“…The expression of the last two properties was particularly interesting, since these two discrete and biochemically unrelated cell properties might indeed be expected to be selected in vivo independently of each other. The relation of PGE-releasing activity to spontaneous MA was also interesting to evaluate in a large number of selected STHE cell lines, since this was first observed in cells of one highly metastatic variant of the STHE strain (Kluchareva et al, 1988).…”

“…0 ml) and grown on the bottom of 3 (for each sample) scintillation flasks for 20 hr at 37°C. Incorporation of 3H-TdR was determined in nuclei of control cells (considered as 100%) and of cells treated with different doses of PGE-releasing activity of each subline was determined by a biological method based on the original data of Kluchareva et al (1988). These show that close contact between NK cells and highly metastatic variants of STHE cells (but not parental STHE cells) for 20 min rapidly leads to release of PGE into the mixed-cell culture medium.…”

“…On the one hand, experiments with cultured animal tissues showed that the contact of effector cells with tumor ceils stimulates the release of PGE from the surface of tumor cells and lowers the cytotoxic activity of immunocompetent cells [3,4]. This indicates that PGE plays an important role in the mechanisms whereby tumor is protected against the cytotoxic effect of immunocompetent cells [9].…”

“…Immunocompetent cells are involved in the processes of tumor metastasizing [3,9]. PGE is known to inhibit the cytostatic activity of effector cells (natural killer cells, macrophages, and neutrophils), thus promoting metastasizing [4].…”
