Cancer Stem Cells
No Customer Reviews
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a small subset of cells within tumors that possess the unique ability to self-renew and differentiate into various cell types found in the specific cancer. Unlike other cancer cells, CSCs are believed to be responsible for initiating and driving tumor growth, metastasis, and resistance to conventional treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation. Their characteristics, including plasticity and resistance mechanisms, make them a challenging target for cancer therapies. Understanding the biology of cancer stem cells is crucial for developing more effective and targeted treatments to combat cancer at its root, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
