This project investigates the mitochondrial characteristics of cancer stem cells to understand their resistance to chemotherapy. By comparing these cells with more differentiated tumor cells, the research aims to uncover the physiological differences that contribute to tumor regrowth after treatment.
Although many advances in cancer research have heightened cases of long term survival, tumor re-growth is still a major concern.
One hypothesis of the driving force behind tumor re-growth is the subpopulation of cancer stem cells found in varying types of tumors.
Cancer stem cells have emerged as an important chemotherapeutic target over the past decade, as their ability to evade treatments provides a likely source for tumor re-growth.
Like organs, tumors are composed of a mixture of cells at va…
