Differential effects of over-expressed neural cell adhesion molecule isoforms on myoblast fusion
We have used a transfection based approach to analyze the role of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in myogenesis at the stage of myoblast fusion to form multinucleate myotubes. Stable cell lines of myogenic C2 cells were isolated that express the transmembrane 140- or 180-kD NCAM isoforms or the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linked isoforms of 120 or 125 kD. We found that expression of...
متن کاملNeural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and myoblast fusion.
Considerable evidence points to an involvement of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in myoblast fusion. Changes in the level of NCAM expression, isoform specificity, and localization in muscle cells and tissues correspond to key morphogenetic events during muscle differentiation and repair. Furthermore, anti-NCAM antibodies have been shown by others to reduce the rate of myoblast fusion, whe...
متن کاملExpression of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) isoforms in neuroblastoma.
A comparative study on the expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in human neuroblastoma cell lines and tissues was undertaken. NCAMs are a family of closely related cell surface glycoproteins involved in cell-cell interactions. Using antibodies that recognise distinct epitopes on NCAM, their presence was shown in neuroblastoma, but these studies do not yield any information on ...
متن کاملNeuroectodermal Tumors Molecule Isoforms and L1 Adhesion Molecules on Human Differential Spectrum of Expression of Neural Cell Adhesion
A series of four medulloblastomas, seven neuroblastomas (Nb), two ependymomas, and three gliomas, human neuroectodermal tumors, were screened for their expression of adhesion molecules LI, carcinoembryonic antigen, neural cell adhesion molecule isoforms (N-CAM) and HNK1 epitope by Western blotting and double immunofluorescence labeling. All seven neuroblastomas, whatever their differentiated st...
