Oxytocin (OT) inhibits the proliferation of breast-cancer cells in vitro via a specific G-coupled receptor. To elucidate the intracellular mechanism involved in this biological effect, different G-coupled receptor mediators have been investigated in untreated and OT-treated MDA-MB231 breastcarcinoma
MDA-MB-231 (MDA-231) human breast cancer cells have a high proliferation rate, lack the estrogen receptor, express the intermediate filament vimentin, the hyaluronan receptor CD44, and are able to form tumors in nude mice. The MDA-231 cell line has been used in our laboratory to examine the role of
