Tumor and Stem Cell Biology Hedgehog and Notch Signaling Regulate Self-Renewal of Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcomas
Like many solid tumors, sarcomas are heterogeneous and include a small fraction of the so-called side population (SP) cells with stem-like tumor-initiating potential. Here, we report that SP cells from a soft tissue tumor of enigmatic origin termed undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (also known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma or MFH sarcoma) display activation of both the Hedgehog and Notch...

متن کاملHedgehog signaling and Bmi-1 regulate self-renewal of normal and malignant human mammary stem cells.
The epithelial components of the mammary gland are thought to arise from stem cells with a capacity for self-renewal and multilineage differentiation. Furthermore, these cells and/or their immediate progeny may be targets for transformation. We have used both in vitro cultivation and a xenograft mouse model to examine the role of hedgehog signaling and Bmi-1 in regulating self-renewal of normal...
متن کاملHead and Neck Tumors: Management of Primary Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma
Introduction: Sarcomas account for 1% of all tumors originated in the head and neck regions in adults. They constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors of mesenchymal origin with multiple histological variants. The undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) subtype is the most frequent variant with an incidence range of 2.7-38%. Materials and Methods: This retrospective...
متن کاملNotch signaling in pediatric soft tissue sarcomas
Pediatric soft tissue sarcomas are rare tumors of childhood, frequently characterized by specific chromosome translocations. Despite improvements in treatment, their clinical management is often challenging due to the low responsiveness of metastatic forms and aggressive variants to conventional therapeutic approaches, which leads to poor overall survival. It is widely thought that soft tissue ...
