Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Targeting cancer stem cells (CSCs) is emerging as a promising method for cancer treatment. We previously indicated that knockdown of Neuropilin 1(NRP-1) could inhibit breast cancer cell proliferation. Here, we continue exploring the roles and mechanisms of VEGF-A/NRP-1 axis in breast CSCs formation. METHODS: qRT-PCR was used to detect the levels of VEGF-A and NRP-1 in breast cancer sphere cells...
