The STEMRI trial: magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging can define tumor areas enriched in glioblastoma-stem-like cells

ABSTRACT: Despite maximally-safe resection of the MRI-defined contrast-enhanced (CE) central tumor area and chemo-radiotherapy, most glioblastoma patients relapse within one year in peritumor FLAIR regions. Spectroscopic MRI (MRSI) can discriminate metabolic tumor areas with higher recurrence potential as CNI+ regions (Choline/N-acetyl-aspartate Index>2) can predict relapse sites. As relapses are mainly imputed to glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSC), CNI+ areas might be GSC-enriched. We conducted a prospective trial in 16 GBM patients subjected to preoperative MRSI/MRI and surgery/chemo-radiotherapy to investigate GSC content in CNI+ versus CNI- biopsies from CE/FLAIR. Biopsy characterization by RNAseq revealed that FLAIR/CNI+ areas were enriched in stem-related gene signature, but also in pathways related to DNA repair, adhesion/migration and mitochondrial bioenergetics.

Project description:Gene expression in glioblastoma cells from patients before treatment. The cells were inhibited or not for FGFR1. Glioblastoma are known to be aggressive and therapy-resistant tumors, due to the presence of glioblastoma stem cells (GSC) inside this heterogeneous tumor. We investigate here the involvement of FGFR1 in glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSLC) radioresistance mechanisms. We first demonstrated that the survival after irradiation was significantly diminished in FGFR1-silenced (FGFR1-) GSLC compared to control GSLC. The transcriptome analysis of GSLCs FGFR1(-) showed that FOX family members are differentially regulated by FGFR1 inhibition, particularly with an upregulation of FOXN3 and a downregulation of FOXM1. GSLC survival after irradiation was significantly increased after FOXN3 silencing and decreased after FOXM1 inhibition, showing opposite effects of FGFR1/FOX family members on cell response to ionizing radiation. Silencing FGFR1 or FOXM1 downregulated genes involved in mesenchymal transition such as GLI2, TWIST1, and ZEB1 in GSC. It also dramatically reduced GSLC migration, strongly suggesting that FGFR1/FOXM1 pathway which regulates GSLC radioresistance. Databases analysis confirmed that the combined expression of FGFR1/FOXM1/MELK/GLI2/ZEB1/TWIST1 is significantly associated with patients overall survival after chemo-radiotherapy treatment. All these results, associated with our previous conduced ones with differentiated cells, clearly established that FGFR1-FOXM1 dependent GSC radioresistance pathway is a central actor of GBM treatment resistance and a key target to inhibit in the aim to increase the sensitivity of GBM to the radiotherapy.

MiRNome profiling of glioblastoma tissues and peritumoral regions

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest primary brain tumor. Its prognosis is inexorably unfavorable, as these tumors drive affected patients to death usually within 15 months after diagnosis (short term survivors, ST), with the only exception of a small fraction of patients (long term survivors, LT) surviving longer than 36 months. Even after the frontline therapeutic approach, including surgical resection followed by chemo- and radiotherapy, the cause of death in most cases is tumor recurrence, which occurs in peritumoral tissues in about 95% of patients. Here, we provide a comprehensive molecular analysis of a set of ST and LT samples derived from frankly tumoral areas (C) and from the peritumoral regions (P) of the same patients. By performing microRNA deep sequencing, we collected data showing that P areas differ from healthy white matter, but share with C samples, a number of microRNAs

RNA-seq analysis of glioblastoma stem cells where MEOX2 expression was knocked down by shRNAs

Project description:The most widely accepted hypothesis about glioblastoma onset indicates glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) as the cells of origin, also responsible for the high chemo- and radio-resistance of this tumor and of its recurrence. MEOX2 is a transcription factor overexpressed in glioblastoma, whose expression is negatively correlated to patients’ survival. Starting from our observation that MEOX2 expression is strongly enhanced in six GSC lines we tested, we performed shRNA-mediated knock-down experiments in two different GSC lines, and found that MEOX2 depletion inhibits their self-renewal and growth ability, and increases the apoptotic cell death. By a deep transcriptome analysis, we identified a core group of genes modulated in response to MEOX2 knock-down. Among these genes, the repressed ones are largely enriched in genes involved in the hypoxic response and in the glycolytic pathway, two strictly related pathways which contribute to the resistance of high grade gliomas to therapies.

GDNF/GFRA1 signaling contributes to chemo- and radioresistance in glioblastoma

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults, characterized by an inherent aggressivity and resistance to treatment leading to poor prognoses. While some resistance mechanisms have been elucidated, a deeper understanding of these mechanisms is needed to increase therapeutic efficacy. In this study we first discovered glial-cell derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to be upregulated in patient-derived glioblastoma spheroid cultures after chemotherapeutic temozolomide (TMZ) treatment, through RNA-Seq experiments. Therefore, we investigated the role of the GDNF/GDNF receptor alpha 1 (GFRA1) signaling pathway as a resistance mechanism to chemotherapy with temozolomide and lomustine as well as irradiation using patient-derived glioblastoma spheroid cultures. With qPCR experiments we showed a consistent upregulation of GDNF and its primary receptor GFRA1 following all three lines of treatment. Moreover, CRISPR/Cas9 knock-outs of GDNF in two patient-derived models sensitized these cells to chemotherapy treatment, but not radiotherapy. The increased sensitivity was completely reversed by the addition of exogeneous GDNF, confirming the key role of this factor in chemoresistance. Finally, a CRISPR KO of GFRA1 demonstrated a similar increased sensitivity to temozolomide and lomustine treatment, as well as radiotherapy. Together, our findings support the role of the GDNF/GFRA1 signaling pathway in glioblastoma chemo and radioresistance.

Identification and molecular characterization of distinct glioblastoma cancer stem cell populations

Project description:Malignant glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor with a dismal prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Genomic profiling of GBM samples in the TCGA database has identified four molecular subtypes (Proneural, Neural, Classical and Mesenchymal), which may arise from different glioblastoma stem-like cell (GSC) populations. In the present study, we identify two GSC populations that produce GBM tumors by subcutaneous and intracranial injection with identical histological features. Gene expression analysis revealed that xenografts of GSCs grown as spheroid cultures had a Classical molecular subtype similar to that of bulk tumor cells. In contrast xenografts of GSCs grown as adherent cultures on laminin-coated plates expressed a Mesenchymal gene signature. Adherent GSC-derived xenografts had high STAT3 and ANGPTL4 expression as well as enrichment for stem cell markers, transcriptional networks and pro-angiogenic markers characteristic of the Mesenchymal subtype. Examination of clinical samples from GBM patients showed that STAT3 expression was directly correlated with ANGPTL4 expression, and that increased expression of these genes correlated with poor patient survival and performance. A pharmacological STAT3 inhibitor abrogated STAT3 binding to the ANGPTL4 promoter and exhibited anticancer activity in vivo. Taken together, we identified two distinct GSC populations that produce histologically identical tumors but with very different gene expression patterns, and a STAT3/ ANGPTL4 pathway in glioblastoma that may serve as a target for therapeutic intervention. 2 samples of each variable were analyzed. Cells were cultured under normal adherent conditon (Bulk tumor cells), non-adherent plates with stem cell medium (Sp-GSC) or laminin-coated plates with stem cell medium (Ad-GSC). Xenografts were generated in NSG mice by subcutaneous inoculation.

Glioblastoma stem cells after RNF8 overexpression

Project description:RNF8 is downregulated in glioblastoma and low RNF8 expression correlates with poor patient prognosis. Overexpression (OE) of RNF8 in glioblastoma stem cell (GSC) impairs its proliferation and tumorigenicity, and the anti-cancer effects of RNF8 are dependent on both its FHA and RING domains. Paradoxically, transcriptomic analysis of RNF8 OE GSC reveals cell cycle as the top upregulated pathway. Mechanistically, RNF8 interacts with the mitotic checkpoint protein MAD2 in a RING domain-dependent manner to induce spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) activation. RNF8 OE GSC displays increase level of aneuploidy and micronuclei formation, suggesting that RNF8 promotes chromosomal instability (CIN) in GSC through persistent SAC activation.
