alpha-Melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) was found significantly to reduce tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) stimulated upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in normal adult cutaneous melanocytes. The maximum inhibitory response to alpha-MSH was obtained at around
The common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA) is identical to human endopeptidase 24.1 I (E-24.1 I) and is expressed on certain human melanoma lines. This work was conducted in order t o investigate whether alphamelanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) could be a substrate for E-24.1 I
## Abstract We have targeted the urokinase‐type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) with phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotides (aODN) __in vitro__ to evaluate the anti‐invasive and anti‐proliferative effects of uPAR down‐regulation, as well as __in vivo__ to evaluate anti‐tumor and anti‐met
