The human neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-BE, after incubation with 10 mM retinoic acid (RA) or 20 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), underwent biochemical and morphological signs of differentiation within 10-14 days. In parallel, SK-N-BE cells produced significantly higher amounts of nitric oxi
Downregulation ofhASH1 is associated with the retinoic acid-induced differentiation of human neuroblastoma cell lines

## Abstract To investigate the alteration of nuclear matrix proteins (NMPs) during the differentiation of neuroblastoma SKβNβSH cells induced by retinoic acid (RA), differentiation markers were detected by immunocytochemistry and NMPs were selectively extracted and subjected to twoβdimensional gel
Background. Neuroblastoma (NBL) is one of the most common solid malignancies in childhood and is derived from the sympathetic precursor cells. Although p53, a tumor suppressor, has been reported to be rarely mutated in NBLs, it is sequestered abnormally in the cytoplasm of the NBL cell. The mechanis
β£-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an enzyme-activated irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, and all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) are known to induce F9 teratocarcinoma stem cell differentiation. Both compounds induce the formation of the same cell type, i.e., parietal endoderm-like cells ex
Calpains have importance in human neurodegenerative disease pathogenesis, but these mechanisms are difficult to study in postmortem tissues. To establish a cellular model of the human calpain and calpastatin system, we characterized calpain I, calpain II, and calpastatin in SH-SY5Y human neuroblasto
## Abstract Retinoic acid (RA) and its derivatives inhibit the proliferation of normal human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) and some breast carcinoma lines by mechanisms which are not fully understood. To identify genes that mediate RAβinduced cell growth arrest, an HMEC cDNA library was synthesiz
