This report demonstrates that the expression of melanoma growth stimulatory activity (MGSA) mRNA can be modulated in a positive fashion in the Hs294T human melanoma cell line by PDGF and MGSA. There is close correlation between MGSA expression and the pattern of cell growth in Hs294T cells.
Bi-specific antibody fragments (bAB) are used in tumour therapy as a means to redirect and to strengthen effector cell function. It would be of great therapeutic advantage if, in addition, recruitment, expansion and the state of activity of effector cells are influenced by targeting through a bAB. T
The interactions of nude mouse macrophages with five human melanoma cell lines, characterized by their resistance to mouse NK activity and varying in their ability to grow s.c. in nude mice, were investigated.
