Abstract:
The breast cancer stem cells are a subpopulatiom of breast tumor cells that selectively possess tumor initiation and self-renewal capacity. Recent findings suggest that it may correlate with the failure treatment and relapse of breast cancer. The isolation of phenotypically distinct tumorigenic of breast cancers will find a way to elucidation of the pathways that account for their tumorigenic potential to cure the disease.
