[PMID: 37305351 PMCID: PMC10257548 DOI: 10.1155/2023/6840271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of hypoxia in benign meningiomas is less clear than that in the malignant meningiomas. Hypoxia-induced transcription factor 1 subunit alpha (HIF-1α) and its downstream signaling pathways play a central role in the mechanism of hypoxia. HIF-1α forms a complex with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) protein and can compete for ARNT with aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). In this work, the status of HIF-1α- and AhR-dependent signaling pathways was investigated in World Health Organization (WHO) grade 1 meningioma and patient-derived tumor primary cell culture under hypoxic conditions. mRNA levels of HIF-1α, AhR, and of their target genes as well as of ARNT and nuclear receptor coactivator NCOA2 were determined in tumor tissues from patients in whom the tumor was promptly removed either with or without prior endovascular embolization. Using the patient-derived nonembolized tumor primary cell culture, the effects of a hypoxia mimetic cobalt chloride (CoCl2) and an activator of the AhR signaling pathway benzo(α)pyrene (B[a]P) on mRNA levels of HIF-1α, AhR, and their target genes were investigated. Our findings show active functioning of AhR signaling in meningioma tissue of patients with tumor embolization and crosstalk between HIF-1α and AhR signaling in meningeal cells under hypoxia.

Programmed cell death 10 increased blood-brain barrier permeability through HMGB1/TLR4 mediated downregulation of endothelial ZO-1 in glioblastoma. Cell Signal 2023; 107:110683. [PMID: 37075875 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2023.110683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023]
Abstract
Dysfunction of blood brain barrier (BBB) contributes to the development of peritumoral edema (PTE) and GBM progression. Programmed cell death 10 (PDCD10) exerts various influence on cancers, especially in glioblastoma (GBM). We previously found that PDCD10 expression was positively correlated with PTE extent in GBM. Thus, the present study aims to investigate the emerging role of PDCD10 in regulating BBB permeability in GBM. Here we found that in vitro indirect co-culture of ECs with Pdcd10-overexpressed GL261 cells resulted in a significant increase of FITC-Dextran (MW, 4000) leakage by reducing endothelial zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) and Claudin-5 expression in ECs respectively. Overexpression of Pdcd10 in GBM cells (GL261) triggered an increase of soluble high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) release, which in turn activated endothelial toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) and downstream NF-κB, Erk1/2 and Akt signaling in ECs through a paracrine manner. Moreover, Pdcd10-overexpressed GL261 cells facilitated a formation of abnormal vasculature and increased the BBB permeability in vivo. Our present study demonstrates that upregulation of PDCD10 in GBM triggered HMGB1/TLR4 signaling in ECs and significantly decreased endothelial ZO-1 expression, which in turn dominantly increased BBB permeability and contributed to tumor progression in GBM.

Butta S, Gupta MK. HIF 1 α - a promising target for the treatment of meningiomas. Med Pharm Rep 2023; 96:170-174. [PMID: 37197281 PMCID: PMC10184527 DOI: 10.15386/mpr-2059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 05/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Meningiomas are the most frequent tumors of the brain and spinal cord with a potency to recur in around one third of the cases and and invade surrounding tissue. Hypoxia driven factors like HIFs (Hypoxia inducible factors) are implicated in tumor cell growth and proliferation. Aim This study aims at determining the association of HIF 1 α with different histopathological grades and types of meningiomas. Methods This prospective study was conducted on 35 patients. The patients presented with headache (65.71%), seizures (22.86%) and neurological deficits (11.43%). They underwent surgical excision and surgical tissue samples of these patients were histopathologically processed and microscopically graded and typed. Immunohistochemistry was performed using anti-HIF 1α monoclonal antibody. The nuclear expression of HIF 1 α was graded as <10%: negative, 11-50%: mild to moderate positive, >50%: strong positive. Results Of the 35 cases so examined 20% were recurrent; 74.29% were WHO grade I with meningothelial type (22.86%), being the commonest; 57.14 % revealed mild to moderate positivity for HIF 1α, while strong positivity was noted in 28.57%. Significant association was found between WHO grade and HIF 1α (p=0.0015) and between histopathological types and HIF 1α (p=0.0433). Furthermore, HIF 1α was also significantly associated with the recurrent cases (p=0.0172). Conclusion HIF 1α appears to be a marker and a promising target for effective therapeutics in meningiomas.

Abstract
Simple Summary The tumor microenvironment represents the essential basis for characterizing oncological cells and supporting their growth. Along with genomic sequencing, the study of the tumor microenvironment represents a big step forward in oncological research and in the customization of treatments. Compared to gliomas, for which research has discovered greater results, the correlation between the microenvironment and tumor phenotype, and consequent prognostic implications, are still incompletely understood for intracranial meningioma. Recently, studies about the immunogenetic landscape of meningiomas have been promoted, and it is now clear that understanding the multifactorial pathogenesis of meningioma and its correlation with other specific signs (i.e., PTBE) could lead to the development of new targeted therapies, and significantly affect meningioma patients’ prognosis. Abstract The role of immunotherapy is gaining ever-increasing interest in the neuro-oncological field, and this is also expanding to the management of intracranial meningioma. Meningiomas are still the most common primary adult tumor of the CNS, and even though surgery and/or radiotherapy still represent cornerstones of their treatment, recent findings strongly support the potential role of specific immune infiltrate cells, their features and genomics, for the application of personalized treatments and prognostic implications. According to the PRISMA guidelines, systematic research in the most updated platform was performed in order to provide a descriptive and complete overview about the characteristics, role and potential implications of immunology in meningioma tumors. Seventy articles were included and analyzed in the present paper. The meningioma microenvironment reveals complex immune tumor-immune cells interactions that may definitely influence tumor progression, as well as offering unexpected opportunities for treatment.
