中文简介:
塔玛拉和我一起工作了超过25年。蛋白酶在健康和疾病中的作用是我们共同关心的第一个问题,今天仍然如此。然而,5-10年前,蛋白酶的作用已经缩小到其在原发性脑肿瘤、胶质母细胞瘤中的功能,几年前甚至进一步缩小到癌症干细胞及其在胶质母细胞瘤中的小生境,即胶质瘤干细胞小生境。塔玛拉和我已决定与NIB的乌尔什卡·韦波维奇和芭芭拉·布雷兹尼克以及阿姆斯特丹AMC的瓦申德里亚·希拉一起调查这些壁龛。我们关注这些小生境,因为我们想知道是什么分子使胶质瘤干细胞保持在它们的小生境中,以及是什么分子使这些小生境成为胶质瘤干细胞小生境。除了其他蛋白质外,蛋白酶也参与其中,我们想知道如何参与。这对我们的最终目标很重要:将胶质瘤干细胞赶出它们的壁龛,让它们分化为胶质瘤细胞,然后用抗癌疗法攻击它们。胶质瘤干细胞对治疗具有抵抗力,这些小生境很可能保护了胶质瘤干细胞。所以,芭芭拉、瓦森德里亚和我正在飓风塔马拉后面奔跑,我们潜入小生境,揭开它们的秘密,使胶质瘤干细胞容易受到治疗。
课程简介: Tamara and I work together for more than 25 years. The role of proteases in health and disease was our first joint interest and that is still the case today. However, the role of proteases has been narrowed down to their functions in primary brain tumors, glioblastoma, 5-10 years ago and was even further narrowed down a few years ago to the cancer stem cells and their niches in glioblastoma, the glioma stem cell niches. Tamara and I have decided to investigate these niches together with Urška Verbovšek and Barbara Breznik from the NIB and Vashendriya Hira from the AMC, Amsterdam. We focus on the niches because we want to know what molecules keep the glioma stem cells in their niches and what molecules make these niches glioma stem cell niches. Proteases are involved besides other proteins and we want to know how. This is important for our ultimate goal: chase the glioma stem cells out of their niches to let them differentiate to glioma cells and then attack them with anti-cancer therapies. The glioma stem cells are restistant against therapy and it is likely that the niches protect the glioma stem cells. So, Barbara, Vashendriya and I are running behind hurricane Tamara and we dive into the niches to unravel their secrets and make the glioma stem cells vulnerable to therapy.
