Abstract

The notion that aberrant cell differentiation is a consistent and important characteristic of malignant cells has been a popular theme in cancer research for many years. Theories concerning phenomena such as dedifferentiation, misprogramming of differentiated lineages, and inappropriate or ectopic expression of genes associated with embryonic development have often been linked to the progression of malignancy (1,2).
