## Abstract Estradiol levels in breast tumors from postβmenopausal women are similar to those in preβmenopausal women even though plasma estrogens are much lower after the menopause. __In situ__ estrogen production by the tumor provides a potential means of maintaining high estradiol levels in post
We have investigated the effects of laminin, on the plasminogen-activator system of MCF-7 breast-carcinoma cells. MCF-7 cells were incubated on plastic or laminin-coated wells, and medium and cell lysate aliquots were assayed for tissue-type (tPA) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) by a
