    RFX2 Promotes Tumor Cell Stemness through Epigenetic Regulation of PAF1 in Spinal Ependymoma

    The authors investigated the molecular mechanism that induced stem cell features in spinal ependymoma (SE). They found that RFX2 activates PAF1 transcription, which promoted tumor stemness of SE cells and led to the malignant progression of SE.

    Abstract

    TRIM28 Suppresses Cancer Stem-Like Characteristics in Gastric Cancer Cells through Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathways

    Investigators explored the important effects of TRIM28 on gastric cancer (GC) and uncovered underling molecular mechanisms. They found that TRIM28 has an important influence on regulating the stem-like property of GC cell via Wnt/β-catenin signaling.

    Abstract

    Boric Acid Alters the Expression of DNA Double Break Repair Genes in MCF-7-Derived Breast Cancer Stem Cells

    The authors investigated the effects of boric acid on the expression of DNA double-strand break repair genes in breast CSCs, which has not been studied in the literature before.
