Chemoresistance is a major clinical challenge in the management of glioblastoma (GBM) Temozolomide (TMZ) is the chemotherapeutic drug of choice for GBM; however, the therapeutic effect of TMZ is limited due to the development of resistance. Recapitulating GBM chemoresistance in a controlled environment is thus essential in understanding the mechanism of chemoresistance. Herein, we present a hybrid microphysiological model of chemoresistant GBM-on-a-chip (HGoC) by directly co-culturing TMZ-resistant GBM spheroids with healthy neurons to mimic the microenvironment of both the tumor and the surrounding healthy tissue. We characterized the model with proteomics, lipidomics, and secretome assays. The results showed that our artificial model recapitulated the molecular signatures of recurrent GBM in humans. Both showed alterations in vesicular transport and cholesterol pathways, mitotic quiescence, and a switch in metabolism to oxidative phosphorylation associated with a transition from mesenchymal to amoeboid. This is the first report to unravel the interplay of all these molecular changes as a mechanism of chemoresistance in glioblastoma. Moreover, we have shown that the acquisition of resistance increases invasiveness and the presence of neurons decreases this property.
