Establishment and characterization of two paediatric brain tumour cell lines in vitro.

Rooprai Hk, Abderrahim Merzak, Peter L. Bullock, Pilkington Gj

Well-characterised, established cell lines derived from paediatric brain tumours are rare. The paucity of medulloblastoma cell lines may reflect--at least in part--the differences in cell adhesion molecule expression between the cells of primitive neoplasms of childhood and their better-differentiated adult counterpart neoplasms. …

Hyaluronic acid/CD44H interaction induces cell detachment and stimulates migration and invasion of human glioma cells in vitro

Shahriar Koochekpour, Geoffrey J. Pilkington, Abderrahim Merzak

The mechanisms underlying the invasive properties of gliomas, the major form of intrinsic brain tumours in humans, are poorly understood. We have reported that CD44 plays an important role in this behaviour in vitro. In the present work, we investigated the role …

VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH-FACTOR PRODUCTION IS STIMULATED IN RESPONSE TO GROWTH-FACTORS IN HUMAN GLIOMA-CELLS

Shahriar Koochekpour, Abderrahim Merzak, GJ PILKINGTON

Neovascularization is essential for tumour growth and is mediated by physiological substances produced by tumours. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one such potent angiogenic factor. Human gliomas, the most important class of intrinsic brain tumours, express VEGF both in vivo and …

EXPRESSION OF VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH-FACTOR IN THE CYST FLUID OF HUMAN CEREBRAL GLIOMAS

Shahriar Koochekpour, Peter L. Bullock, AF DEAN, GJ PILKINGTON et autres

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or vascular permeability factor (VPF) has been shown to play a key role in angiogenesis in several solid tumours including human brain neoplasms. Its expression has also been found to be correlated to malignancy in the major …

SYNERGISM BETWEEN GROWTH-FACTORS IN THE CONTROL OF GLIOMA CELL-PROLIFERATION, MIGRATION AND INVASION IN-VITRO

Abderrahim Merzak, Shahriar Koochekpour, Fatima Dkhissi, Stéphane Raynal et autres

Gliomas constitute more than 50% of primary brain tumours in man. Perhaps the most important hallmark of these tumours is their diffuse invasion of the normal brain structures. The biological factors involved in the control of both their proliferation and invasion are, …
