CD133+ HPCs promotes breast cancer growth in vivo. Balb/c nude mice were implanted subcutaneously with MCF-7 or MDA-MB-231 cells alone or together with CD133- HUCBCs or CD133+ HPCs (20:1) and the grown tumor volumes were monitored. a Data are present the mean ± SD of each group (n = 8); b Tumor formation of MCF-7 cells in vivo; c Tumor formation of MDA-MB-231 cells in vivo; d Representative histology (H&E) for the MCF-7 tumor tissue (× 400); e Representative histology (H&E) for the MDA-MB-231 tumor tissue (× 400)
