“…These include cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44, and its variants); CD24/CD44; CD54/CD44; CXCR4; epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)/CD44; aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1); CD90; CD71‐negative; CD133; CD166; leucine‐rich, repeat‐containing, G‐protein–coupled receptor 5 (LGR5), Oct4; and sex‐determining region Y‐box 2 (Sox2). Table 1 lists examples of the CSC markers that have been studied in gastric cancer 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35. When CSCs are positive for several of these markers, the cells display a phenotype of tumorigenicity and chemoresistance.…”
