Abstract Pediatric and adult high-grade gliomas are the most common primary malignant brain tumors, with poor prognosis due to recurrence and tumor infiltration after therapy. Quiescent cells have been implicated in tumor recurrence and treatment resistance, but their direct visualization and targeting remain challenging, precluding their mechanistic study. Here, we identify a population of malignant cells expressing Prominin-1 in a non-proliferating state in pediatric high-grade glioma patients. ...

Abstract BACKGROUND High-grade gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors, with poor prognosis due to recurrence and tumor infiltration after surgical removal and chemotherapy. Quiescent/slow cycling stem cells have been proposed to be one of the main players of tumor relapse but their involvement in in the infiltration remain unclear. Despite they have been described in mouse models or after transcriptional profiling of human tumor samples, their direct visualization, targeting and ablation ...
