Abstract

Aggressive features of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are highly related to liver tumor-initiating cells (TICs), which are heterogeneous and plastic. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Yang et al. reveal the ability of CD49f-high TICs in shaping the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment in HCC.
