Oct4 is expressed in human gliomas and promotes colony formation in glioma cells
4 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
There is increasing evidence that self-renewal capacity of cancer cells is critical for carcinogenesis; hence, it is vital to examine the expression and involvement of self-renewal regulatory genes in these cells. Here, we reported that Oct4, a well-known regulator of self-renewal in embryonic stem cells, was highly expressed in human gliomas and glioma cell lines, and the expression levels were increased in...
