EZH2 functional dichotomy in reactive oxygen species-stratified glioblastoma

EZH2, well-known for its canonical methyltransferase activity in transcriptional repression in many cancers including glioblastoma (GBM), has an understudied non-canonical function critical for sustained tumor growth.

description EZH2, well-known for its canonical methyltransferase activity in transcriptional repression in many cancers including glioblastoma (GBM), has an understudied non-canonical function critical for sustained tumor growth. Recent GBM consortial efforts reveal complex molecular heterogeneity for which therapeutic vulnerabilities correlated with subtype stratification remain relatively unexplored. Current enzymatic EZH2 inhibitors (EZH2inh) targeting its canonical SET domain show limited efficacy and lack durable response, suggesting that underlying differences in the non-canonical pathway may yield new knowledge. Here, we unveiled dual roles of the EZH2 CXC domain in therapeutically-distinct, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-stratified tumors. We analyzed differentially expressed genes between ROS classes by examining cis-regulatory elements as well as clustering of activities and pathways to identify EZH2 as the key mediator in ROS-stratified cohorts. Pull-down assays and CRISPR knockout of EZH2 domains were used to dissect the distinct functions of EZH2 in ROS-stratified GBM cells. The efficacy of NF-κB-inducing kinase inhibitor (NIKinh) and standard-of-care temozolomide was evaluated using orthotopic patient-derived GBM xenografts. In ROS(+) tumors, CXC-mediated co-interaction with RelB drives constitutive activation of non-canonical NF-κB2 signaling, sustaining the ROS(+) chemoresistant phenotype. In contrast, in ROS(-) subtypes, PRC2 methyltransferase activity represses canonical NF-κB. Addressing the lack of EZH2inh targeting its non-methyltransferase roles, we utilized a brain-penetrant NIKinh that disrupts EZH2-RelB binding, consequently prolonging survival in orthotopic ROS(+)-implanted mice. Our findings highlight the functional dichotomy of the EZH2 CXC domain in governing ROS-stratified therapeutic resistance, thereby advocating for the development of therapeutic approaches targeting its non-canonical activities and underscoring the significance of patient stratification methodologies.
