COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR INDUCING DIFFERENTIATION OF STEM CELLS

摘要

Compositions and methods for inducing differentiation of stem cells such as cancer stem cells (CSCs), and increasing sensitivity of CSCs to at least one oxidizing agent in a subject include sulindac and/or epimers thereof. These sulindac-based compositions and methods are particularly useful for treating cancers such as glioblastoma (GBM) and for differentiating stem cells in vitro that can be used for cell replacement therapy in a subject in need thereof.
