Conférence | Self-organizing principles driving tumor stemness and hierarchy | Carlos Pérez-González (Institut Curie)

Tumor growth relies on the proliferation of cancer stem cells, which constantly produce non-proliferative differentiated cells that eventually die. Despite this hierarchy, treatments targeting cancer stem cells often fail at eradicating the tumor, because the remaining cancer cells dedifferentiate to replenish the stem cell pool. It is thus crucial […]
