Transforming growth factors from a human tumor cell: characterization of transforming growth factor beta and identification of high molecular weight transforming growth factor alpha.

TL;DR: The intracellular TGF-beta from the human tumor cell line was similar in all respects tested to normal human placenta and purified to homogeneity as judged by a single peak after reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and a single band on a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dichotomies in cancer research: some suggestions for a new synthesis

TL;DR: The purpose of this article is to elaborate on fundamental dichotomies between traditional and revisionist viewpoints and then to attempt a synthesis of these contrasting perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

2-cyano-3,12-dioxooleana-1,9(11)-diene-28-oic acid disrupts microtubule polymerization: a possible mechanism contributing to apoptosis.

TL;DR: CDDO seems to initiate apoptosis early in M phase, possibly through interactions with a hydrophobic site on β-tubulin, and may also involve a reversible 1,4-addition with a protein sulfhydryl group.
