N-myc can cooperate with ras to transform normal cells in culture.
N-myc, a cellular gene bearing homology to the c-myc protooncogene, is frequently amplified and overexpressed in a highly restricted set of related tumors, most notably neuroblastomas and retinoblastomas. We have examined the possibility that N-myc may play a causal role in the genesis of these tumors by defining its ability to transform primary cells in tissue culture. Using an N-myc expressio...
متن کاملTwo oncogenes, v-fos and v-ras, cooperate to convert normal keratinocytes to squamous cell carcinoma.
Previous studies have implicated the rasHa oncogene in the initiation of skin carcinogenesis and the fos oncogene in malignant progression of premalignant skin cell lines. To determine if these two oncogenes are sufficient to convert normal keratinocytes to cancer cells, freshly isolated mouse keratinocytes were coinfected with replication-defective (psi-2) v-rasHa and v-fos viruses in culture....
متن کاملLearning to Cooperate in Normal Form Games
We study the problem of achieving cooperation between two self-interested agents that play a sequence of randomly generated normal form games, each game played only once. To achieve cooperation we extend a model used to explain cooperative behavior by humans. We show how a modification of a pre-regularized particle filter can be used to detect the cooperation level of the opponent and play acco...
متن کاملComparison of the Initial Treatment Results of N-myc Positive and N-myc Negative Neuroblastoma Patients
Background: Neuroblastoma is the most common extra cranial malignant solid tumor of childhood. Various molecular and cytogenetic factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neuroblastoma, some of which have proven useful in predicting clinical behavior. Over expression of the oncogen N-myc, is an important indicator of prognosis. Materials and Methods: Our study was performed from 20...
متن کاملOncogenic ras and p53 cooperate to induce cellular senescence.
Oncogenic activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade in murine fibroblasts initiates a senescence-like cell cycle arrest that depends on the ARF/p53 tumor suppressor pathway. To investigate whether p53 is sufficient to induce senescence, we introduced a conditional murine p53 allele (p53(val135)) into p53-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts and examined cell proliferation and...
