The effect of retinoic acid (RA) on the expression of myelin-specific genes, i.e., proteolipid protein (PLP) and myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) in rat glioma C6 cells, was analyzed by Northern blot hybridization. RA-treatment increased the steady-state level of the PLP-specific messages within

The cellular distribution of active and inactive transglutaminase (TGase) was studied in C6 glioma cells before and during stimulation by a serum-containing medium. The activity of the enzyme was determined in t h e soluble and insoluble fractions obtained by freezing and thawing the cells, followed
## Abstract The activity of nonspecific cholinesterase (nChE) was revealed histochemically in a small number of C6 glioma cells under conditions of spontaneous growth in culture. The nChEβpositive cells (nChE+) first appeared in 4βdayβold cultures. They occurred solitarily or in small groups with a
## Abstract Rat C6 glioma cells are commonly used to investigate the functions of glial cells. To evaluate the presence of testosterone and its metabolism in rat C6 glioma cells, we cultured them in media with or without the addition of testosterone propionate and anastrozole, a blocker of aromatas
HL-60 cells were incubated with ["Pl-P, in order to label endogenous phosphoproteins in situ. These were then resolved via two-dimensional electrophoresis and autoradiograms were made from the gels. A comparison of autoradiograms made from rctinoic-acid-differentiated cells with those made from cont
## Abstract Chemopreventive approaches for the treatment of breast cancer have been validated clinically and with in vitro studies. The combined action of tamoxifen/allβtrans retinoic acid was advantageous in MCFβ7 cells, reducing cell proliferation, Bclβ2 and cβMyc protein levels and increasing Eβ
