Abstract EN
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death.
Understanding lung tumors physiopathology should provide opportunity to prevent tumor development or/and improve their therapeutic management.
Cancer stem cell (CSC) theory refers to a subpopulation of cancer cells, also named tumor-initiating cells, that can drive cancer development.
Cells presenting these characteristics have been identified and isolated from lung cancer.
Exploring cell markers and signaling pathways specific to lung CSCs may lead to progress in therapy and improve the prognosis of patients with lung cancer.
Continuous efforts in developing in vitro and in vivo models may yield reliable tools to better understand CSC abilities and to test new therapeutic targets.
Preclinical data on putative CSC targets are emerging by now.
These preliminary studies are critical for the next generation of lung cancer therapies.
