Effect of epidermal growth factor on glioma cell growth, migration, and invasion in vitro.
Effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and an antibody (Ab-528) reactive against the binding site for EGF on human EGF receptors were studied on multicellular tumor spheroids obtained from three human glioma cell lines with high (D-37 MG), medium (D-247 MG), and low (D-263 MG) levels of EGF receptor expression. The D-247 MG and D-263 MG spheroids grew slowly or not at all in the absence of EG...
متن کاملEffect of Fasudil on Glioma Cell Migration
Gliomas are tumors arising from glial cells that are highly infiltrative within the brain. Their extensive migratory patterns greatly limit the treatment options and prognoses for patients. It has been shown that glioma cells undergo migration in a unique manner that relies heavily on non-muscle myosin II. Since functionality of non-muscle myosin II requires the phosphorylation of its regulator...
متن کاملOn a New Bimodal Normal Family
The unimodal distributions are frequently used in the theorical statistical studies. But in applied statistics, there are many situations in which the unimodal distributions can not be fitted to the data. For example, the distribution of the data outside the control zone in quality control or outlier observations in linear models and time series may require to be a bimodal. These situations, oc...
متن کاملHalosulfuron Has a Variable Effect on Cucurbit Growth and Yield
Halosulfuron is a proposed alternative to methyl bromide for managing nutsedges (Cyperus spp.) in several vegetable crops, including cucurbits. Field studies were conducted to evaluate the crop sensitivity to halosulfuron in a spring squash (Cucurbita pepo L.)—fall cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) rotation from 2000 to 2002. Treatments included application of halosulfuron to the soil surface after...
متن کاملDifferential effect of thrombin on the growth of human fibroblasts
The ability of thrombin to alter the growth of human skin fibroblasts was studied under a variety of experimental conditions. In agreement with previous reports, we obtained a moderate level of cell growth in confluent cultures using 0.5-8.0 U/ml of thrombin. In subconfluent cultures, the effect was strikingly different and was found to be dependent upon the time in culture when the enzyme was ...
