Project Title:Lipidome Signatures of Metastasis in a Transgenic Mouse Model of Sonic Hedgehog Medulloblastoma.
Project Type:Untargeted metabolomics
Project Summary:Medulloblastoma (MB), the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor, has high propensity to metastasize. Currently, the standard treatment for MB patients includes radiation therapy administered to the entire brain and spine for the purpose of treating or preventing against metastasis. Due to this aggressive treatment, the majority of long-term survivors will be left with permanent and debilitating neurocognitive impairments and, for the 30-40% patients that fail to respond to radiation, all will relapse with terminal metastatic disease. An understanding of the underlying biology that drives MB metastasis is lacking, and is critically needed in order to develop targeted therapeutics for its prevention. To examine the metastatic biology of sonic hedgehog (SHH) MB, the human MB subgroup with the worst clinical outcome, we first generated a robust SmoA1-Math-GFP mouse model that reliably reproduces human SHH MB whereby metastases can be visualized under fluorescence microscopy. Lipidome alterations associated with metastasis were then investigated by applying Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS) under both positive and negative ionization modes to primary tumor samples collected from mice with (n=18) and without (n=7) metastasis. This study provides the first insights into dysregulations of lipid metabolism associated with SHH MB metastatic progression, and thus serves as a guide toward novel targeted therapies.
