REGENERATIVE MEDICINE AND TARGETED THERAPY FOR CANCER STEM CELLS |

| Program Description |
In spite of advances in cancer treatment, a subpopulation of tumor cells known as cancer stem cells (CSCs) may renew themselves to resist treatment and drive the metastasis of cancer. We use CSCs as a research model to investigate three primary research topics, including 1) mitochondrial bioenergetics, 2) transcription factor small-molecule drugs, and 3) exosome-based medication. For the study of regenerative medicine, induced pluripotent stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells are used for exosome-based drugs, tissue repair, and cancer treatments. |
