Overexpression of Growth Differentiation Factor 15 in Glioblastoma Stem Cells Promotes Their Radioresistance
20 Dec 2023
Abstract excerpt
GSCs play an important role in GBM recurrence. Understanding the resistance mechanisms in these cells is therefore crucial for radiation therapy optimization. In this study, using patient-derived GSCs, we demonstrate that GDF15, a cytokine belonging to the TGF-β superfamily, is regulated by irradiation (IR) and the transcription factor WWTR1/TAZ. Blocking WWTR1/TAZ using specific siRNAs significantly reduces...
