Immunoglobulin Gene Transcripts Have Distinct VHDJH Recombination Characteristics in Human Epithelial Cancer Cells
18 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
It was well accepted that only B-lymphocytes and plasma cells expressed immunoglobulin (Ig) gene. However, our group and others have confirmed that non-B-cells, such as epithelial cancer cells, can also express Ig. The aim of this work is to elucidate the role of non-B-cell-derived Ig by investigating the characteristics of the Ig heavy chain (IgH) gene repertoire in epithelial cancer cells. We cloned and...
