英文摘要
Abstract
Our past research has provided considerable insight into the signals elicited through G-protein coupled
receptors (GPCRs) that activate RhoA on astrocytes and in 1321N1 glioblastoma cells. The pathways
regulated through PAR1 and S1P receptors via G12/13 engagement include RhoA activation to increase cell
proliferation, survival, and invasion-hallmarks of cancer. Our recent studies demonstrate robust activation of
the transcriptional co-activators MRTF-A and YAP through RhoA signaling in glioblastoma cells, and implicate
altered gene expression in proliferative and migratory responses. The objective of this proposal is to
demonstrate that robust transcriptional gene programs elicited through RhoA signaling are critical to
glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) tumor growth and maintenance of glioblastoma stem cells (GSC), with a long
term goal of identifying new therapeutic targets for this devastating disease. Aim #1 uses the human 1321N1
glioblastoma cell line to define cellular events and identify changes in specific target genes by which GPCRs
and RhoA engage transcriptional pathways that contribute to cancer-relevant cellular responses. S1P- and
thrombin-induced proliferation, survival, adhesion, migration, invasion and angiogenesis are assessed in WT
and MRTF-A or YAP CRISPR/Cas9 KO cells. Data from RNA seq analysis are used to identify critical
regulated genes, and tested for their functional importance in cellular responses. Actions of target genes on,
autocrine and transcriptional pathways that amplify response to GPCRs and RhoA are considered. Aim #2
uses patient-derived glioblastoma xenografts (PDX), as a model of glioblastoma stem cells. Several PDX lines
will be grown in serum free medium in vitro as neurospheres or adherent cultures and subsequently implanted
as orthotopic (brain) xenografts... YAP, MRTF-A, RhoA and their downstream target genes will be knocked
down using shRNA and in vitro stem cell markers, cellular responses and in vivo tumor growth assessed. Aim
#3 tests the hypothesis that RhoA-mediated transcriptional signaling leads to astrocyte dedifferentiation and
gliomagenesis driven by activated Ras). Proof of principle experiments examine dedifferentiation of isolated
mouse astrocytes infected with lentiviruses encoding oncogenic Ras and in which molecules in the RhoA
signaling pathway are genetically deleted or knocked down with shRNAs. In vivo studies of gliomagenesis are
carried out by delivery of oncogenes by lentiviral infection into the hippocampus of GFAP-Cre mice followed by
analysis of tumor growth, invasion, and changes in expression of target genes and stem cell markers. The
overall findings from these studies should demonstrate that GPCR- and RhoA-mediated transcriptional
activation can elicit genetic and functional responses that contribute to dysregulation in glioblastoma, and that
RhoA signaling contributes to the oncogenic effect of established GBM tumor drivers. The health-related
significance is that these findings could shift the focus of current research and clinical practice from the
established disease drivers towards consideration of GPCR- and RhoA-regulated signaling pathways in GBM.
