Targeting Glioblastoma Stem Cells: Cell Surface Markers

Abstract excerpt

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor and among the most lethal cancers. There is increasing evidence that cancer stem cells within GBMs, which are often referred to as glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs), play a critical role in tumor initiation and maintenance. Identification of novel markers for GSCs will lead to better targeting of GSCs which could have tremendous impact on treatment...
