    Stem Cell–Like Reprogramming Is Required for Leukemia-Initiating Activity in B-ALL

    Researchers used the PAX5::ELN oncogenic model to demonstrate a causal link between the differentiation blockade, the self-renewal, and the emergence of pre-leukemic stem cells.
    [Journal of Experimental Medicine]

    Abstract

    Nebulized Therapy of Early Orthotopic Lung Cancer by Iron-Based Nanoparticles: Macrophage-Regulated Ferroptosis of Cancer Stem Cells

    Scientists developed a nebulized nanocatalytic medicine strategy in which iron-based nanoparticle-regulated tumor-associated macrophages effectively target CSC niches and trigger CSC ferroptosis in the early stage of lung cancer.
    [Journal Of The American Chemical Society]

    AbstractGraphical Abstract

    The STEMRI Trial: Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging Can Define Tumor Areas Enriched in Glioblastoma Stem-Like Cells

    Biopsy and derived-glioblastoma stem-like cell (GSC) characterization revealed a FLAIR/CNI+ sample enrichment in GSC and in gene signatures related to stemness, DNA repair, adhesion/migration, and mitochondrial bioenergetics.

    Claudin-1 Interacts With EPHA2 To Promote Cancer Stemness and Chemoresistance in Colorectal Cancer

    Scientists found that high Claudin-1 expression in colorectal cancer was associated with cancer stemness and chemoresistance signaling pathways in patient datasets, and it promotes chemoresistance both in vitro and in vivo.

    AbstractGraphical Abstract

    SAA Suppresses α-PD-1 Induced Anti-Tumor Immunity by Driving TH2 Polarization in Lung Adenocarcinoma

    The authors used single cell RNA sequence technology to identify the characteristic of CSCs. They found that the lung adenocarcinoma cancer stem population was highly inflammatory and remodeled the tumor microenvironment.
