Glioma Stem Cell-Targeted Dendritic Cells as a Tumor Vaccine Against Malignant Glioma
PURPOSE Cancer stem cells have recently been thought to be closely related to tumor development and reoccurrence. It may be a promising way to cure malignant glioma by using glioma stem cell-targeted dendritic cells as a tumor vaccine. In this study, we explored whether pulsing dendritic cells with antigens of glioma stem cells was a potent way to induce specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes and ant...
متن کاملAre Stem Cells the next Therapeutic Tool for Heart Repair?
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States and Europe. In recent years, the understanding that regenerative processes exist at the level of the myocardium, has placed stem cell research at center stage in cardiology. A stem cell is a cell that has the ability to divide (self replicate) for indefinite periods often throughout the life of the ...
متن کاملA Forecast of Targeting Leukemia Stem Cells by Nanomedicine
Leukemia Stem Cells (LSCs) are a subpopulation of leukemic cells that display characteristics of self-renewal, differentiation and tumor-initiating capacity. They are also thought to be responsible for Chemoradiotherapy resistance and the recurrence of leukemia. Recently, Nanomedicine has been widely used for cancer treatments with improved targeting efficiency and reduced side effects. In this...
متن کاملGlioma Stem Cells: A Midterm Exam
Several years ago, the discovery of a highly tumorigenic subpopulation of stem-like cells embedded within fresh surgical isolates of malignant gliomas lent support to a new paradigm in cancer biology--the cancer stem cell hypothesis. At the same time, these "glioma stem cells" seemed to resolve a long-standing conundrum on the cell of origin for primary cancers of the brain. However, central te...
متن کاملThe Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool: A useful tool for pain assessment in intensive care units
Pain is a major concern in all intensive care units (ICUs). The proper assessment and management of pain is one of the main goals of patient care in ICUs. Improper evaluation of pain and its over or under treatment can cause significant problems in the process of patient management in ICU. Since most ICU patients are unable to communicate correctly with the ICU team and explain their level of p...
