Abstract excerpt
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH) activity is considered to be a marker of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in many tumour models, since these cells are more proliferative and tumourigenic than ALDH(Lo) cells in experimental models. However it is unclear whether all CSC-like cells are within the ALDH(Hi) population, or whether all ALDH(Hi) cells are highly proliferative and tumourigenic. The ability to establish a stem...
