temozolomide

Project description:Accumulating evidence suggests that glioma stem cells (GSCs), rare cells characterised by pluripotency and self-renewal, are responsible for glioblastoma (GBM) propagation, recurrence and resistance to therapy. Differentiation with bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) is considered to be a promising approach to eliminate GSCs and sensitise glioma to chemotherapeutics. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene alterations are detected in more than a half of GBMs, however, the role of EGFR in chemoresistance of glioma stem cells remain elusive. Here, we investigated whether EGFR signalling affects BMP4-induced differentiation of GSCs and their response to an alkylating drug temozolomide (TMZ). We show that BMP4 triggers Smad signalling cascade in glioma stem cells independently of the EGFR level. BMP4 down-regulated levels of pluripotency markers (SOX2 and OLIG2) with the concomitant induction of astrocytic (GFAP) and neuronal (b-Tubulin III) markers. However, significant differences in chemotherapy outcomes were observed in glioma stem cells with different EGFR levels. BMP4-induced differentiation did not enhance sensitivity to TMZ in EGFRlow GSCs, in contrast to EGFRhigh GSCs, which were undergoing apoptosis. We identified differences in cell cycle regulation by analyses of cell cycle phase distribution and cell-cycle-related proteins. In cells with lower EGFR expression BMP4 triggered the G1 cell cycle arrest, not detected in EGFRhigh cells. RNA-seq profiles further highlighted transcriptomic alternations and distinct processes characterizing EGFR-dependent responses in course of BMP4-induced differentiation. We identified AKT/FOXO3a axis controlling of BIM (the pro-apoptotic BCL-2 family protein) as operating only in EGFRhigh BMP4-differentiated and TMZ-treated cells.
