M. Cervello et al., GAMMA-ENOLASE EXPRESSION AS EARLY MARKER OF NEURONAL DIFFERENTIATION OF MURINE NEUROBLASTOMA-CELLS N-115, Cytotechnology, 11, 1993, pp. 167-169
In this study we determined the levels of gamma enolase mRNA in mouse
neuroblastoma cell line N-115 at early period of induction of differen
tiation by serum withdrawal. The expression of gamma enolase was exami
ned by Northern blot analysis of total RNA extracted from cells induce
d for different lengths of time. We found a 3-fold increase in the lev
el of gamma enolase mRNA after 24 hours of induction of differentiatio
n and higher levels were detected in cells induced for longer time, re
aching a 10-fold increase after four days.
