    DTX-P7, a Peptide–Drug Conjugate, Is Highly Effective for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
    Investigators constructed a cooperatively combating conjugate (DTX-P7) composed of docetaxel (DTX) and a heptapeptide, which specifically bound to cell surface Hsp90, and assessed the anti-tumor effects of DTX-P7 on non-small cell lung cancer.

    Differentiated Glioma Cell-Derived Fibromodulin Activates Integrin-Dependent Notch Signaling in Endothelial Cells to Promote Tumor Angiogenesis and Growth
    Proteomic analysis showed a higher abundance of the extracellular matrix small leucine-rich proteoglycan Fibromodulin in the conditioned medium of differentiated glioma cells, the equivalent of glioma non-CSCs, compared to that of glioma stem-like cells.

    Abstract

    Testicular Cancer in Mice: Interplay between Stem Cells and Endocrine Insults
    Neonatal DES exposure affected testicular very small embryonic-like stem cells and spermatogonial stem cells and resulted in infertility, reduced sperm counts, and tumor-like changes leading to the postulate that testicular dysgenesis syndrome possibly has a stem cell basis.

    Abstract

    Effect of Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia-Induced HIF-1α/ATAD2 Expression on Lung Cancer Stemness
    Researchers evaluated the relative expression of AAA domain-containing protein 2 (ATAD2) in four lung cancer cell lines and found increased mRNA and protein levels of ATAD2 in lung cancer samples.

    TRG16, Targeted by miR-765, Inhibits Breast Cancer Stem Cell-Like Properties via Regulating the NF-κB Pathway
    The authors found that TRG16 expression was significantly downregulated in breast cancer (BC) tissues compared with adjacent tissues and BC patients with lower expression of TRG16 had a worse prognosis.
