Two enzyme forms of alkaline phosphatase have been partially purified from the medium spent for the culture of HUH-6 clone 5 cells, which were originally derived from hepatoblastoma tissue. The purification methods used are ammonium sulfate precipitation, ethanol precipitation, diethylaminoethyl
The MHB-2 cell line, established from a mouse hepatoblastoma (HB), was subjected to the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for evaluation of gene expression related to cell differentiation. RNAs for c-kit, CD34, thy-1, albumin, cytokeratin (CK) 8, 18 and 19 could be detected,
Isozyme patterns of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were electrophoretically examined in human cell lines derived from one hepatoblastoma, five hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and two cholangiocellular carcinomas. Most of the cell lines tested had a liver-type ALP isozyme. In addition, an abnormal ALP
Many tumour cells express both Fas and its ligand (FasL) on their surface and it has remained a mystery why such cells do not simply kill themselves. It remains to be determined whether Fas and FasL are expressed in human hepatoblastomas and if so, what is responsible for the possible Fas resistance
Pleural effusion, secondary to a metastasis from a malignant hepatoblastoma, was diagnosed in a 3-year-old Appaloosa gelding. Severe hemorrhagic transudate in both pleural cavities resulted in acute onset of labored breathing, tachypnea, tachycardia, and jugular vein pulsation. Results of
The cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)-associated protein phosphatase (KAP) is a human dual-specificity protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates Cdk2 on a conserved threonine residue, T160, in a cyclin dependent manner. Several aberrant KAP transcripts with characteristic deletion regions have been
Osteoblasts express high levels of liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase (LBK AP), an enzyme critical for bone formation. Other tissues and cell types generally express much lower levels of LBK AP and correspondingly lower levels of mRNA. In light of our early observations that the human LBK AP
OBJECTIVE
Butyrate, a natural product of colonic bacterial flora, has been reported to increase the activities of a number of enzymes, including alkaline phosphatase, (ALP) in several cancer cell lines. However, butyrate-induced ALP gene expression in human hepatoma cells has not been previously
Calycopterin is a flavonoid compound isolated from Dracocephalum kotschyi that has multiple medical uses, as an antispasmodic, analgesic, anti-hyperlipidemic, and immunomodulatory agents. However, its biological activity and the mechanism of action are poorly investigated. Herein, we investigated
Lipin 1 plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, and liver. Its physiological role involves two cellular functions: regulation of phosphatidate phosphatase activity and regulation of fatty acid oxidation. In this study, we have demonstrated that lipin 1 gene
In order to study in vitro the toxic and metabolic effects of antipsychotic drugs (AP) on the cells of hepatic origin we used human hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2. We cultured HepG2 cells in the presence of two AP of the first and second generations (haloperidol and olanzapine, respectively) adding
Glycogen storage disease type I (GSD-I) is an inherited disorder that is due to a glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) deficiency. There have been recent reports of hepatocellular tumors in adults with this disease. Hepatic adenoma is the most common tumor described but others, including hepatocellular
The human insulin receptor substrate-1 (hIRS-1) is a key intracellular protein involved in various cytokine signaling pathways associated with cell growth. We have previously demonstrated that stable transfection and overexpression of hIRS-1 in human hepatoblastoma cells in vitro leads to the
Epidemiological, clinical, biochemical and topographic features of primary hepatic cancer (PHC) were reviewed retrospective and prospectively in this study. This review consisted of 76 patients from 1971 to 1990. Forty nine males and 27 females. The mean age was 66.1 +/- 11.7 years. Hepatocellular
The cytotoxicity of the pro-oxidant fungicide dichlone (2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone), to the human endothelial cell line, ECV304, was evaluated. The sensitivity of these cells to dichlone was intermediate between that of human hepatoblastoma HepG2 cells (least sensitive) and that of human
