Cuprous oxide nanoparticle-inhibited melanoma progress by targeting melanoma stem cells
Recent studies have shown that metal and metal oxide have a potential function in antitumor therapy. Our previous studies demonstrated that cuprous oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) not only selectively induce apoptosis of tumor cells in vitro but also inhibit the growth and metastasis of melanoma by targeting mitochondria with little hepatic and renal toxicities in mice. As a further study, our curr...
متن کاملRegression of metastatic melanoma by targeting cancer stem cells
Current therapeutic regimens attempt to eliminate all malignant cells of a melanoma lesion; pre-clinical data, however, indicate that melanoma, once established, is maintained by a minor, non-random subset of cancer cells which are characterized by CD20 expression. We asked to eliminate those cells in a progressing, chemotherapy-refractory metastatic melanoma patient by lesional injections of t...
متن کاملCancer stem cells in melanoma
The identification of cancer stem cells in various malignancies led to the hypothesis that these cells have the exclusive ability of self-renewal, contribute to the plasticity of the tumours and may be the cause for ineffective cancer therapies. Several markers of melanoma stem cells have been described in recent studies including CD133, CD166, Nestin and BMI-1. Further studies are necessary to...

متن کاملMelanoma Cancer Stem Cells: Markers and Functions
The discovery of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in human solid tumors has allowed a better understanding of the biology and neoplastic transformation of normal melanocytes, and the possible mechanisms by which melanoma cells acquire tumorigenicity. In this review I summarize the literature findings on the potential biomarkers of melanoma CSCs, their presence in the melanoma cell populations, the inte...
