The origin of germ cells and the molecular mechanisms of primordial germ cell (PGC) determination in teleosts are unclear. Vasa is a member of the DEAD protein family and plays an indispensable role in germ cell determination in Drosophila and Xenopus species. In this study, we isolated and characte

The ability to contribute to the germ line is the most important experimental feature of embryonic stem (ES) cells. Using ES cells, it is possible to introduce targeted mutations into any gene and to derive the corresponding mutant mice. A common problem with this technology is that the ES cells oft

The ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line HEY was used as an in vitro model to study the influence of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) on epithelial tumours such as ovarian cancer. Serum-starved cells were treated with rhG-CSF in a time-and dose-dependent manner. Cell pro

Previously we reported the amplification of the peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) gene in cell lines of human osteogenic and glioma tumors. PMP22 normally is expressed at high levels in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and is suggested to function as a structural protein of the myel
