Modulation of RAB5A early endosome trafficking in response to KRas mediated macropinocytic fluxes in pancreatic cancer cells.

abstract：:This study examines the influence of insoluble matrix components of glioma (astrocytoma) cells on LPS-mediated inducible nitric oxide (NO)/NO synthase (iNOS) induction in microglia cells. Insoluble matrix components prepared from C6 rat glioma cells strongly suppressed iNOS induction and subsequent NO release induced ...
