Abstract excerpt
The rodent S100-related calcium-binding protein, S100A4 induces metastasis in non-metastatic rat and mouse benign mammary cells and co-operates with benign-tumour-inducing changes in two transgenic mouse models, to yield metastatic mammary tumours. Co-transfection of the human gene for S100A4 with pSV2neo into the benign rat mammary cell line, Rama 37, yielded cells which expressed a low level of the endogenous...
