Description:
Article Cancer stem cells are a sub-population of tumour cells but how they interact with the tumour microenvironment is unclear. Here, Chen et al. culture lung cancer stem cells with cancer-associated fibroblasts and delineate a signalling pathway between the two cells that helps maintain the cancer stem cell state.
