NIH/3T3 mouse fibroblasts were transfected with the cDNA for manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), and two clones overexpressing MnSOD activity were subsequently characterized by comparison with parental and control plasmidtransfected cells. One clone with a 1.8-fold increase in MnSOD activity had

## Background: Recent studies suggest that the gene for manganese superoxide dismutase (mnsod) is a candidate tumor-suppressor gene. the present study was designed to study the effect of overexpression of mnsod on cultured human prostate carcinoma cells. ## Methods: Du145 human prostate carcinoma
## Abstract A cell line derived from a pleiomorphic liposarcoma, named LSA, was previously reported to secrete (a) factor(s) exhibiting oncotoxic properties. The present article describes the isolation, purification and sequence analysis of a protein released by LSA cells into conditioned culture m
