In addition to mobilization and recruitment of MSCs towards wounds, TGF-β also mediates homing of bone marrow-derived human MSCs to glioma stem cells (GSCs).227 By using glioma models, Shinojima et al. found that TGF-β attracts BM-hMSCs via TGF-β receptors (TGFβR). This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and central nervous system cancer.
