Stem Cells and Metastatic Cancer: Fatal Attraction?
N eural stem cells (NSCs) are generally defi ned by their dual capacity to self-renew and differentiate into more specialized cell types such as neurons and glia. NSCs have been the object of many studies aimed at neuron replacement therapy in several degenerative conditions of the central nervous system such as Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral s...

This study evaluated the clincopathological features and survival of non-metastatic TNBC women in the capital of Iran compared with other areas of the world.

متن کاملPiebaldism and Vitiligo in Two Brothers
Piebaldism is an autosomal dominant uncommon (<1 in 20,000) congenital pigmentary disorder. Depigmented patches are present since birth. They usually remain unchanged throughout life. Vitiligo is its closest differential diagnosis. We report a unique family in which these two dissimilar depigmentations, i.e. piebaldism and vitiligo (with nevus depigmentosus), were noted in two brothers. T...
متن کاملSmall-sized colorectal cancer cells harbor metastatic tumor-initiating cells
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is heterogeneous and contains different-sized cells. Recent studies have shown that tumor-initiating cells (TICs) are involved in cancer initiation, recurrence and metastasis. However, connections between cancer cell size and stem-like properties are largely unknown. Here we purified large- and small-sized CRC cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) based on ...
متن کاملAn unusual metastatic breast cancer presentation Report of a case
ABSTRACTWe are reporting a 43-year-old female breast cancer case with a solitary metastatic adenocarcinoma in clivus.
