Innovative Therapeutic Strategies Targeting Colorectal Cancer Stem Cells
2017
Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death. Although many advances in the treatment of this disease have been made, a large number of patients develop metastasis and resistance to current therapies. The current evidence indicates that cancer stem cells (CSCs) and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) have crucial roles in colorectal carcinogenesis and metastasis. It is also very important to understand the mechanisms that allow the survival of CSCs, such as metabolic reprogramming, which permits them to obtain specific properties or the activation of alternative signaling pathways in response to first-line therapies. In this review, we discuss the failure…

Background The use of stem cells, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), for regenerative medicine is gaining interest for the clinical benefits so far obtained in patients. This study investigates the use of adipose autologous tissue in combination with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve the clinical outcome of patients affected by systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) and PRPs were purified from healthy donors and SSc patients. The multilineage differentiation potential of AD-MSCs and their genotypic–phenotypic features were investigated. A cytokine production profile was evaluated on AD-MSCs and PRPs from both healthy subjects and SSc pat…

Erratum: By promoting cell differentiation, miR-100 sensitizes basal-like breast cancer stem cells to hormonal therapy
2019
Basal-like breast cancer is an aggressive tumor subtype with a poor response to conventional therapies. Tumor formation and relapse are sustained by a cell subset of Breast Cancer Stem Cells (BrCSCs). Here we show that miR-100 inhibits maintenance and expansion of BrCSCs in basal-like cancer through Polo-like kinase1 (Plk1) down-regulation. Moreover, miR-100 favors BrCSC differentiation, converting a basal like phenotype into luminal. It induces the expression of a functional estrogen receptor (ER) and renders basal-like BrCSCs responsive to hormonal therapy. The key role played by miR-100 in breast cancer free-survival is confirmed by the analysis of a cohort of patients' tumors, which sho…
