    Intracavity Generation of Glioma Stem Cell–Specific CAR Macrophages Primes Locoregional Immunity for Postoperative Glioblastoma Therapy

    The authors reported a cavity-injectable nanoporter-hydrogel superstructure that created glioma stem cell-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) macrophages/microglia surrounding the cavity to prevent glioblastoma multiforme relapse.

    Propofol Enhances Stem-Like Properties of Glioma via GABAAR-Dependent Src Modulation of ZDHHC5-EZH2 Palmitoylation Mechanism

    The authors found that treatment with a standard dose of propofol promoted glioma growth in nude mice compared with control or low-dose propofol. Propofol-treated glioma stem cells also led to larger tumor growth in nude mice than did vector-treated tumors.

    Hypoxia-Induced HMGB1 Promotes Glioma Stem Cells Self-Renewal and Tumorigenicity via RAGE

    Investigators reported that high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was overexpressed in human glioblastoma specimens. Hypoxia promoted the expression and secretion of HMGB1 in glioma stem cells.

    Abstract

    The Inhibitory Effect and Mechanism of Yi-Qi-Hua-Yu-Jie-Du Decoction on the Drug Resistance of Gastric Cancer Stem Cells Based on ABC Transporters

    Researchers constructed a reliable gastric cancer (GC) drug-resistant stem cell model and explored the inhibitory effect and mechanism of Yi-qi-hua-yu-jie-du medicated serum on the drug resistance of GC stem cells based on ABC transporters.

    Dysregulated FOXM1 Signaling in the Regulation of Cancer Stem Cells

    The authors compile the large body of literature that has accumulated in recent years that provides evidence for the mechanisms by which FOXM1 expression promotes stemness in glioblastoma, breast, colon, ovarian, lung, hepatic, and pancreatic carcinomas.
