Hijacking a neurodevelopmental epigenomic program in metastatic dissemination of medulloblastoma [ATAC-Seq]


ABSTRACT: How dysregulation of neurodevelopment relates to medulloblastoma (MB), the most common pediatric brain tumor, remains elusive. Here, we uncovered a neurodevelopmental epigenomic program being hijacked to induce MB metastatic dissemination. Unsupervised analyses by integrating publicly available datasets with our newly generated data revealed that SMARCD3/BAF60C regulates DAB1-mediated Reelin signaling in Purkinje cell migration and MB metastasis by orchestrating cis-regulatory elements (CREs) at the DAB1 locus. We further identified that a core set of transcription factors, enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) and nuclear factor I X (NFIX), coordinates with the CREs at the SMARCD3 locus to form a chromatin hub for controlling SMARCD3 expression in the developing cerebellum and metastatic MB. Elevated SMARCD3 activates Reelin/DAB1-mediated Src kinase signaling, resulting in MB response to Src inhibition. These data deepen our understanding of how neurodevelopmental programming influences disease progression and provide a potential therapeutic option for MB patients.
