General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction overexpression of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase in rodent fibroblasts leads to aggressive transformants (Amdc-s cells) that have high invasive capacity in nude mice, invading rapidly from the subcutaneous injection site into the peritoneal cavity and its organs. Amdc-s-induced tumors show chaotic neovascularization, with abundant pleomorphic vessel-like structures that have noncontiguous or totally missing laminin (basement membrane) and CD31 (endothelial cell) immunoreactivity Homo sapiens
physiological function S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of polyamines essential for cell proliferation Homo sapiens
