DLG5 was upregulated in malignant gliomas compared to other solid tumors, being the predominant DLG member in all glioblastoma molecular subtypes. DLG5 promoted glioblastoma stem cell invasion, viability, and self-renewal.

Scientists discovered an intrinsic signaling scaffold function of THEMIS2, which acted as a novel regulator of cancer stemness in promoting multiple cancer stemness properties including sphere formation, stemness markers expression, chemoresistance and tumorigenicity with low numbers of cancer cells implantation.

Investigators discovered a specificity protein 1-induced long noncoding RNA—DPPA2 upstream binding RNA (DUBR) and its high expression in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and liver CSCs. [Cancer Letters]

Scientists performed a series of experiments to verify whether HIF1α, HIF2α and Sox2 regulated glioma cell dedifferentiation under hypoxic conditions. Sphere formation by single glioma cells was observed, and CD133 and CD15 expression was compared between the normoxic and hypoxic groups.

Investigators established chemo-resistant melanoma cells and found that expression of stemness genes were upregulated in the resistant melanoma cells. And Astragalus polysaccharide could downregulate expression of stemness genes.

Scientists assessed adipogenic differentiation and its effect on the proliferation and stemness markers in CD44+ oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) CSCs. D44+ CSCs were sorted by magnetic sorting from the single-cell suspension of the OSCC tumor.
