As glioblastomas are mostly localized infiltrative lesions, gene therapy based on the retroviral replicating vector (RRV) system is considered an attractive strategy. Combinations of multiple suicide genes can circumvent the limitations associated with each gene, achieving direct and synergistic cytotoxic effects, along with bystander cell killing. In this study, we constructed a semi-and pseudotyped-RRV (sp-RRV) system harboring two suicide genes—herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase (TK) and yeast cytosine deaminase (CD)—to verify the dissemination and antitumor efficacy of our sp-RRV system (spRRVe-sEF1α-TK/sRRVgp-sEF1α-CD) in seven patient-derived glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs). Flow cytometry and high-content analysis revealed a wide range of transduction efficiency and good correlation between the delivery of therapeutic genes and susceptibility to the prodrugs ganciclovir and 5-fluorocytosine in patient-derived GSCs in vitro. Intra-tumoral delivery of spRRVe-sEF1α-TK/sRRVgp-sEF1α-CD, combined with prodrug treatment, synergistically inhibited cell proliferation and angiogenesis while increasing apoptosis and the depletion of tumor-associated macrophages in orthotopic glioblastoma xenografts. Genomic profiling of patient-derived GSCs revealed that the key genes preventing sp-RRV infection and transmission were associated with cell adhesion, migration, development, differentiation, and proliferation. This is the first report demonstrating that a novel sp-RRV-mediated TK/CD double suicide gene transfer system has high oncolytic power against extremely heterogeneous and treatment-refractory glioblastomas.

Abstract Glioblastoma is inevitably a recurrent cancer. Despite of recent advancement, temozolomide remain the prescribed lifeline drug, after the surgery. Inadvertently, MGMT (O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase) expression mechanistically linked with Temozolomide (alkylating drug) glioma resistant development. To understand the resistant against Temozolomide sought to deciphered, by making invitro drug resistant glioma cell lines. RNA seq analysis over a illumina platform; drug resistant glioma cell lines showed various critical key factor such as splice factor hnRNPA1 and deubiquitinating enzymes were showed to highly upregulated in resistant cell lines. Commonly, from our previous study, the stability of hnRNPA1 in presence of USP5 were showed to promote cell survival, whereas knocking down of USP5 significantly lower down the telomerase activity and NAD/NADH ratio enlarge. Furthermore, expression of MGMT was showed significantly downregulated in hnRNPA1 knock down T98G glioma cells, as well as in U87 Temozolomide resistant cells. Extrinsic apoptosis pathway was showed more prevalent in hnRNPA1 knock down glioma cells in presence of Trail ligand. Interestingly, we found one more spliced variants of hnRNPA1 exclusively expressing in drug resistant cells is new finding. Selectively knocking down of hnRNPA1 splice variant promotes apoptosis. RNA seq analysis followed the comparison between two hnRNPA1 spliced variant knock down, drug resistant glioma cell lines showed differentially expressed transcript support our finding to be distinctly regulated by hnRNPA1 spliced variants. Spliced variant of hnRNPA1 showed a potential therapeutic candidate signature.

Chemotherapy combined with surgery is an important clinical treatment for glioma, but endogenous or acquired temozolomide (TMZ) resistance can lead to poor prognosis. microRNA (miR)-9-5p acts in biological function of glioma, but the drug resistance of miR-9-5p in glioma is under exploration. The study intended to test the molecular mechanism of miR-9-5p in glioma cells. MTT assay was applied to investigate the chemosensitivity enhancement of miR-9-5p on TMZ in glioma cells U87-TMZ and U251-TMZ, and in vivo experiments confirmed its role on tumor growth in nude mice. The results of double luciferase reporter gene assay, qRT-PCR and WB indicated that miR-9-5p directly targeted ABCC1 (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 1) to reduce its expressions. MTT and flow cytometry indicated that elevation of miR-9-5p or down-regulation of ABCC1 could inhibit proliferation-induced apoptosis of drug-resistant cells, and the decrease of miR-9-5p could reverse the reduction of ABCC1 on proliferation-induced apoptosis of drug-resistant cells. In vivo experiments showed that miR-9-5p could promote the anti-tumor role of TMZ. To sum up, the increase of miR-9-5p directly targets ABCC1 and may make glioma cells sensitive to TMZ.
