[fr] After validation of ACKR3 staining by using U87-ACKR3 cell line, we showed that ACKR3 expression was very low in patients GBM stem-like cells. However we detect the receptor on GBM patient tissue, where it appears distributed in various cell subtypes. Both public transcriptomic datasets of GBM and results that we have obtained have revealed that ACKR3 is expressed in tumor cells in situ, but also in cells from the surrounding tumor microenvironment. Morever, ACKR3 expression pattern varies in different regions of a tumor, and between different patients. The role of ACKR3 in GBM growth might be more subtle than expected, and likely involves malignant GBM cells as well as their microenvironment. The role of CXCR4 together with ACKR3 also deserves deep investigation.
