In order to determine the role of N-ras overexpression and mutation in malignant liver cell transformation, wild-type and mutated N-ras were transfected into the rat liver epithelial cell line OC/CDE 22, and N-ras expression, growth kinetics, growth in soft agar, and tumorigenicity in vivo as well a
Epidermal growth factor stimulates prostaglandin production and cyclooxygenase activity in endometrial stromal cells isolated from the uteri of ovariectomized rats sensitized for the decidual reaction. The present study examined the effect of epidermal growth factor on cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxyg
Well-differentiated mammary carcinomas carrying mutated Ha-ras-1 oncogenes arise frequently in pubescent rats exposed to the direct-acting methylating agent N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU). When these tumors are serially transplanted, they acquire more aggressive phenotypes. To determine the genetic al
We have previously shown that rat liver epithelial cells (RLEC) transfected with and constitutively expressing transforming growth factor-Ξ± (TGF-Ξ±) have an enhanced mitogenic response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). In the study reported here, we examined tumor clones derived from the TGF-Ξ± trans
