BMP2 and neoplasm: The BMP2/7-driven cell state that we described here fits with previous results obtained in other glioma models, in which a subpopulation of quiescent cells was identified as partially responsible for tumor invasiveness (Atkins et al., 2019; Antonica et al., 2022; Furst et al., 2022), a hallmark of pDMG aggressiveness (Kluiver et al., 2020).
