Cancer Stem Cells: Emerging Concepts and Future Perspectives in Translational Oncology

The concept of cancer stem cells has great clinical implications. This is due to the fact that small subpopulations of these cells have been identified in a variety of neoplastic conditions ranging from solid tumors to liquid malignancies. Although there are some huge gaps in our current understandi...
