New study sheds light on cancer stem cell regulation

Researchers at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute have discovered a precise stem cell signaling process that can lead to intestinal tumors if disrupted. The findings add to our understanding of how stem cells give rise to tumors and identify specific stem cell molecules that may be targeted to prevent the onset, progression, and recurrence of intestinal cancers.
