Description:
Tumor ascites fluids from guinea pigs, hamsters, and mice contain activity that rapidly increases microvascular permeability. Similar activity is also secreted by these tumor cells and a variety of other tumor cell lines in vitro. The permeability-increasing activity purified from either the culture medium or ascites fluid of one tumor, the guinea pig line 10 hepatocarcinoma, is a 34,000- to 42,000-dalton protein distinct from other known permeability factors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Senger, D R -- Galli, S J -- Dvorak, A M -- Perruzzi, C A -- Harvey, V S -- Dvorak, H F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Feb 25;219(4587):983-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6823562" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
