چکیده

Cancer has been proposed as a result of abnormal control of growth and development of stem cells for more than century. This is the "cancer stem cell hypothesis". Both cancer and stem cells share many common especial properties. They are immortal and have good differentiation potential. In addition, organogenesis and carcinogenesis are very similar processes. Recently, more evidence and convincing data from stem cell biology research are supporting this concept. Furthermore, the research provides new promising approaches for cancer diagnosis and treatment based on stem cell knowledge and technology. Upcoming data and evidence may revolutionize cancer management, making it more effective and safer.

Supernatant Metabolites from Halophilic Archaea to Reduce Tumorigenesis in Prostate Cancer In-vitro and In-vivo

Halophilic archaea are known as the novel producers of natural products and their supernatant metabolites could have cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. In the present study, we screened the anticancer potential of supernatant metabolites from eight native haloarchaeal strains obtained from a culture collection in Iran. Five human cancer cell lines including breast, lung, prostate and also human...
