Abstract excerpt
Src transformation of NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts has been shown to be dependent on Ras function. Since we recently showed that the signaling pathways that mediate Ras transformation of RIE-1 rat intestinal epithelial cells are distinct from those that cause Ras transformation of fibroblasts, we uti...
