Metabolic Alterations in Highly Tumorigenic Glioblastoma Cells
28 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies suggest that a small subpopulation of malignant cells with stem-like properties is resistant to chemotherapy and may be responsible for the existence of residual cancer after treatment. We have isolated highly tumorigenic cancer cells with 100-fold increase in tumor initiating capacity from the tumor xenografts of human glioblastoma U87 cells in mice. These cells exhibit stem-like properties and...
