Expression pattern of mouse mammary tumor virus in transgenic mice carrying exogenous proviruses of different origins.
To study the tissue specificity of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) gene expression, we developed two series of transgenic mice, containing the MMTV proviral DNA of mammary (GR) and kidney (C3H-K) origin. The expression pattern in the MMTV(GR) transgenic mice is very similar to that observed in infected animals, e.g., a strong preference for viral expression in the lactating mammary glands and ...
متن کاملRole of cell surface oligosaccharides of mouse mammary tumor cell lines in cancer metastasis.
Malignant transformation is associated with changes in the glycosylation of cell surface proteins and lipids. In tumor cells, alterations in cellular glycosylation may play a key role in their metastatic behaviour. In the present study, we have assessed the relationship between cell surface oligosaccharides and the metastasis ability of mouse mammary tumor cell lines 67NR and 4TO7. The cell sur...
متن کاملHeterogeneity of expression and induction of mouse mammary tumor virus antigens in mouse mammary tumors.
Seven spontaneous BALB/cfC3H mouse mammary tumors were heterogeneous in expression of murine mammary tumor virus-associated cell surface antigens. To determine the basis of this heterogeneity, cells from spontaneous tumors and from five subpopulations isolated from a single spontaneous tumor were examined for expression of viral antigens under both conventional conditions and conditions known t...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis in human tumor cell lines by platelets
Introduction: It has been reported that platelets can eradicate tumor cells in vitro, although the mechanism of this effect has not been determined. The effect of platelets on the induction of apoptosis in tumor cells is largely unknown. Materials and methods: To investigate this effect, two human hematologic cell lines, K562 and Daudi, were independently faced with unstimulated and thromb...
متن کاملML antigen of DBA/2 mouse leukemias: expression of an endogenous murine mammary tumor virus.
Spontaneous, transplantable leukemias of DBA/2 mice express an antigen (ML) which cross-reacts with antigens of murine mammary tumor virus (MuMTV). The MuMTV cross-reactive antigen of the DBA/2 leukemias (ML cells) was found to be a glycoprotein of 78,000 molecular weight containing antigenic determinants of the major MuMTV glycoprotein gp52. No MuMTV particles were produced by the ML cells, al...
