Research Abstract |
Stem cells in normal tissues and cancer-initiating cells (CICs) are known to be enriched in Side Population (SP) cells. However, the factors responsible for the regulation of expression of ABCG2, involved in efflux of dyes, in SP cells have not been fully investigated. Here, we characterized the SP cells within diffuse-type gastric carcinoma, and examined the effects of TGF-beta on SP cells.
