On the other hand, the expression of CD166, CD133, CD44, A2B5, CD56, NGFR and DCX seemed to be higher in UA cells, but also not statistically significant, while the expression of CD9, Nestin, GFAP, CD24, PDGFRb, PDGFRa, MAP2, TUBIII, S100 were consistently high in both UA and tumor core samples (Fig. 4) and (Supplementary Table S6). Here, NGFR is linked to neoplasm.
