Developmental biology, regenerative medicine and cancer biology are increasingly occupied with the molecular characterization of stem cells. Yet recent work adds to a growing body of literature suggesting that 'stemness' cannot be reduced to the molecular features of cell types, and is instead an emergent property of cell lineages under feedback control.
发育生物学、再生医学和癌症生物学越来越关注干细胞的分子特征。然而,最近的研究增加了越来越多的文献表明,“干性”不能简化为细胞类型的分子特征,而是反馈控制下细胞谱系的一种涌现特性。
