Key Finding
Stratification by LAPTM4B-positive and LGR5-positive stem-like cell ratios defined four colorectal cancer stem-like subtypes. The LAPTM4B-dominant CSS2 subtype was associated with the poorest prognosis, with a reported hazard ratio of 2.31.
Countstar Connection
Within the study, Countstar Rigel S2 measured cell concentration and viability in the study's cell samples during preparation for single-cell or single-nucleus analysis.
