- W2318714456 abstract "Proceedings: AACR 103rd Annual Meeting 2012‐‐ Mar 31‐Apr 4, 2012; Chicago, ILIntroduction: Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) are a subpopulation of tumor cells that promote tumor invasion and angiogenesis, therapeutic resistance and tumor recurrence. Here, we study the function of hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (HMMR) in human GSCs. HMMR is hyper-expressed in human glioblastoma samples relative to lower-grade glioma and non-neoplastic specimens. Hyper-expression of HMMR also correlates with poor survival in glioma patients. HMMR is a multifunctional oncogenic protein that plays essential roles in tumorgenesis. Extracellular HMMR forms a complex with CD44 that upon binding to hyaluronan activates intracellular signaling pathways that regulate tumor cell survival, proliferation and invasion. Intracellular HMMR associates with microtubules, interacts with the mitotic spindle and contributes to tumor progression by promoting genomic instability. HMMR and CD44 are two ubiquitous receptors for hyaluronan, which is a prominent component of the microenvironment in most malignant tumors. CD44 has been identified as a cancer stem cell marker and CD44 directly regulates cancer stem cells in a variety of cancers including glioblastoma. Critical evidence regarding the function of HMMR in actual glioblastoma tumors and in the context of tumor-initiating GSCs is still lacking. Results: We found that HMMR is ubiquitously expressed in a panel of human glioblastoma-derived neurosphere cultures that are enriched for GSCs. Targeting HMMR by lentivirus-mediated shRNA delivery potently disrupted in vitro self-renewal of GSCs and inhibited the expression of key GSC markers, such as CD133, SOX2 and Olig2. HMMR knockdown also blocked the in vivo tumorigenic potential of GSCs in mouse orthotopic xenograft model. Notably, disruption of HMMR in GSCs attenuated the activity of Notch signaling, which supports the cancer stem cell hierarchy in glioblastoma and various other cancer types. Significance: This research identifies HMMR as a novel therapeutic target in the treatment of glioblastoma by depleting the tumor-initiating GSCs. It also introduces a novel hypothesis regarding the mechanistic crosstalk between HMMR-mediated signaling and Notch signaling pathway. Understanding this crosstalk between HMMR and Notch signaling will have a significant impact on current efforts to target Notch driven mechanisms for GBM therapy. Overall, these studies will lay an essential foundation for the development of HMMR-targeting strategies, such as HMMR inhibitors or monoclonal antibodies, as new therapeutic approaches targeting glioblastoma.Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
