USP21 promotes self-renewal and tumorigenicity of mesenchymal glioblastoma stem cells by deubiquitinating and stabilizing FOXD1

Abstract Recent studies suggest that Forkhead box D1 (FOXD1) plays an indispensable role in maintaining the mesenchymal (MES) properties of glioblastoma (GBM) stem cells (GSCs). Thus, understanding the mechanisms that control FOXD1 protein expression is critical for guiding GBM treatment, particular...
