ALDH1A3 and glioblastoma: Our main findings are (i) human GSCs express uniformly ALDH1A3 but not the ALDH1A1 isoform whereas non-stem glioma cells comparably express both isoforms; (ii) there is an abundance of ALDH1A3 peptides that prevail over the full-length form in glioblastoma stem cells but not in non-stem glioma cells; (iii) full-length ALDH1A3 and ALDH1A3 peptides are spatially segregated within the cell; and (vi) the abundance of full-length ALDH1A3 and ALDH1A3 peptides is sensitive to MG132-mediated proteasomal inhibition.
