In children patients who are going to be ovariectomy, follicogenesis is at early stage and thus the follicles need to be mature in...
متن کاملCancer stem cell targeted therapy: progress amid controversies
Although cancer stem cells have been well characterized in numerous malignancies, the fundamental characteristics of this group of cells, however, have been challenged by some recent observations: cancer stem cells may not necessary to be rare within tumors; cancer stem cells and non-cancer stem cells may undergo reversible phenotypic changes; and the cancer stem cells phenotype can vary substa...
متن کاملOvarian Epithelial Cancer Stem Cells
The last decade witnessed an explosion of interest in cancer stem cells (CSCs). The realization of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) as a CSC-related disease has the potential to change approaches in the treatment of this devastating disease dramatically.
