Genetic Signature of Cancer Stem Cells Found

One of the reasons why cancer oftentimes relapses is that treatments do not kill off its stem cells, the ones that promote tumor growth in the first place. In a new study, scientists found the genetic fingerprint of these cells, raising hopes that new treatments will be able to target these c... [ read more >> ]
