| Core Tip |
Despite the remarkable progress that has been made in understanding the cellular and molecular biology of gliomas, current therapeutic strategies have not yet provided a significant benefit to patients or a cure. This review highlights the key functions of SOX transcriptional factors (TFs) in glioblastoma (GBM) and glioma stem cells (GSCs). SOX TFs influence stemness, self-renewal, proliferation, differentiation, viability, migration, invasion, apoptosis, therapy resistance, sphere-forming capacity and tumorigenicity. We emphasized that fine-tuning of the SOX expression level is required to control the balance between the stemness and differentiation of GSCs, making SOX TFs promising therapeutic targets for combatting GBM. |
