Abstract Background Accumulating evidence shows that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulator molecules involved in diverse biological processes. Acquired drug resistance is a major challenge the clinical treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), and lncRNAs have been shown to play role chemotherapy resistance. However, underlying mechanisms by which lncRNA mediates TMZ GBM remain poorly characterized. Methods Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) fluorescence situ...

Rationale: Glioma stem-like cells (GSCs) contribute to temozolomide (TMZ) resistance in gliomas, although the mechanisms have not been delineated. Methods:In vitro functional experiments (colony formation assay, flow cytometric analysis, TUNEL assay) were used assess ability of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from hypoxic GSCs promote TMZ glioblastoma (GBM) cells. RNA sequencing and quantitative Reverse Transcription-PCR employed identify miRNA EVs. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays...

Abstract Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in glioma initiation and progression. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) essential for tumor initiation, maintenance, therapeutic resistance. However, the biological functions underlying mechanisms of lncRNAs GSCs remain poorly understood. Here, we identified that LINC00839 was overexpressed GSCs. A high level associated with GBM progression radiation METTL3-mediated m6A modification on enhanced its expression a YTHDF2-dependent manner....

Radiotherapy is a major component of standard-of-care treatment for gliomas, the most prevalent type brain tumor. However, resistance to radiotherapy remains concern. Identification mechanisms governing radioresistance in gliomas could reveal improved therapeutic strategies treating patients. Here, we report that mitochondrial metabolic pathways are suppressed radioresistant through integrated analyses transcriptomic data from glioma specimens and cell lines. Decreased expression peroxisome...

Temozolomide (TMZ) is a standard treatment for glioblastoma (GBM) patients. However, TMZ has moderate therapeutic effects due to chemoresistance of GBM cells through less clarified mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate that TMZ-derived 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AICA) converted AICA ribosyl-5-phosphate (AICAR) in cells. This conversion catalyzed by hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase 1 (HPRT1), which highly expressed human GBMs. As the bona fide activator AMP-activated protein kinase...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant type of glioma. Integrated classification based on mRNA expression microarrays and whole–genome methylation subdivides GBM into five subtypes: Classical, Mesenchymal, Neural, Proneural-CpG island methylator phenotype (G-CIMP) Proneural-non G-CIMP. Biomarkers that can be used to predict prognosis in each subtype have not been systematically investigated. In present study, we Cox regression risk-score analysis construct respective prognostic...

Glioblastoma, the most lethal primary brain tumor, harbors glioma stem cells (GSCs) that not only initiate and maintain malignant phenotypes but also enhance therapeutic resistance. Although frequently mutated in glioblastomas, function regulation of PTEN PTEN-intact GSCs are unknown. Here, we found directly interacted with MMS19 competitively disrupted MMS19-based cytosolic iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster assembly (CIA) machinery differentiated cells. was specifically succinated at cysteine (C)...

Fenofibrate, a fibric acid derivative, is known to possess lipid-lowering effects. Although fenofibrate-induced peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) transcriptional activity has been reported exhibit anticancer effects, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated behind antiproliferative effects of fenofibrate in U87MG cells (human glioma cell line) using WST-8 Cell Proliferation Assay Kit. Furthermore, examined genome-wide gene...
