  • The magnitude and kinetics of CP-55,940-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation mediated in each subclone were remarkably similar despite a 10-fold difference in receptor expression level between the CB

  • Specifically, CP-55,940 did not significantly increase AKT phosphorylation in the CB 1-low subclone, which expresses the lowest level of receptor of all six subclones that we have selected; it induced a small, but significant increase in AKT phosphorylation in CB

  • D3H2LN cells were obtained from a MDA-MB-231 subclone isolated from a lymph node metastases and induced an increased xenograft tumor growth as compared to parental cells when injected in vivo [15].

  • The widely used line is a subclone (clone 13) of a parental line derived from the kidneys of five unsexed, 1-day-old hamsters.

  • The Jurkat E6. 1 subclone cell line was developed in the 1980s

  • This subclone was injected once more into the mammary fad pad of nude mice to yield a second cell line D3H2LN, harvested from a lymph node metastasis

  • The widely used line is a subclone (clone 13) of a parental line derived from the kidneys of five unsexed, 1-day-old hamsters.

    unknown title 2009

  • D3H2LN cell line was a subclone selected from a MDA-MB-231 stable clone expressing firely luciferase.

  • The widely used line is a subclone (clone 13) of a parental line derived from the kidneys of five unsexed, 1-day-old hamsters.

    unknown title 2009

  • The special features of D3H2LN subclone are that these cells exhibited more important tumor growth than MDA-MB-231 and that when injected in the left heart ventricle, they induced faster metastasis and more multiple tissues sites
