Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 2006
Cancer stem cells (CSC) are recently proposed to be the cancer initiating cells responsible for tumorigenesis and contribute to cancer resistance. Advances have been made in identifying and enriching CSC in leukemia and several solid tumors, including breast, brain and lung cancers.

Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science, 2012
The cancer stem cell (CSC) hypothesis has had a major effect on the fields of cancer cell biology and clinical oncology. CSCs were originally described in hematologic malignancies, and subsequently in a variety of solid tumors. Their unique biological characteristics, including self-renewal capability, stem cell signaling pathways, relative quiescence ...

Stem cells, cancer, and cancer stem cells [PDF]

Nature, 2001
Stem cell biology has come of age. Unequivocal proof that stem cells exist in the haematopoietic system has given way to the prospective isolation of several tissue-specific stem and progenitor cells, the initial delineation of their properties and expressed genetic programmes, and the beginnings of their utility in regenerative medicine.

Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

Journal of Oncology, 2011
The concept of cancer stem cells has generated significant interests among cancer researchers. This has led to proliferative number of publications on the subject in the recent years and eventually controversies because of conflicting data in the literature.

Stemness, cancer, and cancer stem cells [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2008
The ability of cancers to grow indefinitely has fueled the idea that cancer and stem cells may have common underlying mechanisms. Detailed gene expression maps have now shown the diversity and distinctiveness in gene expression programs associated with stemness in embryonic and adult stem cells. These maps have further revealed a shared transcriptional

Colorectal Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 2009
The cancer stem cell hypothesis predicts that only a subpopulation of cells within a tumor is responsible for driving growth. If this hypothesis were true, it would have a significant impact on our current treatment of cancer because conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy target rapidly proliferating cells making up the bulk of the tumor, not ...

Cells, Stem Cells, and Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2013
The stem cell field owes a great deal to the previous work conducted by embryologists and researchers devoted to reproductive medicine. The time is coming when this emerging field will pay off in the reproductive sciences by offering new avenues of understanding gametogenesis and early embryonic development.

Stemness in Cancer: Stem Cells, Cancer Stem Cells, and Their Microenvironment [PDF]

Stem Cells International, 2017
Stemness combines the ability of a cell to perpetuate its lineage, to give rise to differentiated cells, and to interact with its environment to maintain a balance between quiescence, proliferation, and regeneration. While adult Stem Cells display these properties when participating in tissue homeostasis, Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) behave as their ...

Cholesterol content in cell membrane maintains surface levels of ErbB2 and confers a therapeutic vulnerability in ErbB2-positive breast cancer

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2019
Background ErbB2 overexpression identifies a subset of breast cancer as ErbB2-positive and is frequently associated with poor clinical outcomes. As a membrane-embedded receptor tyrosine kinase, cell surface levels of ErbB2 are regulated dynamically by ...

WNT signaling regulates self-renewal and differentiation of prostate cancer cells with stem cell characteristics [PDF]

, 2009
Prostate cancer cells with stem cell characteristics were identified in human prostate cancer cell lines by their ability to form from single cells self-renewing prostaspheres in non-adherent cultures.
