In this study, gap junction-deficient C6 glioma cells, transfected with either connexin 43 (Cx43) or 32 (Cx32), have been used to evaluate the ability of these connexins to pass intercellular Ca2+ waves. Ca2+ waves, observed with fluorescence imaging using fura-2 or fluo-3, were initiated by mechani

This study examines the efficacy of using plasmid expression vectors containing sense and antisense DNA MTase cDNA to both up-and downregulate intracellular DNA MTase levels in human glioma cells. The effects of the changes in MTase levels on global genomic DNA methylation and on the methylation sta
BACKGROUND. Tissue inhibitors of nietalloproteinases (TIMPs) act as negative regulators of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that degrade extracellular matrix. We evaluated the metastatic ability of the highly metastatic human gastric cell line KKLS, and that of cells transfected with exogenous TIMP-
