Suppression of Tumorigenicity by MicroRNA-138 Through Inhibition of EZH2-CDK4/6-pRb-E2F1 Signal Loop in Glioblastoma MultiformeQiu, Shuwei, Huang, Daquan, Yin, Deling, Li, Fangcheng, Li, Xiangping, Kung, Hsiang fu, Peng, Ying 01 October 2013 (has links)
Deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is implicated in tumor progression. We attempt to indentify the tumor suppressive miRNA not only down-regulated in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) but also potent to inhibit the oncogene EZH2, and then investigate the biological function and pathophysiologic role of the candidate miRNA in GBM. In this study, we show that miRNA-138 is reduced in both GBM clinical specimens and cell lines, and is effective to inhibit EZH2 expression. Moreover, high levels of miR-138 are associated with long overall and progression-free survival of GBM patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset (TCGA) data portal. Ectopic expression of miRNA-138 effectively inhibits GBM cell proliferation in vitro and tumorigenicity in vivo through inducing cell cycles G1/S arrest. Mechanism investigation reveals that miRNA-138 acquires tumor inhibition through directly targeting EZH2, CDK6, E2F2 and E2F3. Moreover, an EZH2-mediated signal loop, EZH2-CDK4/6-pRb-E2F1, is probably involved in GBM tumorigenicity, and this loop can be blocked by miRNA-138. Additionally, miRNA-138 negatively correlates to mRNA levels of EZH2 and CDK6 among GBM clinical samples from both TCGA and our small amount datasets. In conclusion, our data demonstrate a tumor suppressive role of miRNA-138 in GBM tumorigenicity, suggesting a potential application in GBM therapy.

Role of reactive oxygen species in Glioblastoma multiforme microsatellite instabilityWilkinson-Busha, Kortney Lynnette 30 April 2011 (has links)
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive and almost always fatal brain tumor. GBM literature indicates defective mismatch repair (MMR) mechanisms are not involved in GBM tumorigenesis as in other tumors, and instigating mechanisms of GBM tumorigenesis remain unclear. GBM and neural progenitor (NPR) cells were exposed to three concentrations of H2O2 (0, 0.5, and 1.0 μM), cultured, and then harvested 0, 2, 4, and 6 days post-exposure; DNA from cells was amplified with microsatellite primers, investigating whether or not H2O2 exposure affected microsatellite instability (MSI) in target sequences. Three out of six markers showed significant MSI in the H2O2-exposed NPR cells. Our results suggest H2O2, which generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), correlated with MSI accumulation that occurred in NPR cells in specific DNA regions. Thus, gene expression analysis to assess normal and abnormal gene expression of GBM and NPR cellss is warranted.

Oncolytic herpes simplex virus immuno-virotherapy in combination with TIGIT immune checkpoint blockade to treat glioblastomaKelley, Hunter 04 February 2023 (has links)
OBJECTIVE: The overarching goal of this study was to examine the immunostimulatory potential of oHSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 in syngeneic murine GBM models, perform in vitro screens for upregulation of immune checkpoint molecules in infected glioma cells, and evaluate the antitumor activity of the most promising combination immunovirotherapies.
METHODS: The oncolytic activity of HSV-1 rQNestin34.5 was evaluated in CT-2A and GL261 syngeneic murine glioma models. Immunoassays were conducted to assess secretion of damage associated molecular patterns including ATP, HMGB1, Calreticulin, HSP70 and other proinflammatory mediators by infected glioma cells. In vitro screens for expression of inhibitory ligands by glioma cells following HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 infection at various doses were analyzed by flow cytometry. Intratumoral HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 administration and/or intraperitoneal anti-TIGIT (clone 1B4)/anti-NK1.1 treatments were performed in C57BL/6 mice bearing orthotopic CT-2A glioma to determine effect on overall survival.
RESULTS: HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 exhibited greater capacity to infect CT-2A and minimal capacity to infect GL261 cells suggesting differences in permissiveness in HSV- 1 replication between the two GBM models. Infection stimulated immunogenic cell death as evidenced by surface expression of calreticulin and HSP70 and elevated extracellular release of ATP and HMGB1 in the GL261 model. CD155 and CD112 (both ligands of TIGIT) as well as PD-L1 were significantly highly expressed in glioma cells. TIGIT was found to be overexpressed in tumor infiltrating NK, CD4 and CD8 T cells suggesting systemic therapy with TIGIT blockade antibodies could have therapeutic utility in combination with HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 in GBM. Benefit in overall survival was not observed by anti-TIGIT monotherapy, and combination treatment with HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 exhibited modest therapeutic effect with a cure rate 25% in mice bearing intracranial CT-2A tumors. Depletion of NK cells prior to HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 administration attenuated brain edema and synergized with rQNestin34.5v2 virotherapy.
CONCLUSION: Our findings show that the combination of HSV-1 rQNestin34.5v2 virotherapy with anti-TIGIT checkpoint blockade immunotherapy and/or NK cell inhibition represents a promising strategy to overcome primary resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors in GBM. / 2025-02-03T00:00:00Z

A systematic review on the characteristics, treatments and outcomes of the patients with primary spinal glioblastomas or gliosarcomas reported in literature until March 2015Beyer, Stefanie, von Bueren, André O., Klautke, Gunther, Guckenberger, Matthias, Kortmann, Rolf-Dieter, Pietschmann, Sophie, Müller, Klaus 08 June 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Our aim was to determine the characteristics, treatments and outcomes of patients with primary spinal glioblastomas (GB) or gliosarcomas (GS) reported in literature until March 2015. PubMed and Web of Science were searched for peer-reviewed articles pertaining to cases of glioblastomas / gliosarcomas with primary spinal origin, using predefined search terms. Furthermore we performed hand searches tracking the references from the selected papers. Eighty-two articles published between 1938 and March 2015 were eligible. They reported on 157 patients. Median age at diagnosis was 22 years. The proportion of patients who received adjuvant chemo- or radiotherapy clearly increased from the time before 1980 until present. Median overall survival from diagnosis was 8.0 ± 0.9 months. On univariate analysis age influenced overall survival, whereas tumor location, gender and the extent of initial resection did not. Outcomes did not differ between children (< 18 years) and adults. However, the patients who were treated after 1980 achieved longer survival times than the patients treated before. On multivariable analysis only age (< 60 years) and the time period of treatment (>1980) were confirmed as positive independent prognostic factors. In conclusion, primary spinal GB / GS mainly affect younger patients and are associated with a dismal prognosis. However, most likely due to the increasing use of adjuvant treatment, modest therapeutic progress has been achieved over recent decades. The characteristics and treatments of primary spinal glioblastomas should be entered into a central registry in order to gain more information about the ideal treatment approach in the future.

Einfluss der Radikalität der Resektion eines Glioblastoma multiforme in Kombination mit einer adjuvanten Chemotherapie auf das SurvivalHubertus, Jochen 25 January 2005 (has links)
Ziel: Den Einfluss der Radikalität der Resektion eines Glioblastoma multiforme in Kombination mit einer adjuvanten Chemotherapie auf das Survival heraus zu arbeiten. Methoden: Zwischen 1997 und 2000 wurden 55 Patienten, die an einem primären Glioblastoma multiforme erkrankten, einer Tumorresektion unterzogen. Von den 55 Patienten waren 36 männlich und 19 weiblich. Im Mittel erkrankten die Patienten mit 56 Jahren. Tumorresektion und Radiatio wurden bei allen Patienten durchgeführt. 20 Patienten wurden darüber hinaus noch mit einer adjuvanten Chemotherapie behandelt. Ergebnisse: Die Patienten, die mit einer Chemotherapie behandelt wurden, zeigten ein signifikant längeres Überleben (85 versus 44 weeks). Und die Patienten mit einem postoperativen Resttumor profitierten am meisten von der adjuvanten Chemotherapie (75 versus 39 weeks). Zusammenfassung: Patienten, die mit einer adjuvanten Chemotherapie behandelt wurden zeigten ein signifikant längeres Überleben als die Patienten ohne diese Therapie. / Objective: To evaluate the influence of resection of a glioblastoma multiforme in combination with adjuvant chemotherapy regarding survival. Methods: From 1997 to 2000, 55 patients with primary glioblastoma multiforme underwent a tumor resection. Of the 55 patients 36 were male, 19 female, with an average age of 56 years. Tumor resection and radiatio were performed in all patients. 20 patients were treated additionally with chemotherapy. Results: Patients treated with chemotherapy displayed a significant longer survival (85 versus 44 weeks). And the patients with a residual postoperative tumor mass did benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy (75 versus 39 weeks). Conclusion: Patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy had a significant longer survival then those without this therapy.

Klinischer Verlauf und Analyse des Rezidivmusters von 111 Patienten mit anaplastischem Astrozytom oder Glioblastoma multiforme nach Operation und lokaler StrahlentherapieGraubner, Sebastian 25 May 2005 (has links)
Die vorliegende Arbeit ist eine retrospektive Kohortenstudie, welche alle Patienten einschloß, die im Zeitraum von 07/1988 bis 06/1997 aufgrund eines anaplastischen Astrozytoms oder eines Glioblastoma multiforme im damaligen Rudolf-Virchow-Klinikum in Berlin eine Strahlentherapie des Kopfes erhielten. Von den 111 Patienten erlitten im Beobachtungszeitraum 85 ein radiologisches Rezidiv. Die mediane Überlebenszeit betrug 9 Monate. 69 der Rezidive waren Zentralrezidive, 7 Randrezidive und 9 Fernrezidive. Auch die Rand- und Fernrezidive rezidivierten zusätzlich am Ort der Primärläsion. Es konnte gezeigt werden dass ein Sicherheitsabstand von 2-3 cm ausreicht um 90% der Rezidive vollständig zu erfassen und dass die lokale Kontrolle weiterhin das Hauptproblem bei der Behandlung dieser malignen Gliome ist. / This retrospective study reviews the data of 111 patients treated from 07/1988 to 06/1997 at the Rudolf-Virchow-Klinikum in Berlin. Both patients with anaplastic astrocytoma and glioblastoma multiforme were included. 85 patients showed radiological recurrence of tumour. Median survival was 9 months. 69 recurrences were central, 7 near and 9 distant recurrences. Near and distant recurrences were always multifocal, i. e. they recurred also at central locations. It was shown that a safety margin of 2-3 cm is sufficient to completely cover 90% of recurrent tumour. Local failure is still the primary difficulty in treating these malignant glioma.

Molecular Mechanisms Associated with Chromosomal and Microsatellite Instability in Sporadic Glioblastoma multiformeMartinez, Ramon, Schackert, Hans-K., Plaschke, Jens, Baretton, Gustavo, Appelt, Hella, Schackert, Gabriele 12 February 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Objective: Two chromosomal instability (CIN) pathways are described in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), type 1 and type 2, which can be observed in up to 70% of the cases. Microsatellite instability (MSI) plays a pathogenic role in sporadic cancers such as colon, gastric and endometrial carcinomas with deficient mismatch repair (MMR). We aimed to perform a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between CIN and MSI mechanisms in sporadic glioblastomas.
Methods: 129 GBMs were examined (109 newly diagnosed and 20 relapses) investigating MSI, immunohistochemical expression of MMR proteins as well as sequencing and promoter methylation of hMLH1. We characterized the molecular changes frequently correlated with CIN in MSI+ GBMs and compared them with 26 microsatellite-stable tumors.
Results: Low-level MSI was observed in 11 of 129 (8.5%) cases and was higher in relapses than in primary GBMs (25 vs. 5.5%, p = 0.027). High-level MSI was not found in any case. A deficient expression of MLH1 and PMS2 without hMLH1 inactivation was observed only in one giant cell GBM. 55% of the MSI+ GBMs showed a profile which did not correspond to one of the known CIN pathways. An inverse association was observed between MSI and mutations of both p53 and PTEN.
Conclusions: Our data suggest that CIN and MSI contribute to the genomic instability in GBMs via independent pathways. Since MSI was significantly more frequent in relapses, it might play a role in the malignant progression of GBM. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.
