Building Bonds: Cancer Stem Cells Depend on Their Progeny to Drive Tumor Progression

Abstract

Little is currently known about how cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) interact with their more restricted progeny. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Wang et al. (2018) demonstrate a novel bidirectional signaling axis between CSCs and their progeny that is mediated by brain-derived neurotrophic factor and VGF accelerating glioma progression.
