الوصف: Medulloblastoma (MB) is one of the most prevalent malignant brain tumors in children, with tremendous cognitive and neuroendocrine disability among survivors. Group 3 (G3) MBs have poor overall survival at <50%, few recurrent mutations, higher frequency of metastasis, and no targeted therapies. Amplification of MYC and activation of TGFβ signaling are frequent in G3MB. Remarkably, some MB tumors have no reported mutations, suggesting roles for epigenetic mechanisms in driving disease. We hypothesize that the TGFβ pathway and MYC contribute to the intrinsic resistance of G3MB through deregulation of key genes and pathways. We previously established humanized models for SHHMB by introducing MYCN or PTCH1 deletions into neuroepithelial stem cells (NESC) derived from normal human induced pluripotent stem cells (hIPSCs). In this study, we transduced NESCs with TGFb effectors activated in G3MB alone and/or in combination with MYC, prioritizing combinations observed in patients. Excitingly, both MYC and TGFβ effectors drove tumor formation in vivo with the combination of TGFβ effectors with MYC leading to more aggressive tumors. We next found that NESCs expressing MYC with either TGFβR1 or TGFβ1 showed resistance to clinical TGFβR1 inhibitors, compared to cells driven by either TGFβR1 or TGFβ1 alone. To decipher mechanisms of resistance, we integrated CUT&RUN to probe for MYC genomic localization and relevant histone PTMs with RNA-seq analysis and discovered a subset of genes upregulated in MYC and TGFb-driven lines that are targets of the histone demethylase KDM2B. Loss of function mutations in KDM2B occur in G3MB patients, indicating that KDM2B deregulated genes are critical in G3MB. We postulate that epigenetic remodeling via MYC and recruitment of other MYC-interacting cofactors to KDM2B targets culminates in transcriptional changes that lead to aggressive disease. Overall, our studies provide important insight on identifying new therapeutic avenues for patients with MYC and TGFβ driven G3MB.
