| Description: |
The molecular classification of gliomas is currently based on the presence of IDH1 mutation, which is associated with better prognosis and longer survival. The hallmark of the IDH1 mutation is the production of D-2-Hydroxyglutarate with subsequent effects that are not fully understood. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent mechanism of non-apoptotic cell death, is mostly triggered through blocking system Xc- or suppressing the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX-4). In this study, we generated a mouse model of glioma harboring the IDH1(R132H) mutation in heterozygous condition, in combination with p53-deletion induced by the expression of PDGFA. We show that IDH1(R132H)-expressing mice survive longer compared to their wild-type counterparts, while histological analysis reveals characteristics of low-grade diffuse gliomas. We generated cell lines from primary tumors and analyzed their metabolic profile and response to mitochondrial stress and Ferroptosis. We treated them in vitro with RSL3, a GPX-4 inhibitor, alone or in combination with Cysteine and Methionine restriction. We show that IDH1(R132H)-expressing cells are far more sensitive to Ferroptosis in vitro. Finally, we show that convection-enhanced delivery of RSL3 in combination with dietary Cysteine and Methionine restriction in vivo, significantly prolongs survival of the IDH1(R132H)-expressing mice. Our findings suggest that Ferroptosis provides promising therapeutic potential worth exploring further and our mouse model could be used to test the efficacy of different treatments for IDH1(R132H) gliomas. |
