Transplantation of Y79 cells into rat eyes: an in vivo model of human retinoblastomas.

TL;DR: After intraretinal xenografting, human Y79 retinoblastoma cells retain a highly tumoral nature despite many years of in vitro propagation.

AP2 transcription factor induces apoptosis in retinoblastoma cells.

TL;DR: TFAP2A and TFAP2B, which map to chromosome arm 6p, are expressed in the amacrine and horizontal cells of human retina and it is proposed that inability to differentiate along the amACrine/horizontal cell lineages may underlie retinoblastoma tumor formation.
