Abstract

Wound healing and the evolution of cancer are closely related to involve progenitor stem cells (PSCs) as the critical common elements. PSCs and cancer stem cells (CSCs) are very much alike on cell features and biological missions. It is very likely that CSCs are originated from PSCs. In the transition TET-1 enzyme is silenced, which marks the critical difference between PSCs and CSCs [1,2]. PSCs are still able to carry out differentiation programs, relying on TET-1 enzyme to achieve DNA hypomethylation required for the cell to undergo terminal differentiation (TD) [3].
