Spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with cells derived from transitional cell carcinomas (TCC) of the human urinary bladder were fused with mouse myeloma Sp 2/0 Ag14 cells. Monoclonal antibodies from six established hybridomas were investigated for specificity in a cell ELISA and in indirect imm
A 60-kDa glycoprotein named metanestin was identified by molecular cloning. The glycoprotein had a twice-repeated motif of Pro-Gly-Pro-Gly and carried metastasis-associated carbohydrate epitopes. The antibody to the protein portion of metanestin strongly reacted with lymph-node metastasis of transit
## Abstract TGFβΞ² signaling is frequently perturbed in many human cancers, including renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) and transitional cell carcinomas (TCCs) of the bladder. Genetic alterations of the TGFβΞ² type 1 receptor (TGFBR1) may contribute to these perturbations. We therefore examined variations
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Patients with transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder metastatic to regional lymph nodes (LN) typically have a poor prognosis. However, some patients are cured by radical cystectomy alone. The goal of this study was to identify predictors of survival in t
## Abstract Epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressor genes by promoter hypermethylation has been shown for a variety of genes in bladder cancer. Various p53 target genes have been investigated, but only few demonstrated promoter hypermethylation when semiquantitative detection methods were applied.
