Hostile takeover: glioma stem cells recruit TAMs to support tumor progression

Abstract

The dynamic interaction between cancer cells and immune cells is a critical concern for developing effective tumor immunotherapies. In a recent issue of Nature Cell Biology, Zhou et al. (2015) report that glioma stem cells secrete Periostin (POSTN), which recruits tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and supports the tumor-promoting M2 subtype.

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.
