Abstract excerpt
Anchorage-independent growth of normal rat kidney (NRK) fibroblast in soft agar depends on both transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). To examine whether c-fos protein is involved in phenotypic transformation of NRK cells, we have transfected and isolated several NRK cell lines that carry the human c-fos gene fused to the metallothionein IIA promoter. A transfectant, Nf-1,...
