Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Steel factor and leukaemia inhibitory factor on murine primordial germ cells in culture

TL;DR: It is shown that leukaemia inhibitory factor (also known as differentiation inhibitory activity)17,18, a factor secreted by STO fibroblasts, can stimulate proliferation of primordial germ cells in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amino-acid substitutions at codon 13 of the N-ras oncogene in human acute myeloid leukaemia.

TL;DR: DNAs from four out of five patients with acute myeloid leukaemia tested by an in vivo selection assay in nude mice using transfected mouse NIH 3T3 cells were found to contain an activated N-ras oncogene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Support of human hematopoiesis in long-term bone marrow cultures by murine stromal cells selectively expressing the membrane-bound and secreted forms of the human homolog of the steel gene product, stem cell factor.

TL;DR: It is reported that stable stromal cell transfectants can differentially process the two forms of human SCF protein product, and both soluble SCF and membrane-bound SCF are active in increasing the number of human progenitor cells in the context of stromAL cell cultures, although in a qualitatively different manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Involvement of the Small GTP-binding Protein Rho in lbc Oncogene Function

TL;DR: Results strongly indicate that the lbc oncogene encodes a specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rho and causes cellular transformation through activation of the Rho signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of the Small GTPase Rho in Integrin-mediated Activation of Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase

TL;DR: Results show that Rho is involved in the integrin-dependent activation of MAP kinase, and enhanced and partially mimicked activation of Erk2 by plating on fibronectin.
