METHODS: Using in vivo tumorigenicity and a spontaneous metastasis assay in nude mice, two sublines (BE1, LH7) from human giant cell carcinoma of lung (PG) with different metastatic potentials were isolated and characterized. mRNA differential display was used to compare the levels of gene expression between them and the obtained results were confirmed by Northern hybridization. RESULTS: One differentially expressed band was nearly identical (99% homology) to Ras-GTPase-Activating protein SH3 domain binding protein (G3BP). G3BP displayed a strong expression in LH7 (non-metastatic in recipient nude mice) and a very weak expression in BE1 (100% metastatic frequency). The same different expression level of G3BP was detected in Northern hybridization with another panel of cell sublines with different metastatic potentials (established in our lab) derived from human prostate carcinoma cell line PC-3M. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that G3BP was implicated in cancer metastasis because of its differential expressions in the two panels of cell sublines with different metastatic potentials.展开更多

METHODS: ES cells from Balb/C mice were cultured and maintained in an undifferentiated state in gelatin-coated dishes using Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 1000 U/ml leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF). Then, LIF was withdrawn from the DMEM to allow the ES cells to develop into embryonic bodies (EBs). EBs were plated onto tissue culture dishes, and growth factors such as acidicfibroblast growth factor (aFGF) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) were added to the medium to promote directional differentiation. The course of development and differentiation was observed dynamically using an inversion microscope. The expression of hepatic proteins, such as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), albumin (ALB), cytokeratin 8 (CK8), cytokeratin 18 (CK18), in cytoplasm was analyzed by immunocytochemistry (ICC). The concentration of ALB in the medium was determined dynamically by radioimmunoassay (RIA). RESULTS: ES cells replicated as clones, without differentiating, in DMEM containing LIF. They developed into EBs in medium without LIF. Our ICC assay showed that differentiating cells did not express hepatic proteins, such as AFP, ALB, CK8, and CK18 until day 7, day 9, day 11, and day 11, respectively (up to 2 days later when growth factors are not present). The concentration of AFP in the medium was first detected on day 8, at a concentration of 3.4 ng/ml, and increased to 22.8 ng/ml by day 15. The concentration of ALB in the medium was 0.2 micro g/ml on day 11, and increased to 2.2 micro g/ml by day 15. ALB-positive cells under ICC manifest morphological structures were consistent with normal mouse hepatocytes. The differentiation ratio of hepatocytes in the ES cell differentiation system was 30% on day 15 (significantly lower withou展开更多
