主 题:S0X2 cancer stem cells(CSCs) drug resistance therapeutic potentials
摘 要:Cancer stem cells(CSCs),a minor subpopulation of tumor bulks with self-renewal and seeding capacity to generate new tumors,posit a significant challenge to develop effective and long-lasting anti-cancer *** emergence of drug resistance appears upon failure of chemo-/radiation therapy to eradicate the CSCs,thereby leading to CSC-mediated clinical *** evidence suggests that transcription factor SOX2,a master regulator of embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells,drives cancer stemness,fuels tumor initiation,and contributes to tumor aggressiveness through major drug resistance mechanisms like epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition,ATP-binding cassette drug transporters,anti-apoptotic and/or pro-survival signaling,lineage plasticity,and evasion of immune *** a better insight and comprehensive interrogation into the mechanistic basis of SOX2-mediated generation of CSCs and treatment failure might therefore lead to new therapeutic targets involving CSC-specific anti-cancer strategies.
