Understanding and targeting cancer stem cells: therapeutic implications and challenges
20 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been identified as rare cell populations in many cancers, including leukemia and solid tumors. Accumulating evidence has suggested that CSCs are capable of self-renewal and differentiation into various types of cancer cells.
