Induction of cancer stem-like cells in A549 cells after exposure to carbon ions and X-rays
Background: Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) play a crucial role in the initiation, progression, and recurrence of cancer. Evidence indicates that the high linear energy transfer (LET) carbon ion beam is more effective against CSCs than the conventional X-ray beam. Carbon ion radiotherapy is considered as a promising cancer strategy, however, information about whether, or not, new CSCs are induced...
متن کاملGene Expression Profile of Adherent Cells Derived From Human Peripheral Blood: Evidence of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide a novel option in cellular therapy and tissue engineering. Recent studies indicated that it is possible to obtain MSCs from peripheral blood by attachment ability to plastic surface. To evaluate adherent cells derived from peripheral blood, their expression profile and surface markers were investigated. The results of RT-PCR indicated that these cells expre...
متن کاملCancer stem cells: therapeutic targets
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been identified as rare cellular populations in many cancers, including leukemia and solid tumors. This minor subpopulation of cancerous cells is immortal tumor-initiating cells which thought to be responsible for cancer initiation, progression, metastasis, recurrence and drug/radiation resistance. Low proliferative rate, high self-renewing capacity, differentiatio...
متن کاملMolecular characteristics of cancer stem-like cells derived from human breast cancer cells.
We characterized the cellular properties of cancer stem-like cells (CSLCs) isolated from immortalized MDA-MB453 human breast cancer cells in culture. We showed that although the expression of Octamer-binding transcription factor-4 (OCT4) correlates to stemness in these CSLCs, OCT4 knockdown does not induce their differentiation. Our results suggest that the differentiation program in MDA-MB453 ...
متن کاملMicroRNA expression profile of gastric cancer stem cells in the MKN-45 cancer cell line.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in post-transcriptional gene silencing of target messenger RNAs, which are involved in virtually all biological processes. Previously, we have demonstrated that spheroid body-forming cells from the MKN-45 cancer cell line possessed gastric cancer stem cell (CSC) properties. In this study, we aimed to determine the miRNA profile of the gastric CSCs and to ...
