| Research Abstract |
For examining the factors which possess anti-cancer stem or anti-cancer stem niche effects, we focused on heat therapy, fatty acids, glycoprotein, and hypoxia. Heat therapy reduces stemness of cancer cells. In contrast, linoleic acid induces quiescent cancer stem cells to produce cancer dormancy ; and elaidic acid (trans form of oleic acid) increases proliferating cancer stem cells to enhance overt metastasis. These properties of heat therapy and fatty acids might provide a new therapeutic target.
