Whether CD44 is an applicable marker for glioma stem cells.

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: in glioma cells with GSC traits conversely facilitated differentiation. Our data indicated that the CD44 low-expressing cells exhibit more GSCs straits, suggesting that CD44 is not an appropriate marker for GSCs. Furthermore, the preferential expression of CD44 at the invasive rim in rat glioma specimen implies that CD44 may be more important for invasion and migration instead of GSCs marker in glioma.
