Differential expression of intermediate-filament proteins in murine sarcoma 180 ascites or solid tumor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The intermediate-filament proteins in Sarcoma 180 ascites cells and solid tumors generated by s.c. injection of ascites cells in NMRI or nude mice were analyzed by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified by immunological methods. The ascites form of Sarcoma 180 coexpresses keratin and vimentin, whereas the solid tumor ceases to synthesize keratins but continues to express vimentin. These reversible changes in the expression of intermediate-filament proteins may be due to a change in the differentiation program induced by environmental conditions like growth with or without cell contact.

Studies of six new viruses in tumor-bearing mice.
Guaroa virus inhibited or destroyed ascites tumors (Ehrlich or Sarcoma 180) of Swiss white mice when inoculated intraperitoneally from 1 to 6 days after tumor in jection. Thirty of 79 virus-treated mice survived 30 days after injection of Ehrlich ascites cells without accumulation of ascites, whereas all but two of 73 controls died with a mean survival time of 15 days. With Sarcoma 180 ascites,...
متن کاملInhibition of ascites cell growth by combinations of 6-thioguanine and azaserine.
Azaserine has been shown to be a potent in hibitor of de novo purine synthesis in both solid tumors (1, 13) and ascites cells (5, 6, 10). The duration of inhibition has been correlated with increases in the survival time of tumor-bearing hosts (7, 8). During inhibition of de novo purine synthesis by azaserine, the ascites cells maintain the ability to utilize preformed purines and pre sumably s...
متن کاملPoly-L-Lysine Inhibits Tumor Angiogenesis and Induces Apoptosis in Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma and in Sarcoma S-180 Tumor
Background: This study focuses on the role of Poly-L-lysine (PLL), an essential amino acid, on molecular changes of tumor angiogenesis suppression, pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic gene expression after treatment on Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) and solid sarcoma-180 tumor cells bearing mice. Materials and Methods: The cell viability was carried out using MTT assay. The antitumor activity was...
متن کاملRegional differences in the growth of tumor cells injected intraperitoneally into syngeneic adult mice.
C755 mammary carcinoma cells were injected i.p. into adult mice of the strain of origin (C57BL/6). By using a common insertion point but directing the needle caudad or craniad, a differential delivery of tumor cells was deliberately achieved. At high cell doses, the median survival time was shorter for animals receiving anterior injections than for those given pos terior injections. At limiting...

1-Methyl-3-nitro-l-nitrosoguanidine (nitrosoguanidine) was tested for activity against leukemia L1~10 (ascites and solid), Sarcoma 180 (ascites and solid), Ehrlich carcinoma (ascites and solid), 6CSHED ascites lymphosarcoma, and Mecca ascites lymphosarcoma in mice. Nitrosoguanidine was active against all the ascites tumors cxcept Mecca; it was inactive against the three solid tumors. When used ...
