Figure 1. Characteristics of glioma stem-like cells (GSCs).

Figure 1.

A, GSCs grow as neurosphere-like gliomaspheres in stem cell medium (original magnification × 20). B, GSCs adhered to poly-lysine-coated plates when cultured in 10% FBS/DMEM/F12 medium (original magnification × 100). C, the expression of neuronal class III beta-tubulin-1 (TUJ-1), a neuronal marker on the GSC sphere (original magnification × 200). D, the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an astrocytic marker in the GSC sphere (original magnification × 200). E-G, immunostaining of tumor cells for neural stem cell markers, Nestin (E), CD133 (F), and Sox-2 (G), in the GSC sphere (original magnification × 200).
