Endothelial cells create a stem cell niche in glioblastoma by providing NOTCH ligands that nurture self-renewal of cancer stem-like cells.
Cancer research 2011 SEP
Abstract
One important function of endothelial cells in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is to create a niche that helps promote self-renewal of cancer stem-like cells (CSLC). However,the underlying molecular mechanism for this endothelial function is not known. Since activation of NOTCH signaling has been found to be required for propagation of GBM CSLCs,we hypothesized that the GBM endothelium may provide the source of NOTCH ligands. Here,we report a corroboration of this concept with a demonstration that NOTCH ligands are expressed in endothelial cells adjacent to NESTIN and NOTCH receptor-positive cancer cells in primary GBMs. Coculturing human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMEC) or NOTCH ligand with GBM neurospheres promoted GBM cell growth and increased CSLC self-renewal. Notably,RNAi-mediated knockdown of NOTCH ligands in hBMECs abrogated their ability to induce CSLC self-renewal and GBM tumor growth,both in vitro and in vivo. Thus,our findings establish that NOTCH activation in GBM CSLCs is driven by juxtacrine signaling between tumor cells and their surrounding endothelial cells in the tumor microenvironment,suggesting that targeting both CSLCs and their niche may provide a novel strategy to deplete CSLCs and improve GBM treatment.
Isolation and expansion of human glioblastoma multiforme tumor cells using the neurosphere assay.
Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE 2011 JAN
Abstract
Stem-like cells have been isolated in tumors such as breast,lung,colon,prostate and brain. A critical issue in all these tumors,especially in glioblastoma mutliforme (GBM),is to identify and isolate tumor initiating cell population(s) to investigate their role in tumor formation,progression,and recurrence. Understanding tumor initiating cell populations will provide clues to finding effective therapeutic approaches for these tumors. The neurosphere assay (NSA) due to its simplicity and reproducibility has been used as the method of choice for isolation and propagation of many of this tumor cells. This protocol demonstrates the neurosphere culture method to isolate and expand stem-like cells in surgically resected human GBM tumor tissue. The procedures include an initial chemical digestion and mechanical dissociation of tumor tissue,and subsequently plating the resulting single cell suspension in NSA culture. After 7-10 days,primary neurospheres of 150-200 μm in diameter can be observed and are ready for further passaging and expansion.
A distinct subpopulation within CD133 positive brain tumor cells shares characteristics with endothelial progenitor cells
Cancer Letters 2012 NOV
Abstract
The cell surface marker CD133 has been proposed as a brain tumor stem cell marker. However,there have been substantial controversies regarding the necessity and role of CD133 in tumorigenesis. This study aimed to characterize CD133(+) cells in brain tumors. Human brain tumor specimens and whole blood were collected from the same patients (N=12). We carried out dual FACS staining for CD133/CD34 and functional tumorigenesis and angiogenesis analyses of CD133(+) cells from different origins. We also investigated the in vivo tumorigenic potential and histological characteristics of four distinct groups on the basis of expression of CD133/CD34 markers (CD133(+),CD133(+)/CD34(+),CD133(+)/CD34(-),and CD133(-)). CD133(+) brain tumor cells coexpressed significantly higher positivity for CD34 (70.7±5.2% in CD133(+) vs. 12.3±4.2% in CD133(-) cells,P<0.001). CD133(+) brain tumor cells formed neurosphere-like spheroids and differentiated into multiple nervous system lineages unlike CD133(+) blood cells. They showed biological characteristics of endothelial cells,including vWF expression,LDL uptake and tube formation in vitro,unlike CD133(-) brain tumors cells. Pathologic analysis of brains implanted with CD133(+) cells showed large,markedly hypervascular tumors with well-demarcated boundary. CD133(+)/CD34(-) cells produced smaller but highly infiltrative tumors. Notably,pure angiogenic cell fractions (CD133(+)/CD34(+)) and CD133(-) tumor cells did not generate tumors in vivo. Our data suggest the presence of a distinct subpopulation of CD133(+) cells isolated from human brain tumors,with characteristics of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs).
