Stem cells are unique in their capacity to self-renew and generate differentiated progeny to maintain tissues throughout life. A common molecular program for stem cells has remained elusive. We discuss what the molecular logic of stemness may be. We suggest that it may not be coupled to distinct cellular properties such as self-renewal or multipotency,

ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with an overall survival now surpassing 90% in developed countries. However, treatments are not without adverse effects. In this study, we apply the severe toxicity‐free survival (STFS) framework to determine the prevalence of 21 physician‐defined severe ...
