In patient with glioblastoma, a major cause of resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy is the high degree to intratumoral heterogeneity and cell plasticity. Here, the authors demonstrate that chemoradiation induces the reprograming of glioblastoma cells into an invasive and vessel co-opting state, termed VC-Resist, capable of promoting resistance to therapy.
