Research Abstract |
Increased nm23 gene expression has been reported to reduce metaplastic potential in breast carcinoma. In contrast, there are several report that the expression of nm23 increases following the tumor progression in colon adenocarcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma. We have transfected rat nm23 cDNA into mouse adenoma cells-Colon26. Overexpression of c-myc and significant reduction of metastatic potential were observed in the clone of transfected nm23. But there was no significant correlation between nm23 expression and cell growth.
