    Cancer Stem Cell-Derived CHI3L1 Activates the MAF/CTLA4 Signaling Pathway to Promote Immune Escape in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Researchers utilized single-cell transcriptome sequencing to uncover the molecular mechanisms by which the CHI3L1/MAF/CTLA4 signaling pathway may mediate immune evasion in triple-negative breast cancer through the interaction between tumor stem cells and immune cells.

    TRAF7-Targeted HOXA5 Acts as a Tumor Suppressor in Prostate Cancer Progression and Stemness via Transcriptionally Activating SPRY2 and Regulating MEK/ERK Signaling

    Investigators identified the downregulation of HOXA5 in prostate cancer (PCa) tissues based on the TCGA database and further verified in 30-paired PCa and adjacent normal tissues.

    BIRC5: A Novel Therapeutic Target for Lung Cancer Stem Cells and Glioma Stem Cells

    Scientists confirmed that BIRC5 was a key factor regulating CSCs and epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). BIRC5 was simultaneously overexpressed in lung cancer stem cells and glioma stem cells, and when the expression was suppressed, the characteristics of CSCs disappeared.

    Celastrus orbiculatus Extract Suppresses Gastric Cancer Stem Cells through the TGF-β/Smad Signaling Pathway

    Investigators demonstrated that Celastrus orbiculatus ethyl acetate extract (COE) displayed a strong inhibitory effect on GCSCs growth and CSCs markers. Moreover, COE was shown to efficiently inhibited the development of tumor spheres and accelerate GCSCs apoptosis.

    New Prostate Cancer Treatment May Be ‘On the Horizon’, Say Scientists

    Some advanced forms of prostate cancer find it is able to evade treatment by using their immune system to resist the impact of drugs. Now scientists have discovered a way to stop it being able to do this, opening up the possibility of treatments for men left with little hope.
