Abstract

The cellular origins of angiomyolipoma and other tuberous sclerosis complex-associated neoplasms are unknown. Now, two studies show that these neoplasms derive from cancer stem cells that originate from multipotent renal epithelial cells. The new findings provide a link between stemness and tumorigenesis in the kidney.
