Abstract excerpt
Human manganese containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) cDNA was transfected into a human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) in order to examine the effect of increased functional MnSOD on the cellular phenotype. A MnSOD-overexpressing clone was compared to control vector-transfected cells and to wild type MCF-7 cells. Southern blotting indicated incorporation of MnSOD cDNA into genomic DNA in the MnSOD...
