Figure 3 Breast cancer stem cell markers. The breast cancer stem cells can be differentiated from cancer and normal cells based on the increased or altered expression of various cell surface markers. These marker proteins have various functions that are responsible for the development and survival of breast cancer stem cells and can be used to isolate the cancer stem cells from the bulk of the tumor. BCSCs: Breast cancer stem cells; ECM: Extracellular matrix; EMT: Epithelial mesenchymal transitions; ALDH: Aldehyde dehydrogenase.
