Cells were grown as monolayers or spheroids. ¦Â-actin was used as the loading control. b Percentage of CD133(+) cells in human sarcoma cells grown as monolayers or as spheroids as determined by FACS analysis. *p£¿<£¿0.05 compared to Monolayers. c Western blot analysis of human sarcoma cells grown as monolayers or as spheroids for self-renewal transcription factors. d Western blot analysis of FACS-sorted CD133(+) and CD133(£¿) spheroid cells for self-renewal transcription factors. Experiments in a¨Cd were performed three times with similar results. e Representative light microscopy images from single cell assays performed in triplicate for human sarcoma spheroid cells FACS-sorted by CD133.
