A cell line derived from H35 hepatoma cells resistant to methotrexate (MTX) as a result of a defective transport systern for M T X has been examined to determine how closely the variant resembles the parent cells with regard to other cells to catalyze the poly-y-glutamylation of M T X was approxdenc

## Abstract Sodium ascorbate (vitamin C) has a reputation for inconsistent effects upon malignant tumor cells, which vary from growth stimulation to apoptosis induction. Melanoma cells were found to be more susceptible to vitamin C toxicity than any other tumor cells. The present study has shown th
## Abstract It is known that vitamin C induces apoptosis in several kinds of tumor cells, but its effect on the regulation of the angiogenic process of tumors is not completely studied. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the most well‐known angiogenic factor, and it has a potent function
