Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are known to be one of the factors that make cancer treatment difficult. Many researchers are thus conducting research to efficiently destroy CSCs. Therefore, we sought to suggest a new target that can efficiently suppress CSCs. In this study, we observed a high expression of Ran-binding protein 1 (RanBP1) in lung cancer stem cells (LCSCs) and glioma stem cells (GSCs). Upregulated RanBP1 expression is strongly associated with the expression of CSC marker proteins and CSC regulators. In addition, an elevated RanBP1 expression is strongly associated with a poor patient prognosis. CSCs have the ability to resist radiation, and RanBP1 regulates this ability. RanBP1 also affects the metastasis-associated epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenomenon. EMT marker proteins and regulatory proteins are affected by RanBP1 expression, and cell motility was regulated according to RanBP1 expression. The cancer microenvironment influences cancer growth, metastasis, and cancer treatment. RanBP1 can modulate the cancer microenvironment by regulating the cytokine IL-18. Secreted IL-18 acts on cancer cells and promotes cancer malignancy. Our results reveal, for the first time, that RanBP1 is an important regulator in LCSCs and GSCs, suggesting that it holds potential for use as a potential therapeutic target. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
