Processing of Primary Brain Tumor Tissue for Stem Cell Assays and Flow Sorting
Published on: September 25, 2012
Abstract:
Through single-cell RNA sequencing of low-grade oligodendrogliomas, researchers have identified a cell population featuring a gene expression signature similar to those of neural stem and progenitor cells. These cancer stem cells have enriched proliferative potential and may be responsible for fueling the growth of this glioma subtype.

Distinctive Features of Adult Stem Cells vs Cancer Stem Cells
Adult stem cells
Adult stem cells are tissue-specific; hence, they divide to develop the tissue from which they originate. One type of adult stem cell is the epithelial stem cell, which gives rise to the keratinocytes in the multiple layers of epithelial cells in the epidermis of the skin. Adult bone marrow has three distinct types of stem cells:...
