Project description:Neuronal activity promotes high-grade glioma (HGG) growth. An important mechanism mediating this neural regulation of brain cancer is activity-dependent cleavage and secretion of the synaptic molecule and glioma mitogen neuroligin-3 (Nlgn3), but the therapeutic potential of targeting Nlgn3 in glioma remains to be defined. We demonstrate a striking dependence of HGG growth on microenvironmental Nlgn3 and determine a targetable mechanism of secretion. Patient-derived orthotopic xenografts of pediatric glioblastoma, diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma and adult glioblastoma fail to grow in Nlgn3 knockout mice. Glioma exposure to Nlgn3 results in numerous signaling consequences, including early focal adhesion kinase activation upstream of PI3K-mTOR. Nlgn3 is cleaved from both neurons and oligodendrocyte precursor cells via the ADAM10 sheddase. Administration of ADAM10 inhibitors robustly blocks HGG xenograft growth. This work defines the therapeutic potential of and a promising strategy for targeting Nlgn3 secretion in the glioma microenvironment, which could prove transformative for treatment of HGG.

Abstract:
Due to their location, the malignant gliomas of the brain in humans are very difficult to treat in advanced stages. Blood-based biomarkers for glioma are needed for more accurate evaluation of treatment response as well as early diagnosis. However, biomarker research in primary brain tumors is challenging given their relative rarity and genetic diversity. It is further complicated by variations in the permeability of the blood brain barrier that affects the amount of marker released into the bloodstream. Inspired by recent temporal data indicating a possible decrease in serum glucose levels in patients with gliomas yet to be diagnosed, we present an ordinary differential equation model to capture early stage glioma growth. The model contains glioma-glucose-immune interactions and poses a potential mechanism by which this glucose drop can be explained. We present numerical simulations, parameter sensitivity analysis, linear stability analysis and a numerical experiment whereby we show how a dormant glioma can become malignant.

Project description:The recent discovery of mutations in metabolic enzymes has rekindled interest in harnessing the altered metabolism of cancer cells for cancer therapy. One potential drug target is isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) which is mutated in multiple human cancers. Here, we examine the role of mutant IDH1 in fully transformed cells with endogenous IDH1 mutations. A selective R132H-IDH1 inhibitor (AGI-5198) identified through a high-throughput screen dose-dependently blocked the ability of the mutant enzyme (mIDH1) to produce R-2-hydroxyglutarate (R-2HG). Under conditions of near complete R-2HG inhibition, the mIDH1 inhibitor induced demethylation of histone H3K9M3 and expression of genes associated with gliogenic differentiation. Blockade of mIDH1 impaired the growth of IDH1-mutant - but not IDH1-wildtype – glioma cells without appreciable changes in genome wide DNA methylation. These data suggest that mIDH1 may promote glioma growth through mechanisms beyond its well-characterized epigenetic effects. Xenograft experiments were carried out with treatment cohorts of vehicle, 150mg/kg/day, 450mg/kg/day. After the indicated tumors were harvested and genomic DNA was extracted and analyzed by the Illumina 450k Methylation array.

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a fatal form of cancer that frequently metastasizes to the brain. Here we investigated the mechanisms allowing SCLC cells to grow in the unique brain microenvironment. We found that neuronal programs upregulated in SCLC cells during tumor progression and upon growth in the brain are critical for SCLC growth in the brain. Mechanistically, the presence of SCLC cells in the brain re-activates astrocytes, which in turn promote the survival of SCLC cells by secreting neuronal pro-survival factors such as SERPINE1. We also identified Reelin, a molecule produced by developing neurons to recruit astrocytes, as a molecule secreted by SCLC cells to recruit astrocytes to the tumor site and promote SCLC growth in the brain. Thus, SCLC cells co-opt mechanisms normally at play between astrocytes and neurons to promote SCLC growth in the brain. Targeting such developmental neuronal programs may help treat brain metastases.

Project description:The process of synapse turnover is regulated by specific signaling mechanisms. Various molecules that promote formation and differentiation of synapses have been identified. Some of these molecules were classified as “synapse organizers,” as they were shown to initiate differentiation of hemi-synapses when they were expressed in non-neuronal cells and co-cultured with neurons.On the other hand, little is known about the mechanisms underlying destabilization and elimination of unnecessary synapses. We used microarray profiling of dissociated hippocampal culture to identify genes in response to the down-regulation of neuronal activity in hippocampal neurons.

Samples were maintained in either DMSO or 1.5uM 5198 for 2 passages up to 20 passages. Biological replicates for each passage and treatment was collected and genomic DNA was extracted and analyzed on the Illumina 450K Methylation platform for a total of 16 samples.
