Table 2. The tumor formation ability of sorted 769P side population (SP) and non-side population (NSP) cells in NOD/SCID mice.
Cell type | The number of mice inoculated with different amount of cells | |||
200 cells | 2,000 cells | 20,000 cells | 200,000 cells | |
SP | 2/9 | 9/9 | 9/9 | N/A |
NSP | N/A | 0/9 | 7/8* | 8/8* |
N/A, not applied. All data are presented as the number of mice developed tumors/the number of mice underwent cell inoculation.
One mouse died after inoculation.
