Research Abstract |
The present study was designed to evaluate the tumor-formation ability of CD133+cells in ovarian Yolk sac tumor(YST) cell lines and to examine characteristics of CD133+cells such as cell growth, and invasiveness. Furthermore, we investigated interactions between peritoneal mesothelial cells and stem cell of YST(SC-YST) based on the hypothesis that peritoneal mesothelial cells have the potential to provide one of the niches for SC-YST. Our data suggest that peritoneal mesothelial cells have the potential to provide one of the niches for NOY1 cells. Interaction of peritoneal mesothelial cell and NOY1-CD133+cells induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in these cells.
