The text begins with a discussion of breast cancer, focusing especially on the limitations of current therapies in its treatment. The subsequent chapters introduce and compare stem cells and cancer stem cells, describe properties and isolation techniques of BCSCs, and examine BCSC-targeting approaches. The text concludes with a discussion of controversy surrounding the BCSC hypothesis and of future research directions. Breast Cancer Stem Cells & Therapy Resistance, part of the SpringerBriefs in Stem Cells series, provides a succinct yet comprehensive overview of BCSCs for advanced students, graduate students and researchers as well as those working with breast cancer or stem cells in a clinical setting.SpringerBriefs in Stem Cells,2192-8118 ;0Stem cellsCancer researchStem Cellshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16010Cancer Researchhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001Stem cells.Cancer research.Stem Cells.Cancer Research.616.99449Pham Phuc Vanauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061906MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298269503321Breast Cancer Stem Cells & Therapy Resistance2521360UNINA
