This review aims to summarize the current understanding of ovarian cancer stem cells (OCSCs) and their role in tumor progression and therapy resistance.
Systematic summary of identification and functional characterization of OCSCs
Discussion on mechanisms driving ovarian cancer progression
Review of therapeutic strategies targeting OCSCs and clinical challenges
OCSCs exhibit characteristics such as self-renewal and tumor-initiating capacity, contributing to cancer relapse.
Dysregulated signaling networks and interactions with the tumor microenvironment are key to OCSC-driven progression.
Emerging therapies targeting OCSCs show promise but face significant clinical translation barriers.
