Abstract
The pluripotency factor Nanog is highly expressed in pluripotent stem cells and certain adult stem cells, but is not expressed in normal adult cells. However, Nanog is frequently overexpressed in human cancers. Here, we discuss the distinct oncogenic roles of Nanog at various stages of tumorigenesis.
