Abstract
OBJECTIVE:
This study investigated epigenetic modifications in human central nervous system atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors (AT/RTs), in response to inhibition of insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGF-1R).
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Tumor tissue was obtained from two pediatric patients, tissue was dissociated, and primary cultures were established. Cultured cells were treated with picropodophyllin (PPP; 0, 1, and 2 μM for 48 h), a selective IGF-1R inhibitor. Histone acetylation and methylation patterns (H3K9ac, H3K18ac, H3K4me3, H3K27me3) and levels of histone deacetylases (HDACs; HDAC1, HDAC3, and SirT1) and histone acetyl transferases (GCN5 and p300) were examined. H3K9ac and H3K18ac decreased in response to treatment with PPP. HDAC levels showed a biphasic response, increasing with 1 μM PPP, but then decreasing with 2 μM PPP.
CONCLUSION:
Inhibition of IGF-1R modified epigenetic status in AT/RT. Determining the mechanisms behind these modifications will guide the development of novel therapeutic targets for this malignant embryonal cancer.
