A maximal surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ) as the representative agent is the standard therapy for gliomas. However, tumor cell resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy leads to poor prognosis and high mortality in patients with glioma. In the present study, we demonstrated that JARID2 was downregulated and CCND1 was upregulated within glioma tissues of different grades and glioma cells. In tissue samples, JARID2 was negatively correlated with CCND1. JARID2 overexpression significantly inhibited glioma cell viability, promoted glioma cell apoptosis upon TMZ treatment, and increased p21, cleaved-PARP, and cleaved-caspase3 in TMZ-treated glioma cells. JASPAR tool predicted the possible binding sites between JARID2 and CCND1 promoter regions; through direct binding to CCND1 promoter region, JARID2 negatively regulated CCND1 expression. Under TMZ treatment, JARID2 overexpression inhibited CCND1 expression, promoted glioma cell apoptosis, and increased p21, cleaved-PARP, and cleaved-caspase3 in glioma cells treated with TMZ; meanwhile, CCND1 overexpression exerted opposite effects on glioma cells treated with TMZ and partially reversed the effects of JARID2 overexpression. In conclusion, JARID2 targets and inhibits CCND1. The JARID2/CCND1 axis modulates glioma cell growth and glioma cell sensitivity to TMZ.

Primary brain tumors that were the most severe and aggressive were called glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Cancers are caused in part by aberrant expression of circular RNA. Often referred to as competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA), circRNA molecules act as "miRNA sponges" in cells by decreasing the inhibitory impact of miRNA on their target genes and hence raising the expression levels of those genes.

Metabolic reprogramming stands out as a defining characteristic of cancer, including glioblastoma (GB), enabling tumor cells to overcome growth and survival challenges in adverse conditions. The dysregulation of metabolic processes in GB is crucial to its pathogenesis, influencing both tumorigenesis and the disease's invasive tendencies. This altered metabolism supplies essential energy substrates for uncontrolled cell proliferation and also creates an immunosuppressive microenvironment, complicating conventional therapies.

Ependymoma (EPN) is a common form of brain tumor in children, often resistant to available cytotoxic therapies. Molecular profiling studies have led to a better understanding of EPN subtypes and revealed a critical role of oncogenes ZFTA-RELA fusion and EPHB2 in supratentorial ependymoma (ST-EPN). However, the immune system's role in tumor progression and response to therapy remains poorly understood.
