Abstract excerpt
Possible differentiation mechanisms were investigated in a glioblastoma multiform cell line (GL15) presenting an undifferentiated phenotype with weak glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and strong vimentin (VIM) expression. Serum-free conditions induced time-dependent increases of GFAP-mRNA and GFAP protein levels, associated with a process-bearing astrocytic morphology. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by...
