Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly lethal brain cancer in which the calcitonin receptor (CT Receptor), encoded by the CALCR gene, is expressed in 78–88% of patient biopsies. Here, we investigate whether the CT Receptor plays a role in cancer cell survival. In cancer cell lines, knock...
