    A CD10-OGP Membrane Peptolytic Signaling Axis in Fibroblasts Regulates Lipid Metabolism of Cancer Stem Cells via SCD1

    Scientists demonstrated that the CD10 transmembrane hydrolase expressed on a subset of carcinoma-associated fibroblasts supported tumor stemness and induced chemoresistance.

    Empty Spiracles Homeobox Genes EMX1 and EMX2 Regulate WNT Pathway Activation in Sarcomagenesis

    Bioinformatic analysis, quantitative mRNA and protein expression analysis, cell models of sarcoma by ectopic expression of EMX genes. Researchers measured tumorigenesis and populations enriched on stem cell phenotypes, either in vitro or in vivo.

    5α-Epoxyalantolactone Inhibits Metastasis of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells by Covalently Binding a Conserved Cysteine of Annexin A2

    A natural product 5α-epoxyalantolactone (5α-EAL) was discovered as an anti-breast CSCs lead compound 5α-EAL was found to be able to notably suppress the function of ANXA2 by covalently targeting cysteine 9 of ANXA2.

    LncRNA DUXAP10 Up-Regulation and the Hedgehog Pathway Activation Are Critically Involved in Chronic Cadmium Exposure-Induced Cancer Stem Cell-Like Property

    Cadmium (Cd)-induced malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelia BEAS-2B cells was accomplished by a nine-month low dose Cd exposure. The Cd-exposed cells formed significantly more colonies in soft agar, displayed CSC-like properties and formed tumors in nude mice.

    Abstract

    Bazedoxifene Inhibits Sustained STAT3 Activation and Increases Survival in GBM

    Scientists identified a novel mechanism of biphasic activation of STAT3 in response to gp130-linked cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL6), in which activation of STAT3 was prolonged by circumventing the negative regulatory mechanisms induced by its initial activation

    Abstract

    Expression of Cancer Stem Cell Markers in Tall Cell Variant Papillary Thyroid Cancer Identifies a Molecular Profile Predictive of Recurrence in Classic Papillary Thyroid Cancer

    Expression of CSC markers was examined in 572 thyroid tumors from The Cancer Genome Atlas Thyroid Cancer database and tall cell variant and papillary thyroid carcinoma tumors by immunohistochemistry.

    Abstract

    ONECUT2 Which Is Targeted by Hsa-miR-15a-5p Enhances Stemness Maintenance of Gastric Cancer Stem Cells

    The authors demonstrated significant overexpression of ONECUT2 and down-regulation of hsa-miR-15a-5p in gastric cancer via bioinformatics analysis and in vitro assays.

    Abstract

    Molecular Characterization of AEBP1 at Transcriptional Level in Glioma

    Three datasets were used to perform the analysis to search for the key genes related to glioma stem cell, temozolomide resistance, and prognosis. The key gene for further research was selected by reviewing the previous studies.
