Abstract:
Since the discovery of a stem cell phenotype in cancer, specific tumour cells with this phenotype, often called cancer stem cells (CSCs), are now widely accepted as the progenitors of oncogenesis, proliferation, treatment resistance and metastasis. For this reason a lot of research is focused on the characterisation of these cells and their exact roles in the stages of cancer.
