Abstract excerpt
In mouse epidermal carcinogenesis, the latest stage of malignant progression involves the transition from squamous cell carcinoma to a highly aggressive type of tumor with spindle morphology. In this work, we have isolated a minor epithelial cell subpopulation (CarC-R) contained in the highly malignant spindle carcinoma cell line CarC. CarC-R exhibited a drastic reduction in tumorigenicity when compared with...
