Abstract excerpt
We have earlier shown that Syrian hamster cells spontaneously transformed in vitro during in vivo progression, acquire in 1 step, along with highly increased tumorigenicity, 2 new properties characterizing the [H2O2CA + tPGE(S)] phenotype, i.e., a high H2O2 catabolizing (antioxidant) activity and the ability to release PGE2 upon contact with NK cells. In contrast, RSV-SR-(v-src)-transformed cells acquire the...
