Abstract excerpt
Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells differentiate spontaneously after confluence when contact inhibition slows proliferation. We hypothesized that such reversible differentiation might be dependent on DNA synthesis and repair. We studied the effects of the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide on Caco-2 proliferation and on the differentiation markers alkaline phosphatase and dipeptidyl dipeptidase specific...
