Metabolism of retinoids by embryonal carcinoma cells.
Several embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell lines were tested in culture for their ability to metabolize all-trans-[3H]retinol, all-trans-[3H]retinyl acetate, and all-trans-[3H]retinoic acid. There was little, if any, metabolism of all-trans-retinol to more polar compounds; we failed to detect conversion to acidic retinoids by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and derivatization. W...
متن کاملDehydroepiandroesteron increased proliferation of neural progenitor cells derived from p19 embryonal carcinoma stem cells.
Introduction: The p19 line of embryonal carcinoma cells develops into neurons, astroglia and fibroblasts after aggregation and exposure to retinoic acid (RA). Dehydroepiandroesteron (DHEA) is a neurosteroid, can increase proliferation of human neural stem cell (NSC) and positively regulated the number of neurons produced. This study was initiated to assess the effect of DHEA on neural progenito...
متن کاملRC-6 ribonuclease induces caspase activation, cellular senescence and neuron-like morphology in NT2 embryonal carcinoma cells.
Frog ribonucleases have been demonstrated to have anticancer activities. However, whether RC-6 ribonuclease exerts anticancer activity on human embryonal carcinoma cells remains unclear. In the present study, RC-6 induced cytotoxicity in NT2 cells (a human embryonal carcinoma cell line) and our studies showed that RC-6 can exert anticancer effects and induce caspase-9 and -3 activities. Moreove...
متن کاملMetabolism of benzo(a)pyrene by murine embryonal carcinoma cells.
Murine embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells were characterized with respect to their ability to metabolize the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, benzo(a)pyrene [B(a)P]. The extent of metabolic activation varied more than 100-fold among the teratocarcinoma-derived cell lines examined. This difference in metabolic activity was correlated with an increase in the formation of specific metabolites that wer...
متن کاملIncreased probability of expression from modified retroviral vectors in embryonal stem cells and embryonal carcinoma cells.
Gene expression from the Moloney murine leukemia retrovirus (Mo-MuLV) is highly restricted in embryonic carcinoma (EC) and embryonic stem (ES) cells. We compared levels of expression in PA317 fibroblasts, F9 (EC) cells, and CCE (ES) cells by Mo-MuLV-based vectors and vectors based on our previously reported MND backbone, which has alterations to address three viral elements implicated as repres...
