Co-Expression of Putative Cancer Stem Cell Markers, CD133 and Nestin, in Skin Tumors

Comparative Gene-Expression Profiling of CD133 + and CD133 - D10 Melanoma Cells

“…Therefore, identification and characterization of CSCs from cell lines and tumor tissues is a great tool in cancer diagnosis, prevention and therapeutics. In a previous report, we analyzed the expression levels of CD133 in a collection of melanoma samples using immunohistochemical staining [28]. These findings revealed that increased [29,30].…”

Laparoscopic Surgery for Large Ovarian Cysts-Review

“…It plays a critical role in cancer cell migration, invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis both in vitro and in vivo [12][13][14][15]. Nestin confers a poor prognosis in a number of cancers [11,[16][17][18], but had not yet been explored in uterine cancer.…”

Identification of Melanoma Stem Cells in Long-term Cultures and of SOX6 as a Specific Biomarker for these Stem Cells

“…+ and CD24 + [25]. These cells comprise about 5-10% of the tumor population, and yet, execute important functions in maintaining tumor mass.…”
