The effects of BMP2 and the mechanisms involved in the invasion and angiogenesis of IDH1 mutant glioma cells.

Purpose: This study investigated the effect of an isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation (mutIDH1) on the invasion and angiogenesis of human glioma cells. Methods: Doxycycline was used to induce the expression of mutIDH1 in glioma cells. Transwell and wound healing assays were conducted to assess glioma cell migration and invasion. Western blotting and cell immunofluorescence were used to measure the expression levels of various proteins. The influence of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) on invasion, angiogenesis-related factors, BMP2-related receptor expression, and changes in Smad signaling pathway-related proteins were evaluated after treatment with BMP2. Differential gene expression and reference transcription analysis were performed. Results: Successful infection with recombinant lentivirus expressing mutIDH1 was demonstrated. The IDH1 mutation promoted glioma cell migration and invasion while positively regulating the expression of vascularization-related factors and BMP2-related receptors. BMP2 exhibited a positive regulatory effect on the migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of mutIDH1-glioma cells, possibly mediated by BMP2-induced alterations in Smad signaling pathway-related factors.After BMP2 treatment, the differential genes of MutIDH1-glioma cells are closely related to the regulation of cell migration and cell adhesion, especially the regulation of Smad-related proteins. KEGG analysis confirmed that it was related to BMP signaling pathway and TGF-β signaling pathway and cell adhesion. Enrichment analysis of gene ontology and genome encyclopedia further confirmed the correlation of these pathways. Conclusion: Mutation of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 promotes the migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of glioma cells, through its effects on the BMP2-driven Smad signaling pathway. In addition, BMP2 altered the transcriptional patterns of mutIDH1 glioma cells, enriching different gene loci in pathways associated with invasion, migration, and angiogenesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
