Abstract
⺠Four oral squamous cancer cell lines (OSCCL) were analyzed for cancer stem cells (CSCs). ⺠Single cell derived colonies of OSCCL express CSC-marker CD133 differentially. ⺠Monoclonal cell lines showed reduced sensitivity for Paclitaxel. ⺠In situ CD133+ cells are slow cycling (Ki67-) indicating a reduced drug sensitivity. ⺠CD133+ and CSC-like cells can be obtained from single colony forming cells of OSCCL.
