  • Publication number: 20210214691
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of oncology, and more particularly of cancer stem cells. It relates to a method for producing cancer stem cells based on overexpression of ?133p53? isoform, ?133p53? isoform, or both ?133p53? and ?133p53? isoforms; a method for predicting the risk that treatment with a chemotherapeutic anti-cancer agent induces cancer stem cells in a subject suffering from cancer from a cancer sample of said subject, based on detection of an increase in ?133p53? isoform, ?133p53? isoform, or both ?133p53? and ?133p53? isoforms following chemotherapeutic anti-cancer treatment; to therapeutic uses of a combination of chemotherapeutic anti-cancer agent and an agent reducing ?133p53? isoform, ?133p53? isoform, or both ?133p53? and ?133p53? isoforms expression; and also to screening methods for anti-cancer stem cells agents.

  • Patent number: 10920198
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of oncology, and more particularly of cancer stem cells. It relates to a method for producing cancer stem cells based on overexpression of ?133?536 isoform, ?133?53? isoform, or both ?133?536 and ?133?53? isoforms; a method for predicting the risk that treatment with a chemotherapeutic anti-cancer agent induces cancer stem cells in a subject suffering from cancer from a cancer sample of said subject, based on detection of an increase in ?133?536 isoform, ?133?53? isoform, or both ?133?536 and ?133?53? isoforms following chemotherapeutic anti-cancer treatment; to therapeutic uses of a combination of chemotherapeutic anti-cancer agent and an agent reducing ?133p536 isoform, ?133?53? isoform, or both ?133?536 and ?133?53? isoforms expression; and also to screening methods for anti-cancer stem cells agents.
