From: Tumour-associated glial host cells display a stem-like phenotype with a distinct gene expression profile and promote growth of GBM xenografts

TAGs form spheres in vitro and promote brain tumour growth in vivo. a TAGs cultured in stem cell medium formed spheres (left panel), whereas normal glial cell sphere formation was barely detectable (middle panel), and significantly lower (right panel). Scale bar: 100 μm b Survival following implantation in mice with the cell suspensions indicated, 50 000 cells of each cell type. Mice were implanted with glioma cells and TAGs from non-angiogenic (left panel) and mature GBM (right panel) phenotypes
