Research Abstract

Recent data suggest that a rare subpopulation of cancer cells, termed cancer stem cells (CSCs), is capable of initiating, maintaining, and expanding the growth of tumor. Furthermore, these CSCs are considered a major cause of tumor recurrence after conventional therapy due to their resistance against chemo- and radio-therapeutic modalities. Thus, CSCs represent a critical therapeutic target. Recently, a number of studies have demonstrated that hypoxic tumour microenvironment controls tumour stem cells. In this study, we investigated the induction of dedifferentiation by hypoxic condition in OSCC cell lines.
