|
| The authors utilized a co-culture model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and estrogen receptor+ breast cancer cells to recapitulate interactions of cancer cells in bone marrow niches. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Researchers used a reference of 14,968 human endogenous retroviruses (HERV) functional units to provide a thorough analysis of HERV expression in normal and acute myeloid leukemia bone marrow cells. [American Journal of Hematology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists showed that high TLR2 expression is linked to poor prognosis in breast cancer patients, therefore representing a candidate target for breast cancer treatment. [Oncoimmunology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the effect of garcinone C on cancer stemness and invasiveness in colorectal cancer; Gli1 was noted as pivotal in maintaining stemness and invasiveness in HCT116 and HT29 CSCs. [Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the role of cancer stem cell-like cells-derived exosomal CDKN2B-AS1 in thyroid cancer and the underlying regulatory mechanism. [Experimental Cell Research] |

|
| CDC20 knockdown did not increase TMZ- and radiation-induced DNA damage, or alter DNA damage repair, but rather promoted cell death through accumulation of the pro-apoptotic protein, Bim. [PLoS One] |
|
|
|
| The authors indicated that C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) mediated the upregulation of Kruppel like factor 5, a zinc-finger-containing transcription factor, to facilitate the proliferation of glioma initiating cells. [Cell Biology International] |

|
Researchers identified the antitumourigenic activities of the medicinal compound chelerythrine chloride (CHE) on melanoma CSCs. CHE induced apoptosis in A375 and A2058 CSCs. [Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine] |

|
|
| Investigators discuss whether stem-ness enables metastasis or mutations drive metastasis. They ponder about low-grade versus high-grade tumors and about primary versus metastatic tumors. [Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology] |

|
| To increase public understanding of the causes of prostate cancer, the University of HawaiÊ»i Cancer Center will lead a $3.5 million public impact research study to further our understanding of prostate cancer to improve prediction of future disease. [University of Hawai’i News] |
