Coevolution of neoplastic and non-neoplastic reactive astrocyte states converges on mesenchymal-like and injury-response programs during murine glioblastoma progression and post-radiotherapy recurrence

David Lindgren, Rebecca Rosberg, Karolina I. Smoląg…·Alexander Pietras

The paper maps transcriptional changes in astrocyte and tumor cell states during glioblastoma progression and recurrence, identifying reactive astrocyte-like tumor cells associated with radioresistance.

Pericytes orchestrate a tumor-restraining microenvironment in glioblastoma

Sebastian Braun, Paulina Bolívar, Clara Oudenaarden…·Kristian Pietras

This study identifies pericytes as a key paracrine signaling hub in glioblastoma that restrains tumor progression by modulating the tumor microenvironment and immune response.

Hypoxia-induced Complement Component 3 Promotes Aggressive Tumor Growth in the Glioblastoma Microenvironment

Rebecca Rosberg, Karolina I. Smoląg, Jonas Sjölund…·Alexander Pietras

This study identifies hypoxia-induced complement component 3 (C3) as a driver of aggressive glioblastoma growth by promoting cell proliferation and radio-resistance.
