摘要
肿瘤干细胞是一类未分化的原始肿瘤细胞,具有三大显著的生物学特性即自我更新的能力、无限增殖的能力及多分化潜能性。它是肿瘤不停生长的罪魁祸首。分离、鉴定包括结直肠癌在内的各种肿瘤干细胞以及寻求针对肿瘤干细胞的治疗措施将是肿瘤研究的新方向。
Cancer stem cells （CSC） are a kind of undifferentiated cells with three properties of self-renewal, unlimited proliferation and pluripotency. They are the main cause of the recurrence of the carcinomas. To isolate and identify these CSC,induding the Colorectal Carcinoma Cancer Stem Cell, and search for the strategies targeted at these CSC,will be a new leading orientation for cancer research.
