Pancreatic trypsinogen I expression during cell growth and differentiation of two human colon carcinoma cells.
Pancreatic trypsin has been found to induce tight junction or dome formation in some colon cancer cell lines (HT-29, Caco-2), and a tumor-associated trypsinogen, trypsinogen type II, has been isolated from another colon cancer cell line (COLO 205). We have tried to determine if trypsinogen is present and how its expression varies during cell culture in HT-29 Glc+/- and Caco-2 cells, which exhib...
متن کاملRegulation of VDR Expression in Apc-Mutant Mice, Human Colon Cancers and Adenomas.
One variable that may affect the ability of vitamin D to reduce colon cancer risk is the expression of its high-affinity receptor, VDR. Here, we show that vitamin D does not reduce tumor formation in Apc(Δ14/+) mice and that VDR expression is lost in the majority of the colon tumor cells. The extent of VDR loss corresponded inversely to the level of β-catenin nuclear localization and could be o...
متن کاملCyclooxygenase-2 Expression Is Related to the Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Colon Cancers
PURPOSE Down-regulation of E-cadherin is a hallmark of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT progression in cancer cells is associated with the loss of certain epithelial markers and the acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype, as well as migratory activities. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression is associated with tumor invasion and metastasis in colon cancer. This study investigat...
متن کاملInactivating mutations of proapoptotic Bad gene in human colon cancers.
Evidence exists that deregulation of apoptosis is involved in the mechanisms of cancer development, and the somatic mutations of apoptosis-related genes have been reported in human cancers. Bcl-XL/Bcl-2-associated death promoter (Bad), a proapoptotic member of Bcl-2 family, plays an important role in the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. To explore the possibility that the genetic alterations of Bad...
متن کاملCancers Clinical Significance of Gastrin Receptors in Human Colon
We have measured gastrin receptors (GR) in surgical specimens from 67 patients with primary colon cancers in order to determine the clinical significance of GR in colon cancer. GR analysis was performed on these specimens, and 22 cancers (32.8%) had no detectable GR. Thirty-eight cancers (56.7%) had high-affinity (A,, < 1.0 IIM) levels of GR. Seven cancers (10.4%) had only low-affinity GR (A',,...
