Abstract: | A cell colony (IM95m) that produces hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and interleukin-8 (IL-8) was cloned from gastric cancer cells (IM95 cell line). In culture medium, the highest levels of HGF, VEGF, and IL-8 were about 1.1, 0.9, and 0.17 ng/ml culture medium at 3 d from 10(5) cells. IM95m may be useful in elucidating the role of tumor cells in angiogenesis. |
