Cancer stem cell plasticity and tumor hierarchy.
The origins of the complex process of intratumoral heterogeneity have been highly debated and different cellular mechanisms have been hypothesized to account for the diversity within a tumor. The clonal evolution and cancer stem cell (CSC) models have been proposed as drivers of this heterogeneity. However, the concept of cancer stem cell plasticity and bidirectional conversion between stem and...
متن کاملCancer Stem Cell Hierarchy in Glioblastoma Multiforme
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), an aggressive tumor that typically exhibits treatment failure with high mortality rates, is associated with the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) within the tumor. CSCs possess the ability for perpetual self-renewal and proliferation, producing downstream progenitor cells that drive tumor growth. Studies of many cancer types have identified CSCs using specific ...
متن کاملcancer stem cell markers
cancer stem cells (csc) are the tumor-associated cells existed within tumors or hematological cancers which share characteristics similar to normal stem cells. the common characteristics of a normal stem cell and a csc are their differentiation capacity and self-renewal in tumors. the expression pattern of csc markers differs depending on the type and location of cancers. cd molecules are proba...
متن کاملCancer Stem Cell Markers CD44, CD133 in Primary Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are unique subpopulations that have the capacity to drive malignant progression with renewal abilities. Recently the role of some of CSCs in gastric adenocarcinoma has been studied. This study was performed in order to evaluate CD44 and CD133 expressions by immunohistochemistry in 95 primary gastric adenocarcinoma and their relation to clinical and pathological paramete...
متن کاملOverexpression of cancer stem cell marker Lgr5 in colorectal cancer patients and association with pathologic findings
Background: To determine the expression of cancer stem cell marker Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (Lgr5) in colorectal carcinoma samples compared to normal adjacent tissue and any possible association with clinicopathological findings. Methods: This study was performed on forty samples of cancerous colorectal tissues (case group) and their adjacent normal mucosa (c...
