TL;DR: It is shown that freshly purified thyroid cancer cells were completely refractory to CD95-induced apoptosis despite the consistent expression of Fas-associated death domain and caspase-8, and that IL-4 and IL-10 may represent key targets for the treatment of thyroid cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
IL-4-mediated drug resistance in colon cancer stem cells.
TL;DR: The potential use of the CD133 antigen in concert with Musashi-1 as markers to identify the colon cancer stem cell population is discussed.
