Summary of EphA2-overexpressing MCF-10A cells
The subcellular localization and P-Tyr content of EphA2 in control (vector) and EphA2-overexpressing MCF-10A cells are summarized. Also shown is a summary of the behaviors of the two cell types as measured in the presence of absence of soluble ligand (0.5 μg/ml EA1). | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Subcellular localization | P-Tyr content | Soft agar colonization | Behavior in 3dRBMa | |
Vector | Cell-cell contacts | High | Negative | Benign |
EphA2 | Membrane ruffles | Low | High | Aggressive (stellate) |
EphA2+EA1 | Membrane ruffles | High | Low | Benign |
