To combat deadly brain cancer, target the stem cells

labspaces.net — “Researchers have uncovered a new target that could stop the growth of glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer. In the July 8th issue of the journal Cell, a Cell Press publication, a new study identifies an enzyme found in glioma stem cells that allows them to grow and seed tumors. Importantly, normal stem cells, including those in the brain, don't appear to share that same dependency.View full resource at labspaces.net

Gene Vital To Brain's Stem Cells Implicated In Deadly Brain Cancer

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have identified a protein that activates brain stem cells to make new neurons -- but that may be hijacked later in life to cause brain cancer in humans. The protein called Huwe1 normally functions to eliminate other unnecessary proteins and was found to act as a tumor suppressor in brain cancer.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
