“…Presently, it is not clear what the origin of GSCs is, but presumably it may arise from SVZ stem cells. Based on in vivo evidence, GSCs are responsible for tumor growth, recurrence, and resistance to therapies [15,48,59] and endowed with unregulated self-renewal, robust proliferative potential, high motility, diversity of progeny association with blood vessels and white matter tracts, multi-lineage differentiation capacities, invasiveness [22,63], and relatively resistant to radio-and chemotherapies [56,80], which express markers of both undifferentiated and differentiated cells [73], with a similar behavior to neural stem cells (NSCs) [5], which are present during the early development of the brain [7]. Nevertheless, the specific intrinsic factors that govern such characteristics are not well understood [27,66,83].…”
