Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor stem cells derived from glioblastomas cultured in bFGF and EGF more closely mirror the phenotype and genotype of primary tumors than do serum-cultured cell lines.

TL;DR: Significant phenotypic and genotypic differences are demonstrated between primary human tumor-derived TSCs and their matched glioma cell lines, suggesting that TSC's may be a more reliable model than many commonly utilized cancer cell lines for understanding the biology of primary human tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

SSEA-1 Is an Enrichment Marker for Tumor-Initiating Cells in Human Glioblastoma

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that stage-specific embryonic antigen 1(SSEA-1/LeX)+ GBM cells fulfill the functional criteria for TSC/TIC, since S SEA-1+ cells are highly tumorigenic in vivo, unlike SSEA- 1- cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of Notch-1 and its ligands, Delta-like-1 and Jagged-1, is critical for glioma cell survival and proliferation.

TL;DR: These results show, for the first time, the dependence of cancer cells on a single Notch ligand; they suggest a potential Notch juxtacrine/autocrine loop in gliomas and may present novel therapeutic targets in the treatment of glioma.
