Abstract
GPR133 (ADGRD1) is an adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor that signals through Gαs/cyclic AMP (cAMP) and is required for the growth of glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive brain malignancy. The regulation of GPR133 signaling is incompletely understood. Here, we use proximity biotinylation proteomics to identify ESYT1, a Ca2+-dependent mediator of endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane bridge formation, as an intracellular interactor of GPR133. ESYT1 knockdown or knockout increases GPR133 signaling, while its overexpression has the opposite effect, without altering GPR133 levels in the plasma membrane. The GPR133-ESYT1 interaction requires the Ca2+-sensing C2C domain of ESYT1. Thapsigargin-mediated increases in cytosolic Ca2+ relieve signaling-suppressive effects of ESYT1 by promoting ESYT1-GPR133 dissociation. ESYT1 knockdown or knockout in GBM slows tumor growth, suggesting tumorigenic functions of ESYT1. Our findings demonstrate a mechanism for the modulation of GPR133 signaling by increased cytosolic Ca2+, which reduces the signaling-suppressive interaction between GPR133 and ESYT1 to raise cAMP levels.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain malignancy. Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) have attracted interest for their potential as treatment targets. Here, we show that CD97 (ADGRE5) is the most promising aGPCR target in GBM, by virtue of its de novo expression compared to healthy brain tissue. CD97 knockdown or knockout significantly reduces the tumor initiation capacity of patient-derived GBM cultures (PDGCs) in vitro and in vivo. We find that CD97 promotes glycolytic metabolism via the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, which depends on phosphorylation of its C terminus and recruitment of β-arrestin. We also demonstrate that THY1/CD90 is a likely CD97 ligand in GBM. Lastly, we show that an anti-CD97 antibody-drug conjugate selectively kills tumor cells in vitro. Our studies identify CD97 as a regulator of tumor metabolism, elucidate mechanisms of receptor activation and signaling, and provide strong scientific rationale for developing biologics to target it therapeutically in GBM.

Abstract
The adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor GPR133 (ADGRD1) supports growth of the brain malignancy glioblastoma. How the extracellular interactome of GPR133 in glioblastoma modulates signaling remains unknown. Here, we use affinity proteomics to identify the transmembrane protein PTK7 as an extracellular binding partner of GPR133 in glioblastoma. PTK7 binds the autoproteolytically generated N-terminal fragment of GPR133 and its expression in trans increases GPR133 signaling. This effect requires the intramolecular cleavage of GPR133 and PTK7's anchoring in the plasma membrane. PTK7's allosteric action on GPR133 signaling is additive with but topographically distinct from orthosteric activation by soluble peptide mimicking the endogenous tethered Stachel agonist. GPR133 and PTK7 are expressed in adjacent cells in glioblastoma, where their knockdown phenocopies each other. We propose that this ligand-receptor interaction is relevant to the pathogenesis of glioblastoma and possibly other physiological processes in healthy tissues.

Abstract
Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain malignancy. Despite multimodal therapy, disease recurrence is inevitable. To identify novel vulnerabilities of GBM, we performed an arrayed CRISPR/Cas9 screen against select adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs), many of which we found to be de novo expressed in GBM. Knockout of CD97, previously implicated in GBM cell migration, produced the most striking proliferative disadvantage in patient-derived GBM cultures (PDGC) among aGPCRs tested. We found high CD97 surface expression in all our PDGCs, while levels remained nearly undetectable in non-neoplastic brain cells, confirming that CD97 is de novo expressed in GBM. Upon shRNA-mediated knockdown of CD97 in PDGCs from all three TCGA transcriptional subtypes, we observed reduced proliferation, as measured by cell cycle analysis. Notably, CD97 knockdown also significantly reduced tumorsphere formation capacity as measured by limiting dilution assays; an effect that was partially rescued upon CD97 overexpression. To elucidate mechanisms of action of CD97, we performed RNA-sequencing and GO pathway enrichment analysis from PDGCs following CD97 knockdown. The top downregulated pathways involved glycolytic metabolism, specifically involving many genes relevant for glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) and fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) processing. Indeed, when we measured metabolite levels under both steady-state and flux conditions using mass spectrometry, we observed an accumulation of G6P and a depletion of most downstream glycolytic and Krebs cycle metabolites upon CD97 knockdown. Furthermore, Seahorse metabolic assays revealed deficits in both glycolytic metabolism and oxygen consumption. We aim to interrogate the activity of specific glycolytic enzymes involved in processing G6P and F6P, pinpointing how these are influenced by CD97 signaling pathways (MAPK or Akt). Overall; our studies suggest a novel role of CD97 in regulating GBM metabolism (Warburg effect), and provide a strong scientific rationale for developing biologics to target CD97 which appears to be universally and de novo expressed in GBM.

Abstract
Abstract
We recently demonstrated that GPR133 (ADGRD1), a member of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR) family, is necessary for growth of glioblastoma (GBM) and is de novo expressed in GBM relative to normal brain tissue. We therefore postulate that GPR133 represents a novel target in GBM, which merits development of therapeutics. Like most aGPCRs, GPR133 is characterized by an intracellular C-terminus, 7 plasma membrane-spanning α-helices and a large extracellular N-terminus. The N-terminus possesses a conserved GPCR autoproteolysis-inducing (GAIN) domain that catalyzes cleavage at a GPCR proteolysis site (GPS), resulting in a C-terminal fragment (CTF) and an N-terminal fragment (NTF). We showed that dissociation of the cleaved NTF and CTF at the plasma membrane increases canonical signaling of GPR133, which is mediated by coupling to Gs and increase in cytosolic cAMP. Toward characterizing the effect of biologics on GPR133 function, we overexpressed wild-type or mutant forms of GPR133 in HEK293T cells and patient-derived GBM cells lines. Treatment of these cells with antibodies specifically targeting the NTF of GPR133 increased receptor activation in a dose-dependent manner. No effects were elicited with an antibody against the receptor’s intracellular C-terminus. Interestingly, cells overexpressing a cleavage-deficient mutant GPR133 (H543R) did not respond to antibody stimulation, suggesting that the effect is cleavage-dependent. Following antibody treatment, co-purification of the GPR133 NTF and the N-terminal antibody from the cell culture supernatant indicated the formation of antibody-NTF complexes. Analysis of these complexes suggested that antibody binding stimulated the dissociation of the NTF from the CTF. However, the increased flexibility of the GAIN domain and NTF after cleavage, independently of dissociation, may also endow the receptor with responsiveness to the effects of the antibodies. These data constitute a proof-of-concept paradigm of modulation of GPR133 function with antibodies. This work provides rationale for pursuing development of biologics targeting GPR133 in GBM.

Abstract
Abstract
Gain of function mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase I (IDH1) result in the formation of the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) in adult lower grade gliomas. To gain insight into mechanisms of gliomagenesis, our lab previously created a tractable human cellular model of low grade astrocytoma (LGA) using the putative cell-of-origin, human neural stem cells (NSCs), engineered to express mutant IDH1 and knockdown constructs against TP53 and ATRX, the two other genetic changes that accompany the IDH mutation in these tumors. We found that transcription factor (sex determining region Y)-box 2 SOX2, which is essential to NSC multipotency, the ability to differentiate to neuroglial lineages, behaves as a tumor suppressor during glioma initiation. In this context, we showed SOX2 is transcriptionally downregulated to impair NSC multipotency, thus locking NSCs in an undifferentiated state to initiate gliomagenesis. This downregulation occurs secondary to dynamic reorganization of the topologically associating domain (TAD) of SOX2 and the loss of contact with several genomic loci with histone modifications and chromatin accessibility suggestive of being enhancers. Here we show that those putative enhancers acquire enhancer-like features simultaneous to tje TAD organizing in a way that facilitates interaction with the SOX2 promoter during the process of pluripotent stem cell differentiation into neuroectodermal lineages, suggesting a developmental role. Preliminary data suggests that disruption of the SOX2 TAD by preventing binding of the genome organizer CTCF downregulates SOX2 expression in NSCs. Targeted silencing of several regions of a putative enhancer with CRISPRi also downregulates SOX2. In human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), interfering with these CTCF binding sites biases their differentiation away from the neuroectoderm. We are currently performing CRISPRi screen against all putative enhancer loci, teratoma formation assays on hESCs lacking relevant CTCF binding, and CRISPR mediated deletion of putative enhancers. Understanding this developmental process may reveal underlying vulnerabilities in LGA.

Abstract
Histone H3K27M is a driving mutation in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), a deadly pediatric brain tumor. H3K27M reshapes the epigenome through a global inhibition of PRC2 catalytic activity and displacement of H3K27me2/3, promoting oncogenesis of DIPG. As a consequence, a histone modification H3K36me2, antagonistic to H3K27me2/3, is aberrantly elevated. Here, we investigate the role of H3K36me2 in H3K27M-DIPG by tackling its upstream catalyzing enzymes (writers) and downstream binding factors (readers). We determine that NSD1 and NSD2 are the key writers for H3K36me2. Loss of NSD1/2 in H3K27M-DIPG impedes cellular proliferation and tumorigenesis by disrupting tumor-promoting transcriptional programs. Further, we demonstrate that LEDGF and HDGF2 are the main readers mediating the protumorigenic effects downstream of NSD1/2-H3K36me2. Treatment with a chemically modified peptide mimicking endogenous H3K36me2 dislodges LEDGF/HDGF2 from chromatin and specifically inhibits the proliferation of H3K27M-DIPG. Our results indicate a functional pathway of NSD1/2-H3K36me2-LEDGF/HDGF2 as an acquired dependency in H3K27M-DIPG.

Abstract
Background Glioma is a family of primary brain malignancies with limited treatment options and in need of novel therapies. We previously demonstrated that the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor GPR133 (ADGRD1) is necessary for tumor growth in adult glioblastoma, the most advanced malignancy within the glioma family. However, the expression pattern of GPR133 in other types of adult glioma is unknown. Methods We used immunohistochemistry in tumor specimens and non-neoplastic cadaveric brain tissue to profile GPR133 expression in adult gliomas. Results We show that GPR133 expression increases as a function of WHO grade and peaks in glioblastoma, where all tumors ubiquitously express it. Importantly, GPR133 is expressed within the tumor bulk, as well as in the brain-infiltrating tumor margin. Furthermore, GPR133 is expressed in both isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild-type and mutant gliomas, albeit at higher levels in IDH wild-type tumors. Conclusion The fact that GPR133 is absent from non-neoplastic brain tissue but de novo expressed in glioma suggests that it may be exploited therapeutically.

Abstract
Abstract
Neomorphic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase I (IDH1) result in the formation of the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) in a significant subset of gliomas and other tumors including acute myeloid leukemias. Preclinical evidence suggests that gliomas harboring IDH1 mutations undergo widespread, long-lasting modifications to the epigenome that persist following inhibition of 2HG production. However, the exact mechanism underlying gliomagenesis remains unclear. To address difficulties in growing these tumors in culture, our group generated a model of low-grade astrocytoma in human neural stem cells (NSCs). This model, referred to as 3-Hit NSCs, suggested a block in differentiation potential underlies gliomagenesis at the cellular level. This block is rescued by restoration of expression of the transcription factor (sex determining region Y)-box 2 (SOX2), which is transcriptionally downregulated during IDH mutant gliomagenesis. We believe that these changes occur secondary to profound alterations in 3-dimensional chromatin organization around the SOX2 genomic locus. Our preliminary data suggest SOX2 expression in control NSCs depends on 3-dimensional association of its promoter to an uncharacterized, distal enhancer located 600 kb telomeric to the SOX2 gene. We believe this association is disrupted in 3-Hit NSCs due to eviction of chromatin organizer CTCF from its motifs in the SOX2 topologically associating domain (TAD). To test this hypothesis, we used CRISPR-Cas9 technology to excise CTCF motifs immediately upstream of the SOX2 promoter and in the region of the putative enhancer in control NSCs. Excision of such motifs significantly reduced SOX2 mRNA levels and impaired growth of control NSCs. We are currently working on characterizing this novel SOX2-enhancer interaction in native stem cells, as well as tumors that depend on SOX2 expression. This works aims to elucidate the core epigenetic mechanisms underlying IDH mutant gliomagenesis. Our findings will be used to improve therapy in IDH-mutant glioma.

Abstract
Abstract
We previously found GPR133 (ADGRD1), an orphan adhesion GPCR, is de novo expressed in glioblastoma (GBM) and enriched in patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). Knockdown of GPR133 reduces GBM cell proliferation and tumorsphere formation, and abolishes orthotopic tumor initiation in vivo in mice. Analysis of TCGA data indicates that increased GPR133 transcription inversely correlates with patient survival in GBM. While these findings underscore the importance of GPR133 in GBM and suggest an essential role in tumor growth, its ligand and mechanism of activation remain unknown. Toward identifying GPR133 ligands, we used GPR133’s N-terminal ectodomain as bait and performed affinity co-immunoprecipitation (CoIP) followed by mass spectrometry as an unbiased screening approach. We identified 490 extracellular proteins with enriched binding to GPR133 compared to control. Reverse CoIP using the 15 most abundant candidate ligands as bait to purify the receptor confirmed this interaction reproducibly in 4 candidates. Despite this binding, overexpression of these candidate ligands, or addition of purified recombinant protein, is not sufficient to increase receptor signaling as assessed by cAMP levels in HEK293 cells. This suggests that ligand binding to the GPR133 ectodomain may not be sufficient by itself to induce receptor activation. We hypothesize receptor activation requires mechanical forces in addition to ligand binding. Consistent with this hypothesis, the GPR133 binding proteins we have identified may be anchored to the extracellular matrix, mediating such mechanical force. To test whether mechanical shearing of the extracellular domain is sufficient for receptor activation, we used Dynabeads coupled to antibody against GPR133’s N-terminal ectodomain, and indeed observed receptor activation leading to elevated cAMP levels. No activation was observed when Dynabeads devoid of antibody were used. This mode of GPR133 activation might indicate a role in sensing mechanical/viscoelastic properties of GBM extracellular matrix, which may be relevant to tumor cell migration and invasion.

Abstract
The identification of heterozygous neomorphic isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations across multiple cancer types including both solid and hematologic malignancies has revolutionized our understanding of oncogenesis in these malignancies and the potential for targeted therapeutics using small molecule inhibitors. The neomorphic mutation in IDH generates an oncometabolite product, 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG), which has been linked to the disruption of metabolic and epigenetic mechanisms responsible for cellular differentiation and is likely an early and critical contributor to oncogenesis. In the past 2 years, two mutant IDH (mutIDH) inhibitors, Enasidenib (AG-221), and Ivosidenib (AG-120), have been FDA-approved for IDH-mutant relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) based on phase 1 safety and efficacy data and continue to be studied in trials in hematologic malignancies, as well as in glioma, cholangiocarcinoma, and chondrosarcoma. In this review, we will summarize the molecular pathways and oncogenic consequences associated with mutIDH with a particular emphasis on glioma and AML, and systematically review the development and preclinical testing of mutIDH inhibitors. Existing clinical data in both hematologic and solid tumors will likewise be reviewed followed by a discussion on the potential limitations of mutIDH inhibitor monotherapy and potential routes for treatment optimization using combination therapy.

Abstract
Characterizing complex viral transcriptomes by conventional RNA sequencing approaches is complicated by high gene density, overlapping reading frames, and complex splicing patterns. Direct RNA sequencing (direct RNA-seq) using nanopore arrays offers an exciting alternative whereby individual polyadenylated RNAs are sequenced directly, without the recoding and amplification biases inherent to other sequencing methodologies. Here we use direct RNA-seq to profile the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) transcriptome during productive infection of primary cells. We show how direct RNA-seq data can be used to define transcription initiation and RNA cleavage sites associated with all polyadenylated viral RNAs and demonstrate that low level read-through transcription produces a novel class of chimeric HSV-1 transcripts, including a functional mRNA encoding a fusion of the viral E3 ubiquitin ligase ICP0 and viral membrane glycoprotein L. Thus, direct RNA-seq offers a powerful method to characterize the changing transcriptional landscape of viruses with complex genomes.

Abstract
Advances in genome sequencing have elucidated the genetics of low-grade glioma. Available evidence indicates a neomorphic mutation in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) initiates gliomagenesis. Mutant IDH produces the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate, which inhibits enzymes that demethylate genomic DNA and histones. Recent findings by the authors and others suggest the ensuing hypermethylation alters chromatin conformation and the transcription factor landscape in brain progenitor cells, leading to a block in differentiation and tumor initiation. Work in preclinical models has identified selective metabolic and molecular vulnerabilities of low-grade glioma. These new concepts will trigger a wave of innovative clinical trials in the near future.

Abstract
Gliomas are malignant primary tumors of the central nervous system. Their cell-of-origin is thought to be a neural progenitor or stem cell that acquires mutations leading to oncogenic transformation. Thanks to advances in human stem cell biology, it has become possible to derive human cell types that represent putative cells-of-origin in vitro and model the gliomagenesis process by systematically introducing genetic alterations in these human cells. Here, we present methods to derive human neural stem cells (NSCs) from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Because these NSCs are genetically unmodified at baseline, they can be used as a cellular platform to study the effects of individual oncogenic hits in a well-controlled manner in the backdrop of a human genetic background. We also present some key applications of these NSCs, which include their transduction with lentiviral vectors, their neuroglial differentiation and xenografting methods into immunocompromised mice to assess in vivo behavior.

Abstract
Low-grade astrocytomas (LGAs) carry neomorphic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) concurrently with P53 and ATRX loss. To model LGA formation, we introduced R132H IDH1, P53 shRNA, and ATRX shRNA into human neural stem cells (NSCs). These oncogenic hits blocked NSC differentiation, increased invasiveness in vivo, and led to a DNA methylation and transcriptional profile resembling IDH1 mutant human LGAs. The differentiation block was caused by transcriptional silencing of the transcription factor SOX2 secondary to disassociation of its promoter from a putative enhancer. This occurred because of reduced binding of the chromatin organizer CTCF to its DNA motifs and disrupted chromatin looping. Our human model of IDH mutant LGA formation implicates impaired NSC differentiation because of repression of SOX2 as an early driver of gliomagenesis.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning confers organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemic stress. A substantial body of evidence underscores the importance of mitochondria adaptation as a critical component of cell protection from ischemia. To identify changes in mitochondria protein expression in response to ischemic preconditioning, we isolated mitochondria from ischemic preconditioned kidneys and sham-treated kidneys as a basis for comparison. The proteomic screen identified highly upregulated proteins, including NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2), and we confirmed the ability of this protein to confer cellular protection from injury in murine S3 proximal tubule cells subjected to hypoxia. To further evaluate the role of IDH2 in cell protection, we performed detailed analysis of the effects of Idh2 gene delivery on kidney susceptibility to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Gene delivery of IDH2 before injury attenuated the injury-induced rise in serum creatinine (P<0.05) observed in controls and increased the mitochondria membrane potential (P<0.05), maximal respiratory capacity (P<0.05), and intracellular ATP levels (P<0.05) above those in controls. This communication shows that gene delivery of Idh2 can confer organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemia-reperfusion injury and mimics ischemic preconditioning.
