Our previous work has shown that the CD44 + and CD44 + α2β1 + prostate cancer cell populations are enriched
in tumorigenic and metastatic CSCs, whereas the α2β1 + prostate cancer cells most likely mark fast - proliferating tumor progenitors (28, 29).
Consequently, the use of such a marker suggests a new strategy to screen novel therapeutics in a rapid and efficient manner directly
in the tumorigenic mouse.

Although we agree that greater investments are needed
in the clinical development of these therapies, we disagree with the authors» suggestion that, relative to embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells provide a superior vehicle for cell - based therapies because they lack
tumorigenic activity, can be prepared by methods approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and have been free of ethical controversy.

in highly
tumorigenic cancer subpopulations and raise interesting questions about their contribution to the increased metastatic capability observed

tumorigenic in immune - deficient mice, and exhibit both stem - like and EMT phenotypes.
In our laboratory, we have previously described an in vitro model of spontaneous transformation of the IL -3-dependent hematopoietic BaF3 cell line towards growth factor - independent tumorigenic clones with constitutive STAT5 activation.14 This model was developed from the study of BaF3 cells transfected with an IL - 9Rα mutant lacking the STAT - recruiting site (BaF3 phe116
