摘　　要：干细胞被认为是一种未分化的细胞,具有永远增殖和自我更新能力。大量研究证明,癌症中存在对化疗更具抵抗性的癌症干细胞。识别癌症干细胞和普通癌症细胞之间的差异,可以发展更有效的癌症分类、诊断和治疗方法。Stem cells are defined as cells able to both extensively self-renew and differentiate into progenitors. Research data show that more resistant stem cells than common cancer cells exist in cancer patients.To identify unrecognized differences between cancer stem cells and cancer cells might be able to develope effective classification,diagnose and treat ment for cancer.
