Figure 2

Proliferation ability of the CD133+ and CD133- cells in serum-free medium. CD133- cells showed slow growth and good adherence; and almost all cells died within 2 weeks (A). CD133+ cells formed floating spheres (B). When the floating spheres were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, the cells were adherent and proliferated similarly to unsorted miapaca-2 cells (C). The expression of CD133 mRNA in CD133+ cells was dramatically higher than unsorted miapaca-2 cells and re-adherence CD133+ cells (D). aP < 0.05.
