  • Volpert and colleagues demonstrated this phenomenon using tumors formed by the human fibrosarcoma line HT1080 in nude mice, and obtained data indicating that it was caused by secretion of TSP-1 by the primary tumor [ 27 ] . Some of the properties attributed to TSP-1 are conflicting, however; TSP-1 can be both adhesive and anti-adhesive in vitro , can stimulate or inhibit angiogenesis, and can inhibit or enhance proteolytic enzyme activity.

  • Heparitinase treatment also inhibited cell adhesion by 25-40%, while chondroitinase ABC treatment did not inhibit cell adhesion to III1-C (not shown).

  • Expression of antisense RNA has long been known to be able to inhibit gene expression in Drosophila and other organisms [ 8, 9, 10, 11, 12].

  • To inhibit any endogenous PP2A activity, which can also dephosphorylate phosphorylase a and thus interfere with PP1 activity measurements, these assays were carried out in the presence of 5 nM okadaic acid, which does not inhibit PP1 activity [ 30 ] . Although reproducible, we observed only modest increases in PP1-specific activity found in lysates from induced cells compared to the uninduced controls (Figure 7).

  • In cats, serotonin antagonists caused a decrease in bladder capacity [ 43 ] however in anesthetized rats, serotonin antagonism did not have an effect on micturition [ 44 ] . Recently, a selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist (WAY-100635) was reported to inhibit bladder contractions in rats [ 45 ] yet another report only observed an increase in the pressure threshold [ 46 ] . Olanzapine and risperidone have only low to modest affinity for the 5-HT1A receptor, and higher affinities for the 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors [ 11 12 ] . Serotonin 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors facilitate pudendal reflexes in the cat [ 47 48 ] , therefore it is possible that antagonism of these receptors may block the EUS in the anesthetized rat.
