Malignant tumors are thought to be initiated by a small population of cells that display stem cell properties, including the capacity of self-renewal, multipotent differentiation, initiation of tumor tissues and resistance to therapy. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have also been identified in gliomas in which they are named as glioma stem-like cells (GSLCs), or glioma stem cells. In xenograft transplantation models, GSLCs propagate tumor and promote tumor progression. The tumorigenesis of GSLCs depends not only on their autonomous proliferation but also on interaction with microenvironment components. Among these components, G protein coupled chemoattractant receptors (GPCRs) and their agonists have attracted much attention for their capacity to mediate leukocyte infiltration, angiogenesis, tumor invasion and metastasis. Chemoattractant GPCRs are widely expressed by tumor cells and stromal cells and recognize agonists present in the tumor microenvironment. Such GPCRs have been found to be expressed also by CSCs including GSLCs. In this brief review, we will summarize the recent development in the studies of the function, regulation and signal transduction of chemoattractant GPCRs in GSLCs in hope to promote a better understanding of the mechanistic basis of the progression of gliomas and the identification of molecular targets for the novel anti-glioma therapy.
