The Biology of Cancer Stem Cells and Its Clinical Implication in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
30 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly malignant tumor with limited treatment options in its advanced state. The molecular mechanisms underlying HCC remain unclear because of the complexity of its multi-step development process. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are defined as a small population of cells within a tumor that possess the capability for self-renewal and the generation of heterogeneous lineages of cancer...
