摘要
近来的研究显示,脑肿瘤中存在少量具有自我更新,增殖和分化潜能的“脑肿瘤干细胞(BTSC)”。尽管它们的数量极低,却是脑肿瘤发生、发展和复发的根源。本文对脑肿瘤干细胞理论研究的进展进行阐述,同时对该项研究的意义和价值进行分析。
Recent research suggest that brain tumors contain a relatively small fraction of cells, termed brain tumor stem cell (BTSC), that have the ability to self-renew, proliferate, and differentiate. Though brain tumor stem cells are low proportion in tumor tissue, they are the key for tumor initiation, development, and recurrent. The advanced research about this hypothesis were reviewed. The value and future of the study were analyzed as well.
