The tissue culture and morphology of human breast tumor cell line BOT-2.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A continuous human breast tumor cell line (BOT-2) was derived from an infiltrating duct carcinoma. The tumor cell line was grown as a monolayer in flasks, but the cells could be readily adapted to growth in roller cultures. These studies indicate that BOT-2 cells have a 16- to 18-hr doubling time and a modal chromosomal number of 63. The original BOT-2 cell culture has been in continuous cultivation for almost 2 years and has been passed 137 times. The BOT-2 cell line has been differentiated from HeLa cells by isoenzyme studies and chromosomal analysis.

Modeling Breast Acini in Tissue Culture for Detection of Malignant Phenotype Reversion to Non-Malignant Phenotype
Backgrounds: Evidence is accumulating to support disruption of tissue architecture as a powerful event in tumor formation. For the past four decades, intensive cancer research with the premise of “cancer as a cell based-disease” focused on finding oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. However, the role of the tissue architecture was neglected. Three dimensional (3D) cell cultures which can recap...
متن کاملPRODUCTIO N OF PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN (PSA) BY A BREAST CANCER CELL LINE, SK-Br-3
PSA is a 33-KDa serine protease that is produced predominantly by prostate epithelium. However, it has been shown that about 30-40% of female breast tumors produce PSA and its production is associated with the presence of estrogen and progesterone receptors. We have now developed a new tissue culture system to study PSA production in breast cancer and its association with prognostic factors...

Background: ncRNAs have been identified as oncogenic drivers and tumor suppressors in any type of cancer. Although many classes of ncRNAs have been reported, most studies have been performed on microRNAs (miRNAs). miRNAs can regulate several target genes and affect important processes such as homeostasis, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Located in the p75NTR ge...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cells Trigger Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition in the HT-29 Colorectal Cancer Cell Line
Background and Objective: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) promote metastasis in colorectal cancer; however, the mechanism underlying this process is not fully understood. Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key step in tumor acquisition of metastatic phenotype. We aimed to investigate the effect of MSCs on the expression of EMT markers, as well as cancer stem cell markers in HT-29 col...

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Nearly 30% of breast cancers are hormone-dependent, and these hormones comprising estrogens influence progression of breast cancers. It is now widely recognized that p53 may be the most frequently mutated protein in breast cancer. High levels of p53 protein are a common feature of many human malignant cancers. Given that, T47...
