ABSTRACT
Cancer has been proposed as a result of abnormal control of growth and development of stem cells for more than century. This is the "cancer stem cell hypothesis". Both cancer and stem cells share many common especial properties. They are immortal and have good differentiation potential. In addition, organogenesis and carcinogenesis are very similar processes. Recently, more evidence and convincing data from stem cell biology research are supporting this concept. Furthermore, the research provides new promising approaches for cancer diagnosis and treatment based on stem cell knowledge and technology. Upcoming data and evidence may revolutionize cancer management, making it more effective and safer.
