Differentiation Between the Embryonic and Tumour Specific Antigens on Chemically Induced Rat Tumours
نویسندگان
چکیده
The tumour specific antigens and tumour associated embryonic antigens expressed on chemically induced rat hepatomata and sarcomata have been shown to be different by means of blocking antibody studies. Serum from multiparous female rats contained blocking antibody which protected both tumour and embryo cells from the in vitro cytotoxic effect of lymph node cells from multiparous donors. These sera did not, however, block the cytotoxicity of lymph node cells from tumour immune rats for cells of the immunizing tumour. In addition, the tumour specific rejection antigens and embryonic antigens have been shown to have dissimilar locations in tumour cells.

Comparison of BAX and Bcl-2 Expression During Human Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation into Cardiomyocytes and Doxorubicin-induced Apoptosis
Back ground: Although the cell differentiation is an inseparable part of development in multicellular organisms, the regulating molecular pathway of it still is not fully defined. In the other hand, apoptosis is a fundamental physiological process which plays an essential role in a variety of biological events during development. Moreover, recent studies have found that apoptosis shows several ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the prognostic value of CD117 and CK20 biomarkers in urinary bladder carcinoma
Background: Over-expression of CD117 and cytokeratin 20 (CK20) is seen in many malignancies. Given that few studies have been conducted regarding the role of these biomarkers in the etiology of bladder tumours, this study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of CD117 and CK 20 biomarkers in the benign and malignant tumours of urinary bladder carcinoma. Methods: This case-control study was co...
متن کاملCx32 gene mutation in a chemically induced rat liver tumour.
Cx32 is a major gap junction protein of the liver and is often aberrantly expressed in liver tumours. We have studied mutation of the Cx32 gene during chemically induced hepatocarcinogenesis. DNA from 12 rat liver tumours induced by diethylnitrosamine or N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethylnitrosamine (EHEN) was analysed by the PCR/SSCP method. One tumour induced by EHEN harboured a G--> A transition mutatio...
متن کاملHigh neuronal/astroglial differentiation plasticity of adult rat hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells in response to the effects of embryonic and adult cerebrospinal fluids
Hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells (hipp-NS/PCs) of the adult mammalian brain are important sources of neuronal and gial cell production. In this study, the main goal is to investigate the plasticity of these cells in neuronal/astroglial differentiations. To this end, the differentiation of the hipp-NS/PCs isolated from 3-month-old Wistar rats was investigated in response to the embryonic...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that, cultured rat pancreatic carcinoma cells, derived from azaserine-induced acinar tumours, yield tumours with a ductal phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS In order to find out the molecular characteristics of this tumour model, tumour suppressor protein (p53), apoptosis inhibiting protein (Bcl-2) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expressions ...
