Glycosylation alterations in lung and brain cancer

Advances in Cancer Research

Abstract

Alterations in glycosylation are common in cancer and are thought to contribute to disease. Lung cancer and primary malignant brain cancer, most commonly glioblastoma, are genetically heterogeneous diseases with extremely poor prognoses. In this review, we summarize the data demonstrating that glycosylation is altered in lung and brain cancer. We then use specific examples to highlight the diverse roles of glycosylation in these two deadly diseases and illustrate shared mechanisms of oncogenesis. In addition to alterations in glycoconjugate biosynthesis, we also discuss mechanisms of postsynthetic glycan modification in cancer. We suggest that alterations in glycosylation in lung and brain cancer provide novel tumor biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Cancer Stem Cells in Glioblastoma

Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive type of brain tumor. It contains a population of tumor initiating stem cell-like cells known as cancer stem cells. Investigations are ongoing into these cancer stem cells found in these solid tumors which are highly resistance to treatment. Here is the latest research on cancer stem cells in glioblastoma.
