Biological heterogeneity of putative bladder cancer stem‐like cell populations from human bladder transitional cell carcinoma samples
27 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is the most common type of bladder cancer. Emerging evidence has suggested that the capability of a tumor to grow and propagate is dependent on a small subset of cells, the cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) or tumor initiating cells. We report on the isolation and biological characterization of putative bladder CSC populations from primary TCCs. Isolated cells were induced to...
