Defects in innate immunity render breast cancer initiating cells permissive to oncolytic adenovirus.

<h4>Background</h4>Cancer stem cells/initiating cells (CSC/CIC), are thought to exist as a small population in malignant tissues. They are resistant to conventional cancer treatments and possibly underlie post-treatment relapse. The CIC population can be targeted with capsid modified onc...
