Glioma stem cells: Evidence and limitation.
Gliomas, in particular the high-grade anaplastic glioma and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), are manifested by morphological, genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Most of the studies hitherto have been performed on bulk glioma cells, with limited understanding on the origin and the relative contribution of particular glioma cell populations to glioma growth and progression. Recent studies have demo
