Transient down-regulation of beta1 integrin subtypes on kidney carcinoma cells is induced by mechanical contact with endothelial cell membranes [PDF]
Adhesion molecules of the integrin beta1 family are thought to be involved in the malignant progression renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Still, it is not clear how they contribute to this process.

Generation of hypoimmunogenic universal iPS cells through HLA-type gene knockout
Hypoimmunogenic universal induced pluripotent stemn (iPS) cells were generated through the targeted disruption of key genes, including human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A, HLA-B and HLA-DR alpha (DRA), using the CRISPR–Cas9 system.

Alterations in integrin expression modulates invasion of pancreatic cancer cells
Background Factors mediating the invasion of pancreatic cancer cells through the extracellular matrix (ECM) are not fully understood. Methods In this study, sub-populations of the human pancreatic cancer cell line, MiaPaCa-2 were established which ...

From monoclonal antibody to gene for a neuron-specific glycoprotein in Drosophila [PDF]
A monoclonal antibody (MAb24B10), derived from mice immunized with Drosophila retina, exclusively stains photoreceptor cells in the retina and their axonal projections to the optic ganglia. The antigen (Ag24B10) is a 160-kDa glycoprotein comprising about

A molecular basis for selective antagonist destabilization of dopamine D3 receptor quaternary organization [PDF]
The dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) is a molecular target for both first-generation and several recently-developed antipsychotic agents. Following stable expression of this mEGFP-tagged receptor, Spatial Intensity Distribution Analysis indicated that a ...

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 and gelsolin identified as novel invasion-modulating factors in conditioned medium of pancreatic cancer cells [PDF]
Conditioned medium (CM) from clonal sub-populations of the pancreatic cancer cell line, MiaPaCa-2 with differing invasive abilities, were examined for their effect on in vitro invasion.

Cloning of Canine Osteosarcoma Cells.
Six clonal cells were established from a canine osteosarcoma cell line (POS) by a limiting dilution method using feeder cells. Whereas histology of mass developed in nude mice by transplantation of POS cells revealed various cell types, clonal cells were morphologically consistent in size and shape.

Positional and functional mapping of a neuroblastoma differentiation gene on chromosome 11 [PDF]
Background: Loss of chromosome 11q defines a subset of high-stage aggressive neuroblastomas. Deletions are typically large and mapping efforts have thus far not lead to a well defined consensus region, which hampers the identification of positional ...
