Expression data from squamous cell carcinoma stem cells, epidermal progenitor cells and hair follicle bulge stem cells

ABSTRACT: We used microarrays to assess the global gene expression profiles of cancer stem cells which were isolated from cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas which developed when WT, TGF beta receptor II ko, FAK KO, and TGF beta receptor II/FAK double KO were subjected to continuous DMBA treatment. Squamous cell carcinoma stem cells were compared to epidermal progenitor cells (CD49fhighCD34low) and hair follicle bulge stem cells (CD49fhighCD34high). Squamous cell carcinoma was initiated by continuous DMBA treatment (complete carcinogenesis). Cancer cells were sorted based on high CD29 and CD49f expression, infected with a retrovirus expressing a triple modality reporter (luciferase, RFP, thymidine kinase) and grafted onto nude recipient mice. RFP positive lineage was separated into CD29 high, CD49f h
