Popis: | Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is pivotal in embryonic development and wound healing, whereas in cancer it inflicts malignancy and drug resistance. The recognition of an EMT-like process in glioma is relatively new and its clinical and therapeutic significance has, as yet, not been fully elucidated. Here, we aimed to delineate the clinical significance of the EMT-like process in glioma and its therapeutic relevance to rabeprazole. We investigated the expression profiles of EMT-associated proteins in primary glioma biopsies through Western blotting and immunohistochemistry, and correlated them with various clinicopathological features and data listed in the cancer genome atlas (TCGA). In addition, the anticancer efficacy of rabeprazole and its therapeutic relevance to EMT along with temozolomide chemo-sensitization were assessed using multiple cell-based assays, Western blotting and confocal imaging. For in vivo assessment, we used a stereotaxic C6-rat glioma model. Expression analysis of EMT-associated proteins in glioma biopsies, in conjunction with clinicopathological and TCGA dataset analyses, revealed non-canonical expression of E/N-cadherin and upregulation of GFAP, vimentin and β-catenin. The increased expression of EMT-associated proteins may attribute to glioma malignancy and a poor patient prognosis. Subsequent in vitro studies revealed that rabeprazole treatment attenuated glioma cell growth and migration, and induced apoptosis. Rabeprazole suppressed EMT by impeding AKT/GSK3β phosphorylation and/or NF-κB signaling and sensitized temozolomide resistance. Additional in vivo studies showed restricted tumor growth and inhibited expression of EMT-associated proteins after rabeprazole treatment. Our data revealed (i) a clinical association of the EMT-like process with glioma malignancy and a poor survival and (ii) an anticancer and temozolomide sensitizing effect of rabeprazole by repressing EMT. |
