Transforming growth factor-β1-induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition generates ALDH-positive cells with stem cell properties in cholangiocarcinoma

Highlights • TGF-β1-induced EMT promotes cancer stem cell-like properties. • ALDH acts as a marker for cancer stem cells in cholangiocarcinoma. • The expressions of TGF-β1 and ALDH1 can predict the prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma.
