Cancer stem cells(CSCs) are defined as a kind of undifferentiated cells that can self-renew and differentiate. Like normal stem cells, the CSCs also have multipotency capable of differentiating into different cancer cells with heterogeneity, and are usually resistant to the traditional drug therapies. The differences between CSCs and normal stem cells are the abnormal activation of some signal pathways and the expression of different biomarkers. Targeting the differences, scientists come up with some strate...
