Immunotherapy for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is limited because of a strongly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Remodeling the immune TME an effective strategy to eliminate GBM immunotherapy resistance. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) are inherently resistant chemotherapy and radiotherapy involved in evasion mechanism. This study aimed investigate effects histone methyltransferases 2 (EHMT2 or G9a) on whether this effect was related changes cell stemness.Tumor-infiltrating were...

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are an important part of liquid biopsy as they represent a potentially rich source information for cancer diagnosis, monitoring, prognosis, and treatment guidance. It has been proved that the nanotopography interaction between surface CTC detection platforms can significantly improve capture efficiency CTCs, whereas many mature nanostructure substrates have developed based on chemistry materials. In this work, natural biointerface with unique biological...

Abstract Inhibitors of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) are commonly used in the clinic, but they beneficial for only a minority glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients. GBM has significant immunosuppressive properties, there many cells dysfunctional effector T tumor microenvironment (TME), which is one important reasons failure clinical treatment GBM. Here, we have identified P21 activated kinase 4 (PAK4) as pivotal immune...

Glioma has been investigated for decades, but the prognosis remains poor because of rapid proliferation, its aggressive potential, and resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR) is highly expressed regulates cellular proliferation cell growth. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene transcription translation via up-regulating down-regulating levels miRNAs. This study was conducted explore molecular functions miR-199a-3p in...

ABCG2 is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter family, which has been detected in wide variety human aggressive tumors, including glioma stem cells (GSCs), tissues higher grades, and implanted xenografts. Previous research implied that might be associated closely with invasion spread tumors. However, specific roles mechanisms regulating migration GSCs remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to identify effects on by GSCs. Our results showed downregulation protein significantly...

Background: Immune cells recognize tumor antigens presented on major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) molecule. Increase of MHC-I molecular expression makes more susceptible to lysis by immune cells. Methods: Tumor lysate vaccine was prepared damage glioma including cell lines and primary cultured from surgical samples. The enhanced effect histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) observed. expressions pathway molecules were detected flow cytometry western blot after HDACi treatment....

Abstract Bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) family proteins are considered to be epigenetic readers that regulate gene expression by recognizing acetyl lysine residues on histones nonhistone chromatin factors have been classified as curative targets for a variety of cancers. Glioma‐initiating cells (GICs), which commit self‐renewal, perpetual proliferation, multidirectional differentiation, vigorous tumorigenicity, sustain the peculiar genetic diversification in GBM patients, thus,...
