Increase in activity and level of pp60c-src in progressive stages of human colorectal cancer.
Open accessAbstract
Activation of the tyrosine kinase of the c-src gene product, pp60c-src, has been shown to occur in nearly every primary colorectal carcinoma, and is found as early as in polyps of high malignant potential. However, no studies have addressed potential pp60c-src changes which occur during progression. To examine this question, we have studied kinase activity and protein levels in 7 colonic polyps, 19 primary lesions, and 19 liver metastases relative to normal colonic mucosa. Significant increases in tyrosine kinase activity were seen as early as in colonic polyps of high malignant potential. Further increases were observed in activity and level in primary tumors. However, the greatest increases in activity and protein levels were observed in liver metastases. Additionally, six metastatic lesions were obtained in which synchronous primary tumor was resected. In each of these liver metastases, pp60c-src activity and level were significantly increased relative to the corresponding primary tumor, as well as to normal colonic mucosa. Our results demonstrate that progression of colon primary tumors to liver metastases correlates with increased pp60c-src kinase activity and protein level.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
