Kurzfassung:
Hypoxic tumor microenvironment (HTM) promotes a more aggressive and malignant state in glioblastoma. However, little is known about the role and mechanism of CXC chemokine ligand 14 (CXCL14) in HTM‐mediated glioblastoma progression. In this study, we report that CXCL14 expression correlated with poor outcomes, tumor grade, and hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF) expression in patients with glioblastoma. CXCL14 was upregulated in tumor cells within the hypoxic areas of glioblastoma. Hypoxia induced HIF‐dependent expression of CXCL14, which promoted glioblastoma tumorigenicity and invasiveness in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, CXCL14 gain‐of‐function in glioblastoma cells activated insulin‐like growth factor‐1 receptor (IGF‐1R) signal transduction to regulate the growth, invasiveness, and neurosphere formation of glioblastoma. Finally, systemic delivery of CXCL14 siRNA nanoparticles (NPs) with polysorbate 80 coating significantly suppressed tumor growth in vivo and extended the survival time in patient‐derived glioblastoma xenografts. Together, these findings suggest that HIF‐dependent CXCL14 expression contributes to HTM‐promoted glioblastoma tumorigenicity and invasiveness through activation of the IGF‐1R signaling pathway. CXCL14 siRNA NPs as an oligonucleotide drug can inhibit glioblastoma progression and constitute a translational path for the clinical treatment of glioblastoma patients.
