Side population in hepatocellular carcinoma HCCLM3 cells is enriched with stem-like cancer cells

Abstract excerpt

Substantial evidence implicates that low‑abundance cancer stem cells (CSCs) are responsible for tumor metastasis and recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Side population (SP) cells possess typical CSCs-like features, and are frequently considered as a special subpopulation in which CSCs are enriched and in studies may be considered as a substitute for CSCs. The aim of the present study was to examine the...
