There are few tumor cell subpopulations with stem cell characteristics in tumor tis-sue,defined as cancer stem cells(CSCs)or cancer stem-like cells(CSLCs),which can recon-struct neoplasms with malignant biological behaviors such as invasiveness via self-renewal and unlimited generation.The microenvironment that CSCs depend on consists of various cellular components and corresponding medium components.Among these factors existing at a variety of levels and forms,cytokine networks and numerous signal pathways play an important role in signaling transduction.These factors promote or maintain cancer cell stem-ness,and participate in cancer recurrence,metastasis,and resistance.This review aims to summarize the recent molecular data concerning the multilayered relationship between CSCs and CSC-favorable microenvironments.We also discuss the therapeutic implications of target-ing this synergistic interplay,hoping to give an insight into targeting cancer cell stemness for tumor therapy and prognosis.
