Description
The cytosolic NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase IDH1 is frequently mutated in human cancers. Recent studies have shown that IDH1 mutant primary glioblastomas (GBM) and acute myeloid leukemias (AML) display robust association with CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP). Such observations bring into question whether IDH1 mutations directly contribute to the development of CIMP or if the hypermethylation phenotype precedes acquisition of IDH1 mutations. To reveal the effects of IDH1 mutations on DNA methylation and gene expression, we introduced the most frequently observed IDH1 mutation, R132H, into a human cancer cell line through gene targeting. We profiled changes in methylation at over 27,000 CpG dinucleotides spanning 14,475 unique gene regions and characterized genome-wide gene expression alterations resulting from IDH1R132H knockin. We observed consistent changes in both DNA methylation and gene expression when comparing two independent IDH1R132H knockin clones to their wild-type parent, and report hypermethylation of over 2,000 loci, the majority of which contained preexisting methylation in IDH1WT parental cells. These loci exhibit the same trend in primary TCGA glioblastoma tumors with mutant IDH1 as compared to those with wild-type IDH1 and have significant overlap with genes hypermethylated in glioma-CIMP+ tumors. Furthermore, we identify specific DNA methylation and gene expression alterations which correlate with IDH1 mutations in our cell-line model as well as primary glioblastomas, including hypermethylation and transcriptional silencing of RBP1. The presented data provide insight on epigenetic alterations induced by IDH1 mutations and support a contributory role for IDH1 mutants in regulation of DNA methylation and gene expression in human cancer cells.

Description
MiR-33a is involved in the maintenance of Glioma Initiating Cells (GIC) and tumor progression. MicroRNA-33a could promote GIC growth and self-renewal by regulating two pathways including cAMP/PKA pathway and Notch pathway. We used microarrays to identify the direct target genes of miR-33a in a glioblastoma cell line D456MG.

Description
Mouse neural stem cells were generated from conditional knockout mice (Cicflox/flox) or the wild trype control mice (Cic+/+). Cic is conditionally knocked out following expression of Cre-recombinase. Cre-recombinase was incorporated in vitro via adenoviral-Cre transduction.

Description
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, with glioma initiating cells (GICs) implicated to be critical for tumor progression and resistance to therapy. KDM1B is involved in regulating GICs'' responses to hypoxia, since over-expression of KDM1B delays the cell growth under hypoxia while knocking-down of KDM1B in GICs promotes their survival and tumorigenic abilities. Overall design: We used RNA-Sequencing to detail the global change of gene expression in GICs with knockdown of KDM1B, and identified de-regulated genes and pathways downstream of KDM1B. CD133+ D456MG GICs were infected with non-targeting control and shRNA of KDM1B. Then RNA was extracted and gene expression was profiled by RNA-Seq.

Description
Gliomas arising in the brainstem and thalamus are devastating tumors that are difficult to surgically resect due to their proximity to eloquent brain structures. Here, we performed a comprehesive genomic and epigenomic study, using gene expression and methylation microarrays, to research on th different genomic and epigenetic signatures between brainstem, thalamic, and supratentorial gliomas.

Description
We have developed a nonheuristic genome topography scan (GTS) algorithm to characterize the patterns of genomic alterations in human glioblastoma (GBM), identifying frequent p18INK4C and p16INK4A codeletion. Functional reconstitution of p18INK4C in GBM cells null for both p16INK4A and p18INK4C resulted in impaired cell-cycle progression and tumorigenic potential. Conversely, RNAi-mediated depletion of p18INK4C in p16INK4A-deficient primary astrocytes or established GBM cells enhanced tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, acute suppression of p16INK4A in primary astrocytes induced a concomitant increase in p18INK4C. Together, these findings uncover a feedback regulatory circuit in the astrocytic lineage and demonstrate a bona fide tumor suppressor role for p18INK4C in human GBM wherein it functions cooperatively with other INK4 family members to constrain inappropriate proliferation.
