From: Cancer stem cell markers are enriched in normal tissue adjacent to triple negative breast cancer and inversely correlated with DNA repair deficiency

Figure 1

Stem cell cell surface markers were present in the triple negative normal adjacent tissues to a much greater extent than in the estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) sample. (A) Normal adjacent tissue from a patient with triple-negative cancer: red, CD44; purple, CD49f; green, CD133/2; blue, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and combined CD44+/CD49f+/CD133/2+. Scale bar 25 μm (40×). (B) Normal adjacent tissue from a patient with ER+ disease, no combined cells CD44+/CD49f+/CD133/2+. Scale bar 25 μm (40×).
