RNA-seq of human U87MG-GFP perivascular glioma stem cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) have been reported to be found near the blood vessels. We wanted to identify the perivascular GSCs by combining the label retention approach with vascular perfusion. GSCs, like most of the stem cells, are in a quiescent state. Label retention approach involves staining the cells with a uniform membrane labeling dye (PKH26) and allowing them to grow in vivo in NOD SCID mice. Slow-dividing stem cells will retain the dye to a greater extent and perivascular cells are identified by injecting the mice with vascular perfusion dye (Hoechst 33342) 5 min prior to sacrifice. Perivascular GSCs (positive for Hoechst 33342 and pKH26 dye - dubbed as H+P+) were compared with the rest of the perivascular glioma cells (H+P-).
