Unraveling the Mystery of Cancer Stem Cells and Signaling Pathways

Written by renowned author Surajit Pathak, Cancer Stem Cells and Signaling Pathways delves into the intricate mechanisms of cancer stem cell signaling pathways, providing researchers with valuable insights into the complexities of anti-cancer treatments and the interconnectedness of signaling pathways in cancer stem cell regulation.

Despite significant advances in tumor therapy and a deeper understanding of their biology, cancer remains a pervasive and deadly global health issue. According to a novel paradigm in tumor biology, a small subset of cells within a tumor, known as cancer stem cells (CSCs), are believed to play a crucial role in tumor progression.
