This project aims to understand the mechanisms of neural stem cell behavior and their cancer stem cell counterparts. It focuses on identifying molecular signatures that differentiate these cells to develop more effective cancer therapies.
Not all cancer cells are born equal.
It could be demonstrated that tumors are formed by different cell types, mostly exhibiting a limited potential of proliferation.
Further, it was shown that malignant tumor behaviour is fuelled by a minority of key-players harbouring the ability to form new tumors after transplantation.
Such tumor founding cells share multiple characteristics with stem cells, and thus, are often called “cancer stem cells (CSC)”.
With this regards, most anticancer treatments fa…
