| Research Abstract |
Cancer stem cells can be the source of all the malignant cells in a primary tumor, they can compose the small reservoir of drug-resistant cells that are responsible for relapse after a chemotherapy induced remission. In this study, we isolated oral cancer stem cell-like cells and the gene expression profile of oral cancer stem cell-like cells was examined. Our results demonstrate that the expression of keratin 34 could be a useful marker for pathologic diagnosis in terms of predicting malignant change and be a one of the makers for OSCC cancer stem cell.
