[PDF][PDF] CD24+ liver tumor-initiating cells drive self-renewal and tumor initiation through STAT3-mediated NANOG regulation

TKW Lee, A Castilho, VCH Cheung, KH Tang, S Ma… - Cell stem cell, 2011 - cell.com
Tumor-initiating cells (T-ICs) are a subpopulation of chemoresistant tumor cells that have
been shown to cause tumor recurrence upon chemotherapy. Identification of T-ICs and their …

Aldehyde dehydrogenase discriminates the CD133 liver cancer stem cell populations

S Ma, KW Chan, TKW Lee, KH Tang, JYH Wo… - Molecular Cancer …, 2008 - AACR
Recent efforts in our study of cancer stem cells (CSC) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have
led to the identification of CD133 as a prominent HCC CSC marker. Findings were based …

[PDF][PDF] miR-130b promotes CD133+ liver tumor-initiating cell growth and self-renewal via tumor protein 53-induced nuclear protein 1

S Ma, KH Tang, YP Chan, TK Lee, PS Kwan, A Castilho… - Cell stem cell, 2010 - cell.com
A novel paradigm in tumor biology suggests that cancer growth is driven by stem-like cells
within a tumor, called tumor-initiating cells (TICs) or cancer stem cells (CSCs). Here we …

PD-L1 engagement on T cells promotes self-tolerance and suppression of neighboring macrophages and effector T cells in cancer

…, M Kim, MS Farooq, S Nguy, C Fedele, KH Tang… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) ligation delimits immunogenic responses in T cells.
However, the consequences of programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) ligation in T cells …

[PDF][PDF] CD133+ liver tumor‐initiating cells promote tumor angiogenesis, growth, and self‐renewal through neurotensin/interleukin‐8/CXCL1 signaling

KH Tang, S Ma, TK Lee, YP Chan, PS Kwan… - …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
A novel theory in the field of tumor biology postulates that cancer growth is driven by a
population of stem‐like cells, called tumor‐initiating cells (TICs). We previously identified a TIC …

SHP2 inhibition diminishes KRASG12C cycling and promotes tumor microenvironment remodeling

…, T Hattori, A Koide, Y Wang, KH Tang… - Journal of Experimental …, 2020 - rupress.org
KRAS is the most frequently mutated human oncogene, and KRAS inhibition has been a
longtime goal. Recently, inhibitors were developed that bind KRAS G12C -GDP and react with …

SHP2 inhibition prevents adaptive resistance to MEK inhibitors in multiple cancer models

…, U Ozerdem, DM Simeone, G Miller, BG Neel, KH Tang - Cancer discovery, 2018 - AACR
Adaptive resistance to MEK inhibitors (MEKi) typically occurs via induction of genes for different
receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) and/or their ligands, even in tumors of the same histotype…

[PDF][PDF] Blockade of CD47‐mediated cathepsin S/protease‐activated receptor 2 signaling provides a therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma

…, VCH Cheung, P Lu, EYT Lau, S Ma, KH Tang… - …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Identification of therapeutic targets against tumor‐initiating cells (TICs) is a priority in the
development of new therapeutic paradigms against cancer. We enriched a TIC population …

A CD90+ Tumor-Initiating Cell Population with an Aggressive Signature and Metastatic Capacity in Esophageal Cancer

KH Tang, YD Dai, M Tong, YP Chan, PS Kwan, L Fu… - Cancer research, 2013 - AACR
Tumor-initiating cells (TIC), also known as cancer stem cells, are regarded widely as a specific
subpopulation of cells needed for cancer initiation and progression. TICs have yet to be …
