The enlarged distinct bulky-ball-like nucleolus matrix assembly is observed in most cancer stem cells (CSCs); however, the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. We show that matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) shedding MUC-1 SEA domain releases MUC-1 C-ter, facilitating the nucleolus trafficking of p53 in gefitinib-resistant lung CSCs. The nucleolus colocalizations of p53, MUC-1 C-ter, MMP-7 and nucleolin were observed in the CD34+ CXADR+ CD44v3+ gefitinib-resistant EGFRL858R/T790M CSC colonies. MUC-1 C-ter induced a u
