Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of cell biology research. More specifically, the present invention relates to the technical field of enrichment and cultivation of human tumor cells and tumor stem cells. Background technique
[0002] Tumor is a heterogeneous tissue. Tumor cells are affected by the complex microenvironment and continuously acquire gene mutations during the proliferation process, resulting in a variety of tumor cells with different phenotypes and different degrees of differentiation in tumor tissue. In recent years, more and more researchers support the hypothesis of cancer stem cells (Cancer Stem Cells, CSC) through the further study of tumors. CSC is a cell with self-renewal and self-replication ability existing in tumor tissue. CSC has strong tolerance to chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy, and can differentiate into tumor cells of different phenotypes, rebuilding the heterogeneity of tumor tissue . In-depth research on CSC...
