ABSTRACT
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive, heterogeneous brain tumor in which glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) are known culprits of therapy resistance. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play a critical role in both cancer and normal biology. A few studies have suggested that aberrant expression of lncRNAs is associated with GSCs. However, a comprehensive single-cell analysis of the GSC-associated lncRNA transcriptome has not been carried out. Here, we analyzed recently published single-cell RNA sequencing datasets of adult GBM tumors, GBM organoids, GSC-enriched GBM tumors, and developing human brain samples to identify lncRNAs highly expressed in GSCs. We further revealed that the GSC-specific lncRNAs GIHCG and LINC01563 promote proliferation, migration, and stemness in the GSC population. Together, this study identified a panel of uncharacterized GSC-enriched lncRNAs and set the stage for future in-depth studies to examine their role in GBM pathology and their potential as biomarkers and/or therapeutic targets in GBM.
