| Tumor samples from patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and non-TNBC revealed that increased numbers of CD56bright natural killer cells were present in TNBC tumors, and were correlated to poor overall survival in patients with TNBC. [Science Translational Medicine] |

|
| Scientists identified a long noncoding RNA, termed PVT1, which was highly expressed in CSCs and correlated closely with lymph node metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Investigators identified X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) as a key regulator of breast CSCs, which exhibit aldehyde dehydrogenase positive epithelial-and CD24loCD44hi mesenchymal-like phenotypes. [Oncogene] |

|
|
| To screen drugs to overcome differentiation blockade for acute myeloid leukemia, researchers conducted screening of 2040 small molecules from a library of US FDA-approved drugs and found that the cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor, abemaciclib, exerted high anti-leukemic activity. [British Journal Of Haematology] |
|
|
|
| Co-culture systems in vitro and co-implantation systems in vivo were designed to characterize the interactions between breast CSCs and bulk cancer cells. [Cell Communication and Signaling] |
|
|
|
| The authors explored the antiangiogenic mechanism of quinacrine-gold hybrid nanoparticle and near-infrared radiation in patient-derived primary breast CSCs. [Nanomedicine] |
|
|
|
| WD repeat domain 3 (WDR3) was negatively correlated with USF2, which was degraded by promoting ubiquitination of USF2, and USF2 interacted with promoter region-binding elements of RASSF1A to depress prostate cancer stemness and growth. [The Journal Of Gene Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Investigators validated the efficacy of in vivo detection of circulating tumor cells in bladder cancer (BC) patients. A total of 216 BC patients were enrolled in this study. [Medical Oncology] |
|
|
|
| The authors uncovered the relationship between cell density and CSCs, and the role of the Warburg effect in regulating CSC-like characteristics. [Biology Open] |
|
|
|
|
| Scientists describe the cutting-edge research undertaken in the field of nanotechnology and material science to develop biomaterials-based platforms as effective immunotherapeutics. [Acta Biomaterialia] |

|
| The 2024 spending plan President Joe Biden unveiled continues his administration’s pattern of asking for large increases at major US research agencies. [Science Insider] |
