Research Abstract |
Primary cultured cells derived from normal human endometrium contained ALDH1-high population. There was no difference of expression of HER2 between ALDH-high cells and. low cells. ALDH1 activity was enhanced in endometrial cancer stem cells compared with that in non-stem cells. Introduction of dbpC to endometrial cancer cells enhanced subpopulations of stem cells as well as the level of ALDH1 ecpression. These results demonstrated that ALDH1 was a candidate for marker of endometrial cancer stem cells.
