CD13 is a functional marker of cancer stem cells, reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced DNA damage after genotoxic chemo- or radiotherapy, preventing apoptosis. The inhibition of CD13 by the commercially available neutralizing antibody ubenimex results in the increase of ROS, leading to apoptosis.
