Through these effects, the PERY peptide reduced the proliferation of
several (but not all) cancer
cell lines in culture and inhibited the growth of a
human breast cancer xenograft in mice.
Slashing the amount of HSF1 in
several lines of
human cancer
cells diminished growth and survival.
During the last
several years, research efforts with
human cell lines revealed that the genomic loci encoding tRNAs give rise to shorter tRNA fragments («tRFs»).
In a statement put on the Web this morning, NIH reported that all 64
lines «show characteristics of stem
cell morphology» and have undergone
several population doublings, and most of them have demonstrated all the protein markers «known to be associated with
human embryonic stem
cells.»
The high quality of the new
lines should make them appealing for clinical trials, says Braude, but it could take
several years before the
cells make their way into
humans — if they ever do.
The authors studied a standard panel of 60 established
human tumor
cell lines representing nine different
human cancers, as well as
several specimens of
human primary ovarian cancer.
The self - renewable capacity of these
cells, their ability to differentiate into
several tissue progenitors (neural, mesenchymal stem
cells...), and the possibility to work with mutated
cell lines define
human stem
cells as a good basis for screening compounds libraries in order to discover new potential drugs for monogenic diseases.
I wanted to inactivate the gene BRAF (a kinase implicated in
several human cancers) in A549
cells (a
human lung cancer
cell line), armed only with viruses obtained through Addgene's viral service and the methods sections of scientific articles (gasp).
(a kinase implicated in
several human cancers) in A549

Flavopiridol inhibits
several cellular kinases and has demonstrated cytostatic and cytotoxic activity in vitro and in vivo in numerous
human tumor
cell lines and xenograft models (including
human breast, prostate, and lung carcinoma) at clinically achievable concentrations.
This effect on
cell survival was not endothelial
cell - specific, since IC50 values for kahweol treatment of
several human tumoral
cell lines were similar to those obtained for HUVEC (results not shown).
Important features of XMRV biology include (1) tropism for a variety of
cell lines, including prostate cancer DU145 and LNCaP
cells [27], [43], [48], and
human neural
cell types [57], (2) adaptations that promote growth in prostate epithelium and
human - derived prostate cancer
cell lines including an androgen response element in the promoter region [58] and downregulation of APOBEC3G [59], and (3) cellular effects with potential oncogenic properties including increased tumor aggressiveness mediated by downregulation of p27 [60] and differential regulation of
several microRNAs [61].
