| Research Abstract |
Sensitivity to cisplatin treatment was evaluated for six germ cell tumor cell lines including PA-1 (ATCC, CRL-1572), NEC8 (HSRRB, JCRB0250), NCCIT (ATCC, CRL-2073), Tera1 (ATCC, HTB-105), NTERA2 (ATCC, CRL-1973) and T3M-3 (RIKEN, RCMI018). After 24 hours treatment of cisplatin. PA1. NTERA2 and NCCIT showed high. T3M-3 and Tera1 showed moderate, and NEC8 showed low sensitivities. All the glioma cell lines except for SF188 showed low sensitivities to cisplatin
All of the six germ cell tumor cell lines were highly sensitive to etoposide, while all the glioma cell lines analyzed were not
RT-PCR analyses could not reveal expression of glycosyl-phosphatidulinositol-anchored molecule-like protein (GML) in all the cell lines analyzed
One of the ten surgical specimens of intracranial germ cell tumors showed weak expression of GML.
It is not likely that GML plays a major role in regulating chemosensitivity of germ cell tumors
