m5C modification of LINC00324 promotes angiogenesis in glioma through CBX3/VEGFR2 pathway.

Angiogenesis plays a major role in tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis. This is why finding antiangiogenic targets is essential in the treatment of gliomas. In this study, NSUN2 and LINC00324 were significantly upregulated in conditionally cultured glioblastoma endothelial cells (GECs).

A novel peptide P1-121aa encoded by STK24P1 regulates vasculogenic mimicry via ELF2 phosphorylation in glioblastoma.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a hematological system composed of tumor cells that exert blood perfusion without relying on vascular endothelial cells. The current poor results of anti-vascular therapy for clinical GBM are associated with the presence of VM; therefore, it is important to investigate VM formation in GBM.
