CMV has been ubiquitously detected within high-grade gliomas, but its role in gliomagenesis has not been fully elicited. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) tumors were analyzed by flow cytometry to determine CMV antigen expression within various glioma-associated immune populations. The gCSC CMV IL-10 production was determined by ELISA. Human monocytes were stimulated with recombinant CMV IL-10 and levels of expression of p-STAT3, VEGF, TGF-β, viral IE1 and pp65 were determined by flow cytometry. The influence of CMV IL-10 treated monocytes on gCSC biology was ascertained by functional assays. CMV demonstrated a tropism for macrophages (MΦs)/microglia and CD133+ gCSCs within GBMs. The gCSCs produce CMV IL-10, which induces human monocytes (the precursor to the CNS MΦs/microglia) to assume an M2 immunosuppressive phenotype (as manifested by down modulation of the major histocompatibility complex and costimulatory molecules) while up regulating immune inhibitory B7-H1. CMV IL-10 also induces expression of viral IE1, a modulator of viral replication and transcription in the monocytes. Finally, the CMV IL-10-treated monocytes produced angiogeneic VEGF, immunosuppressive TGF-β, and enhanced migration of gCSCs. CMV triggers a feed-forward mechanism of gliomagenesis by inducing tumor-supportive monocytes.
