Expression of cancer stem cells markers in urinary bladder urothelial carcinoma and its precursor lesions
Background. Cancer stem cells (CSC) and their role in tumorigenesis of various solid tumors have been studied in past decades. Urothelial CSC were first identified 10 years ago and subsequent studies have been performed with the aim to identify reliable markers of CSC. So far, a few studies have inv...

Conclusions. Our results showed that studied molecules are not suitable for direct detection of CSC in urothelial carcinoma tissue sections, but an expression of molecules CD24 and CD133 is significantly related to urothelial carcinoma grade and stage, which are both important prognostic indicators and therefore an expression of these markers might have a potential prognostic value.Jaromir HacekAntonin BrisudaMarek BabjukJosef ZamecnikPalacký University Olomouc, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistryarticlecancer stem cellsimmunohistochemistrymarkersurothelial carcinomaMedicineRENBiomedical Papers, Vol 165, Iss 3, Pp 316-321 (2021) |
