## Abstract Aggressive cancer cells and pluripotent stem cells converge in their capacity for selfβrenewal, proliferation and plasticity. Recent studies have capitalized on these similarities by demonstrating that tumors arise from specific cancer stem cell populations that, in a manner reminiscent
