Stem cell-associated heterogeneity in Glioblastoma results from intrinsic tumor plasticity shaped by the microenvironment

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) comprise a putative population that can drive growth and resistance. Here, in glioblastoma models the authors show that rather than being a distinct clonal entity, the CSC population represents a plastic state adoptable by most cancer cells via reversible state transitions i...

Description
Summary:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) comprise a putative population that can drive growth and resistance. Here, in glioblastoma models the authors show that rather than being a distinct clonal entity, the CSC population represents a plastic state adoptable by most cancer cells via reversible state transitions induced by the microenvironment.
