    Expression of GALNT8 and O-glycosylation of BMP Receptor 1A Suppress Breast Cancer Cell Proliferation by Upregulating ERα Levels

    Immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, lectin blot and quantitative real-time PCR were used to investigate the expression of N-acetyl-α-galactosaminyltransferases (GALNT8) and its role in regulating estrogen receptor α via bone morphogenetic protein signaling.

    Reg4 Interacts with CD44 to Regulate Proliferation and Stemness of Colorectal and Pancreatic Cancer Cells

    Researchers identified the cell surface binding partner of Reg4 and dissecting its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) and pancreatic cancer (PC) growth and stem cell survival. In vitro models of human CRC and PC were used to evaluate the results.

    Abstract

    Novel Cancer Stem Cell Marker MVP Enhances Temozolomide-Resistance in Glioblastoma

    Researchers found that sensitivity toTemozolomide (TMZ) was suppressed by significantly increasing the major vault protein (MVP) expression in glioblastoma multiforme cells with TMZ resistance.

    Circulating Cancer Stem Cells Expressing EpCAM/CD90 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Pilot Study for Predicting Tumor Recurrence after Living Donor Liver Transplantation

    Epithelial cell adhesion molecule+ (EpCAM+), cluster of differentiation 90+ (CD90+) and EpCAM+/CD90+ circulating tumor cells were sorted via fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and transcripts level of EpCAM, K19 and CD90 in the peripheral blood were analyzed via real-time polymerase chain reaction preoperatively.
