Description
The induced pluripotent stem-like cells from human gastric cell line, KMU-CS12 (CS12) were derived from putative human gastric stem cell/progenitor cell clone. CS12 expressed cancer cell phenotypes, i.e. the ability of anchorage-independent growth high frequency (44%) and to the expression of Oct4, a stemness marker and many types of cancer cells, and tumor development in immune deficient mice.
