High expression of a novel splicing variant of VEGF, L-VEGF144 in glioblastoma multiforme is associated with a poorer prognosis in bevacizumab treatment.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:A previous study confirmed that a novel splicing variant of large vascular endothelial growth factor (L-VEGF) termed L-VEGF144, a nucleolus protein, is found in glioblastoma cells and specimens, but the actual biological function and clinical significance of L-VEGF144 remain unclear. METHODS:In this study, we analyzed the expression of L-VEGF144 in 68 glioblastoma multiforme specimens using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis. RESULTS:The results showed that the high expression of L-VEGF144 was associated with a poor prognosis in the bevacizumab plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide treatment. In addition, we constructed a series truncated and mutant form of L-VEGF144 to confirm that exon 6a of L-VEGF144 is able to engage in the nuclear importation and found that 8 lysines within exon 6a play a critical role in the nucleolus aggregation of L-VEGF144. Also, the transfection of the L-VEGF144 increased the number of nucleoli. Furthermore, the recombinant protein Flag-L-VEGF144 and commercial VEGF protein have similar growth stimulatory activities in terms of inducing glioblastoma cell proliferation in vitro. CONCLUSIONS:Taken together, these results indicated that the expression of L-VEGF144 could potentially serve as an independent indicator of poor prognosis in bevacizumab treatment.
