“…Such a negative message diverged first of all from our own data regarding the MF-changes found in cell-cycle kinetics (Eremenko et al, 1997), membrane fluidity (Volpe et al, 1998), macrophage apoptosis (Fanelli et al, 1999) and macrophage defence (Volpe, 2003). The MF-independence of Hb expression, established herewith, diverged moreover from a number of other observations: the action of AC MFs was suggested for the production of ras p21 in CCRF-CEM (Phillips, 1993;Phillips et al, 1993) and β-galactosidase in rat pheochromocytoma (Ohtsu et al, 1995) cells; the Figure 7. CGC-dependent biosynthetic rate of total protein in FL cells maintained in the absence of MF in a MSR.…”
