Abstract excerpt
Various human colon cancer cell lines tested in vitro differed significantly in susceptibility to growth inhibition of recombinant human interferon-beta (rHuIFN-beta). Two p53-mutant lines, COH and CC-M2, derived from high-grade colon adenocarcinoma, showed signs of apoptosis after treatment with 250 IU/ml of HuIFN- beta in the culture medium. The similarly p53-mutated HT-29 line from a grade I adenocarcinoma...
