| The authors presented exploratory analyses on the use of ctDNA testing as an additional method to identify castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with homologous recombination repair gene alterations who may be eligible for olaparib treatment. [Clinical Cancer Research] |

|
| Using a spontaneous model of mammary carcinoma, investigators identified bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal stem cells as the first sensors of distal cancer cells and key mediators of BM reprogramming. [Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| While HoxA9 alone immortalizes cells, cooperation with Meis1 is necessary to induce a full leukemic phenotype. Here, the authors applied degron techniques to elucidate the leukemogenic contribution of Meis1. [Haematologica] |
|
|
|
| Researchers identified the long noncoding RNA, LINC00589 as a key regulatory node for concurrent intervention of multiple chemoresistance and cancer stem cell-like properties in breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. [npj Breast Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that Sohlh2 was related to the inhibition of LncRNA-H19/miR-141/β-catenin signaling and led to the consequent suppression of colon cancer stem cell (CSC) stemness and the promotion of colon CSC differentiation in vitro and in vivo. [Molecular Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| ShRNA-mediated H3K79 methyltransferase disruptor of telomeric silencing-1-like (DOT1L) knockdown decreased the aldehyde dehydrogenase + cell population, impaired the tumor initiation capacity of ovarian CSCs, and blocked the expression of stemness-associated genes. [Molecular Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that the extracellular vesicles-mediated crosstalk between melanoma stem cells and melanoma parental cells was a novel mechanism for melanoma metastasis. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Mechanistically, exosomal miR-181d-5p transferred from cancer associated fibroblasts to recal cell carcinoma cells directly suppressed the expression of ring finger protein 43, and activated the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, thus promoting cancer stemness and tumor progression. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Researchers established two liver cancer stem cells (LCSC) lines, HepG2-R and HuH-7-R. Constitutive activation of HSF1 was observed in these LCSCs. [Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology] |

|
|
|
| The authors discuss about connections between CSCs with the immune ecosystem of tumors and the impact of such interactions on cancer responses to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. [Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the therapeutic impact of vitamin D and its molecular processes to target cancer and cancer stem cells. [Medical Oncology] |
