Lethal (2) giant larvae 1 (Lgl1) maintains cell polarity and regulates cell migration. Its dysregulation is linked to gliomas, suggesting a role in tumor development. Glioblastomas may originate from neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) accumulating mutations. Loss of Lgl1 in NPCs leads to cancer-like traits, including increased migration and altered signaling. Scanning electron microscopy can reveal morphological changes. This study compares WT and Lgl1 KO murine brain tissue, aiming to uncover changes associated with Lgl1 loss, offering insights into gliomagenesis.
