Abstract excerpt
The relationship between the expression of a mutant ras gene in epithelial cells and loss of responsiveness to the negative effects of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is presently unclear. We have investigated this question using a series of cell lines derived from benign and malignant mouse skin tumours which express mutant forms of the H-ras gene. Immortalised, non-tumorigenic mouse epidermal cells...
