Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) are a highly tumorigenic cell subgroup of glioblastoma (GBM). Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) is considered a key hub for promoting malignant phenotypes in GBM. However, the functional relationships between GSK3β and GSCs in GBM are unclear. Here, we found that GSK3β was noted as a substrate for ZDHHC4-mediated palmitoylation at the Cys14 residue, which enhanced GBM temozolomide (TMZ) resistance and GSC self-renewal. Clinically, the expression level of ZDHHC4 was upregulated in GBM, which significantly correlated with tumor grade and poor prognosis. The above phenotypes were based on decreasing p-Ser9 and increasing p-Tyr216 by GSK3β palmitoylation, which further activated the enhancer of the zeste homolog 2 (EZH2)-STAT3 pathway. Notably, STAT3 silencing also inhibited ZDHHC4 expression. This study revealed that GSK3β palmitoylation mediated by ZDHHC4 improved the stemness of TMZ-resistant GBM by activating the EZH2-STAT3 signaling axis, providing a new theoretical basis for further understanding the mechanism of TMZ resistance and recurrence after treatment.
