Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Gliomas are most common type of brain tumor and malignant gliomas have high recurrence rates and poor prognosis. In recent years, cancer stem cells are considered to be a cause of metastasis and recurrence after treatment. Since past therapeutic strategy against glioma targets whole tumor cells, these strategy are not effective for cancer stem cells which shows resistant to therapy. Here, we established human glioma stem cell lines and constructed molecular basis to specifically express therapeutic genes in glioma stem cells.
