Abstract

Existence of cancer stem cell is regarded as a main reason for metastasis and/or recurrences. In this study, the cancer stem-like cell derived from TJ905 glioblastoma multiforme cell line was isolated successfully. However, it was observed that generating rate of the cancer stem-like cells was lower than that of TJ905 cells, that expression of the anti-apoptotic and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) genes were paradoxical to the literatures, which showed the uncertainty of cancer stem cells, and that some stem cell was not the solo factor to maintain tumor growth and resist apoptosis and anti-tumor drugs.
