Abstract excerpt
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is believed to originate from intestinal cells of Cajal or their stem cell precursors, and expresses stemness-related markers, such as CD117, CD34, DOG1 and nestin. To further characterize phenotypic features of GISTs, we examined expression profiles of a panel of stemness genes in GISTs, by analyzing existing gene expression profiling datasets. Our results showed that mRNA...
