Abstract excerpt
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) generates a potent cytotoxic effect, however many cancer cells are resistant to TNFalpha-mediated killing and the cause of the differential sensitivity remains to be elucidated. In this study, we demonstrated that TNFalpha induced cell death in four different human colon cancer cell lines. The degree of cytotoxic effect was different in each cell line, in that HCT-15 was...
