## Abstract While many solid tumors have been reported to contain stem cellβlike cells termed cancer stem cells, the case for a melanoma stem cell has been debated over the last few years. Herein, we summarize current knowledge of melanomaβinitiating cells and provide an update on recently gained k

## Abstract Over 70% of patients with advanced breast cancer will develop bone metastases for which there is no cure. Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) and their derivative osteoblasts are subpopulations of cells within the bone marrow environment, postulated as potential interacting targets for dissem
Gain of sequences on chromosome arm 8q is a common feature of prostate cancer that may correlate with metastatic and androgen-independent progression. The target gene(s) for this gain is not known, although MYC is amplified in a subset of advanced tumors and is one potential candidate. Prostate stem

## Abstract Highβgrade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) appears to represent an ideal target for chemoprevention of prostate cancer (PCa). HGPIN responds to androgen ablation and has prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) mRNA expression. One hundred and seventy two patients with isolated HGP
