ALDH1 is a marker of normal and malignant human mammary stem cells and a predictor of poor clinical outcome.

TL;DR: It is shown that normal and cancer human mammary epithelial cells with increased aldehyde dehydrogenase activity (ALDH) have stem/progenitor properties and these cells contain the subpopulation of normal breast epithelium with the broadest lineage differentiation potential and greatest growth capacity in a xenotransplant model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast cancer cell lines contain functional cancer stem cells with metastatic capacity and a distinct molecular signature.

TL;DR: It is shown that ALDEFLUOR-positive cells are responsible for mediating metastasis and the hierarchical organization of immortalized cell lines, establish techniques that can facilitate the characterization of regulatory pathways of CSCs, and identify potential stem cell markers and therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

CXCR1 blockade selectively targets human breast cancer stem cells in vitro and in xenografts

TL;DR: The development of a strategy to target these breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) through blockade of the IL-8 receptor CXCR1 and repertaxin was able to specifically target the CSC population in human breast cancer xenografts, retarding tumor growth and reducing metastasis.
