Abstract excerpt
We have studied the in vitro invasive properties of 3 cell lines derived from the co-transfection of rat embryo fibroblasts (REF) with EIA genes deficient in exon 2 and T24-ras. All 3 cell lines showed invasive properties at passage 10 after isolation. Invasive cells expressed elevated levels of stromelysin-1 and reduced levels of 68-kDa type-IV collagenase compared with untransfected REF. In 2 cell lines the...
