RNA sequencing of long-term label-retaining colon cancer stem cells identifies novel regulators of quiescence

Summary: Recent data suggest that therapy-resistant quiescent cancer stem cells (qCSCs) are the source of relapse in colon cancer. Here, using colon cancer patient-derived organoids and xenografts, we identify rare long-term label-retaining qCSCs that can re-enter the cell cycle to generate new tumo...
