Core Tip Cancer stem cells promote tumor-heterogeneity, post-therapeutic relapse and metastatic progression in neuroblastomas, by way of their drug-resistant, self-renewing and reversibly plastic phenotypes, and are, therefore, critical targets to eliminate if improvements in therapeutic outcomes are to be realized. Despite progress in understanding molecular mechanisms that underpin neuroblastomas (NB) cancer stem cell (CSC) selection, promotion and maintenance, efficacious CSC targeting remains difficult. Here we review molecular mechanisms considered to regulate NB CSCs, married with therapeutic strategies and future prospects for their eradication, highlighting the need for better understanding and targeting of polyploid giant cancer cell states, future prospects for CAR cell immunotherapies, the need to identify additional functional cell surface NB CSC-specific targets and to develop better models for NB CSC experimental therapeutics.
