CD133 Expression and Identification of CD133/nestin Positive Cells in Rhabdomyosarcomas and Rhabdomyosarcoma Cell Lines

Background: Co-expression of CD133, cell surface glycoprotein, and nestin, an intermediate filament protein, was determined to be a marker of neural stem cells and of cancer stem cells in neurogenic tumors. Methods: We examined the expression of CD133 and nestin in ten tumor tissue samples taken fro...
