Abstract:
Objective To examine the expression of VEGF,MMP-1,and CXCR4 in breast cancer stem cells and its significance.Methods Flow cytometry was employed to separate breast cancer stem cells from MCF-7 cell.Then the expression of VEGF,MMP-1,and CXCR4 was detected by PCR in different subsets of cells.ResultsCompared with the non-stem cells of breast cancer,the expression of VEGF,MMP-1,and CXCR4 in breast cancer stem cells was significantly higher,but the expression of MMP-1 was not different.ConclusionsThe breast cancer stem cells could achieve increased metastasis ability by enhanced expression of VEGF and CXCR4,which are the key factors in metastasis of breast cancer.
