To extend our observations beyond renal cancer lines, we also tested the effects of radiation exposure on MIF levels in the breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and the lung cancer line

Increased expression of Rev3 in human breast epithelial cancer cell lines compared to non- neoplastic human breast epithelial cells MCF-12A, and in human breast tumors compared

To overcome this hurdle for studying the functional role of Vav1 in human breast cancer, we overexpressed Vav1 in two breast cancer cell lines, AU565 and MCF-7, achieving Vav1

induce apoptosis, the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 was shown to effectively induce the maturation of healthy donor- derived immature DCs (iDCs) and subsequently stimulate

The cytotoxicity assays were performed using the tumor cell lineages UACC-62 (human melanoma), MCF-7 (human breast cancer) and TK-10 (human renal cancer).. The cell lineages were

MCF-7 (Human breast cancer cell line), SGC7901 (human gastric carcinoma cell line), LS-174T (human colon adenocarcinoma cell line) and A549 (human lung adenocarcinoma cell)

We not only verified the ectopic expression of Vav1 in human breast cancer cell lines, but also observed that Vav1 expression was induced by 17b-estradiol (E 2 ), a typical

We compared the proliferation of the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and of the non-cancer human mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A in different experimental
