Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal brain tumour that occurs in adults and treatment for GBM has been largely unsuccessful. Ionizing radiation (IR) and chemotherapeutic agents are employed as standard of care treatment for GBM patients and both result in DNA damage. Previous data identified phosphorylation of PTEN at tyrosine 240 (pY240) in samples from patients with recurrent GBM receiving standard of care treatment and was associated with decreased overall survival. Here we demonstrate that pY240 PTEN that was triggered by FGFR2 signaling, enhanced DNA repair by facilitating the loading of PTEN onto chromatin through its interaction with KI-67 and subsequent recruitment of the DNA repair protein, RAD51, to sites of DNA damage. Thus, tumour cells with pY240 PTEN are efficient at repairing DNA damage which would be predicted to result in resistance to therapy. These findings suggest the FGFR-pY240 PTEN-DNA repair mechanism as a therapeutic target for enhancing GBM therapy.
