BMI1, ALDH1A1, and CD133 Transcripts Connect Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition to Cancer Stem Cells in Lung Carcinoma

<div>Association between EMT in CSC marker expression in primary-tumors of 57 NSCLC patients. (a) Linear regression results between BMI1, ALDH1A1, and CD133 mRNA expression. (b) Correlation of the IHC grading of BMI1, ALDH1A1, and CD133 protein expression. (c) Representative results of IHC stainings for BMI1, ALDH1A1, and CD133 at different staining intensities (top, high positive; bottom, low positive/negative).</div>
