The series Advances in Stem Cell Biology is a timely and expansive collection of comprehensive information and new discoveries in the field of stem cell biology. Cancer Stem Cells, Volume 6 address how important are cancer stem cells within the cancer development, and how can we target those cells to try to stop this disease.

Cancer cells depend on cancer stem cells to appear, reactivate and grow. As each cancer is a different disease, this book will discuss the role of cancer stem cells in many different cancers. This book will provide an overview of various cancer such as: melanoma, glioblastoma, thyroid carcinoma, colon cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, osteosarcoma and more.

The volume is written for researchers and scientists in stem cell therapy, cell biology, regenerative medicine and organ transplantation; and is contributed by world-renowned authors in the field.
