CXCL12 mediates trophic interactions between endothelial and tumor cells in glioblastoma.

CXCL12 mediates trophic interactions between endothelial and tumor cells in glioblastoma.

Emerging evidence suggests endothelial cells (EC) play a critical role in promoting Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cell proliferation and resistance to therapy. The molecular basis for GBM-EC interactions is incompletely understood. We hypothesized that the chemokine CXCL12 and its receptor CXCR4 cou...
