Distinct Roles of HES1 in Normal Stem Cells and Tumor Stem-like Cells of the Intestine.
Cancer stem cells (CSC) have attracted attention as therapeutic targets; however, CSC-targeting therapy may disrupt normal tissue homeostasis because many CSC molecules are also expressed by normal stem cells (NSC). Here, we demonstrate that NSC-specific and CSC-specific roles of the stem cell transcription factor Hes1 in the intestine enable the feasibility of a specific cancer therapy. Hes1 expression was upregulated in NSCs and intestinal tumors. Lineage-tracing experiments in adult mouse intestine revealed that Hes1 deletion in Lgr5 Topics: Animals; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Transformation, Neoplastic; Humans; Intestinal Mucosa; Intestinal Neoplasms; Intestines; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Neoplastic Stem Cells; Transcription Factor HES-1 | 2017 |
