| Investigators demonstrated how cyclin-dependent kinase 8 (CDK8) played an essential role in maintaining stemness and tumorigenicity in glioma stem cells.

|
| The authors tested HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates in two immunocompetent mouse tumor models.

|
| Scientists observed high Shc3 expression in patients with chemoresistant and recurrent hepatocellular carcinomas. Shc3 overexpression induced a significant increase in MDR1/P-glycoprotein expression, whereas Shc3 knockdown impaired this expression.

|
|
|
| Researchers examined p97 expression in the stem-like cancer cells or CSCs, a cell population that purportedly underscores cancer initiation, therapeutic resistance, and recurrence.

|
|
| The authors showed that the loss of the junctional scaffold protein MAGI1 was associated with bad prognosis in luminal breast cancer, and promoted tumorigenesis.

|
| Employing hormone-independent mammary cancer models, Gö6976 and all-trans-retinoic acid combined treatment induced a synergistic reduction in proliferative potential that correlated with an increased apoptosis and RARs modulation towards an anti-oncogenic profile.

|
|
|
| The authors investigated B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus integration site 1 (BMI1) expression in brain tumors using microarray datasets in ONCOMINE, which indicated that BMI1 levels were not commonly increased in clinical brain tumors.

|
|
| CSC phenotype cells were isolated and the expression of stem cell marker and epithelial-mesenchymal transition associated gene was confirmed by various assays.

Gastric cancer stem-like cells were transfected by hsa-miR-451b inhibitor then researchers used real-time RT-PCR to evaluate its effect on the expression of hsa-miR-451b and two of its direct target genes, stemness markers such as KLF4, SOX2, CD44, OCT3/4 and NANOG genes.

|
| Since CSCs mirror the phenotypic behavior of stem cells, scientists describe the roles played by YY1 in embryonic and adult stem cells.
[Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] |
|
|
|
| The author examines the last two decades of CSC studies in the field. Seminal discoveries, emerging controversies and outstanding questions will be covered with a particular focus on medulloblastoma, the most common malignant primary brain tumor in children.

| AVEO Oncology announced that it has entered into a clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with Bristol Myers Squibb to evaluate FOTIVDA® in combination with OPDIVO®, Bristol Myers Squibb’s anti-PD-1 therapy, in the pivotal Phase III TiNivo-2 trial in patients with advanced relapsed or refractory renal cell carcinoma following prior immunotherapy exposure.
