CD44-high neural crest stem-like cells are associated with tumour aggressiveness and poor survival in neuroblastoma tumours
1 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neuroblastoma is a paediatric tumour originated from sympathoadrenal precursors and characterized by its heterogeneity and poor outcome in advanced stages. Intra-tumoral cellular heterogeneity has emerged as an important feature in neuroblastoma, with a potential major impact on tumour aggressiveness and response to therapy. CD44 is an adhesion protein involved in tumour progression, metastasis and...
