Aptamer-mediated survivin RNAi enables 5-fluorouracil to eliminate colorectal cancer stem cells
Abstract The development of chemoresistance and inability in elimination of cancer stem cells are among the key limitations of cancer chemotherapy. Novel molecular therapeutic strategies able to overcome such limitations are urgently needed for future effective management of cancer. In this report,...
