Cancer (stem) cell differentiation: An inherent or acquired property?

Medical hypotheses - 1 Dec 2015

Mohr Marieke, Zänker Kurt S, Dittmar Thomas

Abstract excerpt

There is a growing list of data indicating that cancer (stem) cells could functionally adapt foreign tissue features, such as endothelial-like cells or neuroendocrine cells, express lineage markers or could differentiate into various lineages in response to appropriate differentiation criteria. The finding that cancer (stem) cells may possess some kind of differentiation capacity poses the question whether this...
