## Abstract Regulated shedding of cell surface proteins is a mechanism for rapid activation of autocrine and paracrine signaling. Here we report that chelerythrine, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor that possesses a variety of biological functions, is a potent inducer of heparinβbinding epidermal
Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a member of the EGF family and is highly expressed in hepatoma tissues but not in normal liver. However, it is unknown when HB-EGF is induced during hepatocarcinogenesis and what are the mechanisms underlying its high expre
## Abstract Although the mechanism is unknown, infiltration anesthetics are believed to have membraneβstabilizing action. We report here that such a most commonly used anesthetic, lidocaine, effectively inhibited the invasive ability of human cancer (HT1080, HOS, and RPMIβ7951) cells at concentrati
