Ring finger protein 43 associates with gastric cancer progression and attenuates the stemness of gastric cancer stem-like cells via the Wnt-β/catenin signaling pathway

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) is a member of the transmembrane E3 ubiquitin ligase family that was originally found in stem cells and plays important roles in tumor formation and progression. Our previous study indicated that RNF43 might be a

Numb-like (NumbL) downregulation increases tumorigenicity, cancer stem cell-like properties and resistance to chemotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
NumbL, or Numb-like, is a close homologue of Numb, and is part of an evolutionary conserved protein family implicated in some important cellular processes. Numb is a protein involved in cell development, in cell adhesion and migration, in asymmetric cell

Synergistic combination of perphenazine and temozolomide suppresses patient-derived glioblastoma tumorspheres

open access: yesNeuro-Oncology
Abstract Background Glioblastoma (GBM), a primary malignant brain tumor, has a poor prognosis, even with standard treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In this study, we explored the anticancer effects of the synergistic combination of perphenazine (PER), a dopamine receptor D2/3 (DRD2/3 ...

Tumorspheres as In Vitro Model for Identifying Predictive Chemoresistance and Tumor Aggressiveness Biomarkers in Breast and Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesBiology
Chemoresistance remains a major challenge in the treatment of breast and colorectal cancer. For this reason, finding reliable predictive biomarkers of response to chemotherapy has become a significant research focus in recent years.

Characterization of tumorspheres generated from nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line, TW06 and chemoresistance to docetaxel and oxaliplatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this study, tumorspheres were generated from TW06 nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line and examined their expression of putative cancer stem-like cell surface markers and drug sensitivity.

Nestin+cells forming spheroids aggregates resembling tumorspheres in experimental ENU-induced gliomas.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2016
Nestin+cells from spheroid aggregates display typical histopathological features compatible with cell stemness. Nestin and CD133+cells found in glioblastomas, distributed frequently around aberrant vessels, are considered as potential cancer stem cells.

Tumorspheres but Not Adherent Cells Derived from Retinoblastoma Tumors Are of Malignant Origin

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Verification that cell lines used for cancer research are derived from malignant cells in primary tumors is imperative to avoid invalidation of study results. Retinoblastoma is a childhood ocular tumor that develops from loss of functional retinoblastoma protein (pRb) as a result of genetic or epigenetic changes that affect both alleles of the RB1 gene.

Disruption of bioenergetics enhances the radio-sensitivity of patient-derived glioblastoma tumorspheres

open access: yesTranslational Oncology
Despite available treatment approaches, including surgical resection along with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, glioblastoma (GBM), the most prevalent primary brain tumor, remains associated with a grim prognosis. Although radiotherapy is central to GBM treatment, its combination with bioenergetics regulators has not been validated in clinical practice.
