ABSTRACT
Glioma is a heterogeneous cellular environment in which immune cells play critical roles in tumor progression. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) contribute to the formation of the immunosuppressive microenvironment of glioma; however, how glioma cells interact with MDSCs and how this interaction affects the function of other immune cells are unclear. Glioma cells can systemically communicate with immune cells via the secretion of exosomes, which contain microRNAs (miRNAs). Leveraging miRNA sequencing of exosomes, we identified enrichment of miR-1246 in glioma-derived exosomes and exosomes isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of glioma patients. We demonstrated that miR-1246 drives the differentiation and activation of MDSCs in a dual specificity phosphatase 3 (DUSP3)/extracellular signalregulated kinase (ERK)-dependent manner. In addition, postoperative CSF exosomal miR-1246 expression was found to be associated with the glioma recurrence rate. Hypoxia, a well-recognized feature of the glioblastoma microenvironment, increased miR-1246 levels in glioma-derived exosomes by enhancing miR-1246 transcription and selective packaging via upregulation of POU class 5 homeobox 1 (POU5F1) and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNPA1). Importantly, we identified a mechanism of 2-methoxyestradiol, a microtubule inhibitor currently undergoing clinical trials for glioblastoma. 2-Methoxyestradiol suppresses MDSC activation by inhibiting hypoxia-driven exosomal miR-1246 expression in glioma cells and PD-L1 expression in MDSCs.
