A genetically engineered cell line that produces empty capsids of B19 (human) parvovirus.
B19 parvovirus is pathogenic in humans, causing the common childhood exanthem fifth disease and bone-marrow failure, both acute (transient aplastic crisis of hemolysis) and chronic (pure erythrocyte aplasia in immunodeficiency). The virus is tropic for a human red cell progenitor cell, and failure to culture B19 in a cell line has limited its clinical study. We cotransfected the right half of t...
متن کاملHuman myelomonocytic cell line THP-1 produces a novel growth-promoting factor with a wide target cell spectrum.
Conditioned medium from a human myelomonocytic cell line THP-1 promoted the growth of a wide variety of cell types, i.e., human and mouse myeloid cells (HL-60, U937, K562, and M1), mouse T-cells (EL-4), human B cells (Daudi and Raji), mouse mastocytoma cells (IC-2), human melanoma cells (A375-C6), mouse transformed fibroblast cells (L929), human lung fibroblast cells (TIG-1), and mouse bone mar...
متن کاملEstablishment a CHO Cell Line Expressing Human CD52 Molecule
Background: CD52 is a small glycoprotein with a GPI anchor at its C-terminus. CD52 is expressed by Normal and malignant T and B lymphocytes and monocytes. There are detectable amounts of soluble CD52 in plasma of patients with CLL and could be used as a tumor marker. Although the biological function of CD52 is unknown but it seems that CD52 may be involved in migration and activation of T-cells...
متن کاملTwo Distinct Pituitary Cell Lines from Mouse Intermediate Lobe Tumors: A Cell that Produces Prolactin-Regulating Factor and a Melanotroph.
The intermediate lobe (IL) of the pituitary produces a PRL-regulating factor (PRF). Targeted tumorigenesis, using the POMC promoter ligated to SV40 large T antigen (Tag), generated transgenic mice that develop IL tumors with PRF activity. Our goal was to establish and characterize a PRF-producing cell line. Two cell lines, which differ markedly in size and morphology, were independently develop...
متن کاملIdentification of Novel Hypoxia Response Genes in Human Glioma Cell Line A172
Objective(s): Hypoxia is a serious challenge for treatment of solid tumors. This condition has been manifested to exert significant therapeutic effects on glioblastoma multiform or (WHO) astrocytoma grade IV. Hypoxia contributes numerous changes in cellular mechanisms such as angiogenesis, metastasis and apoptosis evasion. Furthermore, in molecular level, hypoxia can cause induction of DNA br...
