dc.description.abstractMutant IDH1/2 gliomas represent a more indolent form of cancer. However, how this group of tumors progress, in a microenvironment-dependent manner, is still a pending question. Here we describe that the expression of Tau, a gene classically associated with neurodegenerative diseases, is epigenetically controlled by the balance between wild-type and mutant IDH1/2 in gliomas. Moreover, Tau is almost absent from tumors with EGFR mutations, whereas its expression is inversely correlated with overall survival in gliomas carrying wild-type or amplified EGFR. We demonstrate that the overexpression of Tau, through the stabilization of microtubules, impairs the mesenchymal/pericyte transformation of EGFRamp/wt glioma cells through the blockade of the EGFR-NFκB-TAZ axis. However, mutant EGFR induces a constitutive activation of this pathway, which is no longer sensitive to Tau. By inhibiting the phenotypic plasticity of EGFRamp/wt glioma cells, Tau protein inhibits angiogenesis and favors vascular normalization, decreasing tumor aggressiveness.
