Article Synopsis
- Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain cancer with high recurrence rates due to inadequate responses to traditional treatments and the presence of glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) that contribute to therapeutic resistance.
- GSCs exhibit unique characteristics, such as self-renewal and diverse subpopulations, making them distinct from normal neural stem cells and differentiated tumor cells.
- Understanding the role of mitochondria in GSC metabolism and stress response mechanisms is crucial for developing novel therapies aimed at targeting these resilient cancer cells.
