## Abstract Midkine (MK) is a heparin binding growth factor having functions of neuriteβoutgrowth, mitogenesis and tissue repair. This molecule is involved in tumor growth and metastasis. The MK molecule consists of five exons, but there is a truncated isoform, lacking exon 3. We established SW13 c

The GAS1 gene product induces growth arrest through a p53-dependent mechanism. To investigate whether GAS1 is a tumor suppressor gene, we transfected GAS1-negative human tumor cells with GAS1 plasmids and analyzed growth characteristics of stable transfectants. When a constitutively expressing GAS1
Cell lines derived from human tumors of 4 different histo-described (Carey et al., 1976;Kimmel and Carey, 1986; logical types (SWamous carcinoma, melanomas, gliomas and McKeever et al., 1986; Varani et al., 1986). All of the lines a fibrosarcoma) were examined for cell-substrate adhesion on were gro
## Abstract The most practical approach to reduce morbidity and mortality of cancer is to delay the process of carcinogenesis by usage of anticancer agents. This necessitates that safer compounds are to be critically examined for anticancer activity especially, those derived from natural sources. A
