How does a mouse model of a host with no immune system come even close to reprenting the biology of a cancer in a human with an intact albeit weakened immune system?

You can postulate all manner of theory with different mouse models but in my humble opinion all this does is create debate over the correct model of disease. A very old and familiar problem amongst researchers.

In aggregate the research that exists in support of the CSC hypothesis far outweighs the skeptical view and must not be ignored.
