Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (CD 26) gene expression in enterocyte-like colon cancer cell lines HT-29 and Caco-2. Cloning of the complete human coding sequence and changes of dipeptidyl peptidase IV mRNA levels during cell differentiation.
Amplification of ERBB-2 was detected in 14 out of 63 (22%) cases of breast carcinoma, in 1 out of 23 patients with ovarian cancers, in 1 out of 19 cases of colon carcinoma and in 1 out of 27 patients with thyroid cancer.
The tumor/normal ratio, when plotted against the Dukes' stage of disease, gave evidence for increasing P0 expression with increasing stage of colon carcinoma (P = 0.02).
Subclones of the SW 613-S human colon carcinoma cell line differ by their ability to induce tumors in nude mice and by their level of amplification of the c-myc gene.
The mean ratio of colon cancerHLBP31 mRNA to adjacent normal mucosa HLBP31 mRNA was twofold lower in primary tumors of patients with metastases (0.3 +/- 0.2 SD) than in primary tumors of patients free of metastatic lesions (0.6 +/- 0.2 SD).
To investigate whether various laminin-binding proteins are differentially expressed in human colon carcinoma, we studied messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of the 67 LR and HLBP31 in matched tumor and adjacent normal mucosa samples from a series of 21 patients.
The present investigation used Northern blot analysis to study the expression of MUC1, MUC2, MUC3, and MUC4 mRNA in paired normal and cancerous colonic tissues, and nine colon cancer cell lines.
We have now compared the accumulation of HSP-70 proteins in heat-shocked human leukemic cells KG-1, HL-60, and K562 to that in Ht1080, a colon carcinoma cell line.
We have tried to develop a new model consisting of rats transplanted with syngeneic colon carcinoma PROb cells transfected with cDNA coding for the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), the human tumor marker most commonly used as target for MAbs.
The results showed that (a) laminin and collagen IV (but not fibronectin) play a role in colon cancer cell attachment to substrata, and (b) anti-sense RNA of LBP-32 inhibits tumor cell attachment and invasiveness in vitro.
Clone A, a poorly differentiated human colon carcinoma cell line, was transfected with EMSV33 alone (control), or EMSV33 with the insert in sense (LBP-S) or anti-sense (LBP-AS) direction using lipofectin.
They imply that inactivation of APC, MCC, and/or a linked gene on chromosome 5q plays a role in the pathogenesis of some cancers of the upper gastrointestinal tract, as well as in colon cancer and familial adenomatous polyposis.

Recombinant human interferon-beta ser17 (IFN-beta ser17), a cytokine that exhibits both antiviral and antiproliferative activity against a wide variety of cell types, causes a time- and dose-dependent inhibition of monolayer growth and of the expression of the c-myc proto-oncogene in DLD-1 Clone A human colon-carcinoma cells.
Posttranscriptional regulation of c-myc proto-oncogene expression and growth inhibition by recombinant human interferon-beta ser17 in a human colon carcinoma cell line.
