متن کاملPoised Chromatin at the ZEB1 Promoter Enables Breast Cancer Cell Plasticity and Enhances Tumorigenicity
The recent discovery that normal and neoplastic epithelial cells re-enter the stem cell state raised the intriguing possibility that the aggressiveness of carcinomas derives not from their existing content of cancer stem cells (CSCs) but from their proclivity to generate new CSCs from non-CSC populations. Here, we demonstrate that non-CSCs of human basal breast cancers are plastic cell populati...
متن کاملMet expression and sarcoma tumorigenicity.
The met protooncogene tyrosine kinase receptor (Met) and its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), ordinarily constitute a paracrine signaling system in which cells of mesenchymal origin produce the ligand, which binds to the receptor that is predominantly expressed in cells of epithelial origin. However, mouse NIH/3T3 fibroblasts overexpressing Met induce tumor formation in...
متن کاملTumorigenicity of IV-Nitrosohexamethyleneimine1
A new carcinogen, W-nitrosohexamethyleneimine (W-nitrosoperhydroazepine), was synthesized and given to rats of both sexes. The incidence of mixed malignant liver cell carcinomas and endothelial sarcomas was virtually 100% when the drug was given at 200 mg/liter for 8 weeks, while benign and malig nant epitheliomas of the tongue or esophagus occurred in about 30%. When the drug concentration was...
متن کاملTumorigenicity and lysis by natural killers
Detailed analysis of the natural killer (NK) activity directed at nontumorigenic cell lines and their transformed tumorigenic derivatives has revealed a paradox. On the one hand, a correlation has been found between the tumorigenic potential of chemically transformed fibroblast cell lines and their sensitivity to NK cells in vitro. Nontransformed cells (N-type cell lines) and cells tumorigenic ...
