Integrin dimer alpha 6 beta 4 is a transmembrane component of an epithelial cell adhesion complex that consists of hemidesmosomes (HDs), basement membrane (BM)-associated laminin-5 (Ln-5), and anchoring filaments/type VII collagen, all of which are absent from normal thyroid follicular epithelium.

The MN/CA9 (G250) gene expressed in the normal alimentary tract in a tissue-specific manner is often activated in renal cell carcinomas. To cast light on the activation mechanism, we examined the methylation status of this gene in seven human renal cell carcinoma cell lines and three normal kidney t
To define the possible role of the VHL gene in the development of sporadic renal cell carcinomas, 91 different parenchymal tumours of the kidney have been investigated for mutation of the VHL gene by single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) andlor heteroduplex (HD) techniques. Chromosome 3p de
cDNA subtraction was employed to uncover differences in gene expression between myeloproliferative polycythaemia vera (PV) and normal haematopoietic precursors. Following cDNA subtraction using mRNAs isolated from PV and normal CD34+/CD33x bone-marrow cells, expression of the tumour suppressor H19 w
A stable variant of the PC12 cell line (PC12.4) has been isolated on the basis of its cell adhesive properties and morphological characteristics. Cells from the PC12.4 subline differ from the parental cell line in that they readily adhere to
