We have previously demonstrated the overexpression and hormone-independent activation of the IGF-IR in primary breast cancers [ 42 ] . Similar overexpression of the IGF-IR and the ligands IGF-I and IGF-II have been seen in human gliomas and astrocytomas [ 43 44 45 46 ] . Because of the important role for the IGF-IR in cell survival, we investigated whether a dominant negative IGF-IR could inhibit growth of the U87 glioma.
We used C6 glioma cells, transfected to stably express the mouse δ-OR, to examine ERK activation by δ-opioids in a line that does not express the EGFR to confirm our results obtained in the receptor down-regulation experiments.
Over-expression of PDGFR has been reported in a variety of human tumors including glioma and glioblastoma, pancreatic and colonic cancers, breast, bone and ovarian tumors [ 11 ] . In normal cells, expression of PDGFR can be seen in the fibroblasts and the smooth muscle cells in the lung and airway [ 12 ] . There is so far to our knowledge no report to link the expression of PDGFR to lung cancer.
In C6 glioma cells that express the mouse δ-OR, DSLET produced a concentration-dependent increase in the appearance of phospho-ERK 1 and 2. DSLET-mediated ERK activation in C6-δ-OR cells was completely inhibited by either pre-treatment with PTX or naltrindole (data not shown).
SMI-31 mAB labeled F98 rat glioma nuclei and cytoplasm with equal or greater avidity than in SH-SY5Y cells (Figure 1D).
