TPA-induced cohort migration of well-differentiated human rectal adenocarcinoma cells: cells move in a RGD-dependent manner on fibronectin produced by cells, and phosphorylation of E-cadherin/catenin complex is induced independently of cell-extracellular matrix interactions
We have already presented a two-dimensional cell motility assay using a highly metastatic variant (L-10) of human rectal adenocarcinoma cell line RCM-1 as a motility model of tumour cells of epithelial origin...

A light and electron microscopic study on complete dissociation of rat ascites hepatoma cells under activation of neutral protease and calcium depletion
A neutral proteasea, which was extracted from rat ascites hepatoma cells and then purified by chromatography using TEAE-cellulose followed by hydroxyapatite (eluted in 0.12 M phosphate buffer), induced an electro...
