Summary: Recent studies suggest that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) contribute to medulloblastoma (MB) formation and progression. We have identified an lncRNA, lnc-HLX-2-7, as a potential therapeutic target in group 3 (G3) MBs. lnc-HLX-2-7 RNA specifically accumulates in the promoter region of HLX, a sense-overlapping gene of lnc-HLX-2-7, which activates HLX expression by recruiting multiple factors, including enhancer elements. RNA sequencing and chromatin immunoprecipitation reveal that HLX binds to and activates the promoters of several oncogenes, including TBX2, LIN9, HOXM1, and MYC. Intravenous treatment with cerium-oxide-nanoparticle-coated antisense oligonucleotides targeting lnc-HLX-2-7 (CNP-lnc-HLX-2-7) inhibits tumor growth by 40%–50% in an intracranial MB xenograft mouse model. Combining CNP-lnc-HLX-2-7 with standard-of-care cisplatin further inhibits tumor growth and significantly prolongs mouse survival compared with CNP-lnc-HLX-2-7 monotherapy. Thus, the lnc-HLX-2-7-HLX-MYC axis is important for regulating G3 MB progression, providing a strong rationale for using lnc-HLX-2-7 as a therapeutic target for G3 MBs. |
