Preferential expression of functional IL-17R in glioma stem cells: potential role in self-renewal

Abstract: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumor and one of the most lethal solid tumors. Mechanistic studies into identification of novel biomarkers are needed to develop new therapeutic strategies for this deadly disease. The objective for this study was to explore the potential direct impact of IL-17−IL-17R interaction in gliomas. Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry analysis of 12 tumor samples obtained from patients with high grade gliomas revealed that a considerable population (2–19%) of cells in all … Show more

“…Several cytokines regulate the NF-κB pathway, and NF-κB also controls the expression of various cytokines, particularly IL-6 and IL-8, which are strongly associated with tumor progression and CSC survival [51,52]. Extracellular IL-6 induces malignant features in stem/progenitor cells from ductal breast carcinoma [33].…”

“…In human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), IL-17E binding to IL-17RB motivates NFκB and JAK/STAT3 pathways to facilitate propagation and self-renewal ability of CSCs, and these beneficial effects could be prevented by specific inhibitors of JAK and NFκB signals (64). Similarly, by NFκB and STAT3 pathways, IL-17-IL-17R interaction in glioma stem cells (GSCs) induces an autocrine and/or paracrine cytokine feedback loop, that may provide an important signaling pathway for the stemness of GSCs (65). In addition to that, the upregulation of IL-17 in gastric cancer results in the transformation of quiescent gastric CSCs into invasive gastric CSCs, from invasion, migration to tumor formation ability (66).…”

“…176 Additionally, atorvastatin inhibits IL17R expression on glioma cell lines in vitro, 177 which is thought to be a keystone proglioma stem-cell effector. 178 TGFβ (specifically TGFβ 1 ) is also produced by GAMs/TAMs, and this source of cytokines has been shown to induce MMP9 expression and invasiveness of glioma stem cells in their local niche. 179 Finally, investigators are cautioned to interpret semantics carefully when reading such reports as Bayat et al's description of IL17RA inhibition as "anti-inflammatory": 177 proinflammatory is likely the desired effect in this specific setting, as it is immunosuppression and escape from immunosurveillance effected by GAMs/TAMs that supports progression of malignant cancers, including high-grade gliomas.…”
