A positive feedback loop between Wnt/β‐catenin signaling and hTERT regulates the cancer stem cell‐like traits in radioresistant nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells
17 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Radioresistance may be induced by cancer stem cells (CSCs), while the biological traits of CSCs need to be retained by telomerase. The telomerase activity mainly depends on the transcriptional regulation of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). Moreover, Wnt/β-catenin signaling is also considered essential for maintaining the CSC phenotypes. In the previous study, we discovered that the radioresistant...
