- W398946230 abstract "Glioblastoma multiforme is a malignant brain tumor characterized by heterogeneity.Interactions between heterogeneous tumor cells are supposed to affect the behavior of awhole tumor cell population. In this thesis an in vitro model system of clonal glioma celllines originating from one glioblastoma tumor was used, and the behavior of cells incocultures was studied and compared the behavior of cells grown separately. The resultsindicate the presence of two types of interactions. In one, paracrine signals acted via extra-cellular media. This was associated with increased growth of the whole co-culture followedby a selective force driving one clone to dominance. In the other type, the cell clones grewside by side without signs of paracrine signalling, in a balance resulting in an increasedterminal cell density. Further investigations focused on mechanisms of interactions in thiscombination.Two cell clones were chosen, a GFAP+ and a GFAP-, for further experiments. Withdifferential display PCR it was possible to investigate their specific gene expressionpatterns. Seventeen cDNA fragments were differentially expressed, among them twocorresponded to known transcription factors, ATF3 and prox-1, one to a cytoskeletal protein,α-tropomyosin. The collection also contained eight ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tags) wherethe corresponding genes are unknown at present. Expression of the isolated sequences werealso analyzed in a panel of 12 different glioma cell lines and the results illustrate thecomplexity of gene expression and of tumor heterogeneity. Genes, the expression levels ofwhich were modulated in co-cultures and/or were cell density dependent, were alsoidentified.PDGF B is suggested to play a role in sarcomas. The gene codes for an mRNA transcriptwith long UTRs, parts of which are deleted in the homologous oncogene v-sis. The UTRs ofPDGF B mRNAs in human sarcomas were investigated for deletions similar to v-sis thatmight result in increased protein levels. A new transcript variant was identified, lacking a149 base region in the 3'UTR, but its presence was not associated with increased levels ofprotein. Alterations in the 5'UTR were found more likely to be associated with increasedprotein levels." @default.
