ADENOSINE DEAMINASE ACTIVITY IN ESTROGEN RECEPTOR POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE HUMAN BREAST CANCER CELL LINES
ABSTRACT Background: The aims of this study were to assay the activity of adenosine deaminase (ADA) in estrogen receptor positive (MCF-7) and negative (MDA-MB468) breast cancer cell lines. Methods: MDA-MB468 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines were cultured in complete medium, striped serum with and without 0.0 1~-LM diethylstilbestrol (DES), complete medium in the presence and absence of 111M ...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta: potential autocrine growth inhibitor of estrogen receptor-negative human breast cancer cells.
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta), a two-subunit Mr 25,000 polypeptide, inhibits growth of several epithelial human cancer cell lines and has been proposed as an autocrine growth inhibitor. TGF beta activity has been found in conditioned media from some breast cancer cell lines, and TGF beta mRNA has been detected in breast cancer cell lines and human breast cancer specimens. In the pr...
متن کاملAntisense estrogen receptor RNA expression increases epidermal growth factor receptor gene expression in breast cancer cells.
In human breast cancer, progression to a more malignant phenotype is often accompanied by decreased expression of estrogen receptor (ER) and increased expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Higher levels of this receptor tyrosine kinase are found in tumors lacking ER, and a quantitative, inverse relationship exists between the level of ER and EGFR mRNA in human breast cell lines...
متن کاملBRCA1 inhibits membrane estrogen and growth factor receptor signaling to cell proliferation in breast cancer.
BRCA1 mutations and estrogen use are risk factors for the development of breast cancer. Recent work has identified estrogen receptors localized at the plasma membrane that signal to cell biology. We examined the impact of BRCA1 on membrane estrogen and growth factor receptor signaling to breast cancer cell proliferation. MCF-7 and ZR-75-1 cells showed a rapid and sustained activation of extrace...
متن کاملAmphiregulin, epidermal growth factor receptor, and estrogen receptor expression in human primary breast cancer.
Amphiregulin is a recently described member of the epidermal growth factor family. Primary breast cancers were assessed for expression of amphiregulin by immunochemistry (111 cases), Northern, and/or dot blots (68 cases). Epidermal growth factor and estrogen receptors were measured in all cases. p53 and erbB-2 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry for most cases. There was no associat...
