Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. A and B, Stem cell factor (SCF) and c-kit immunostaining in normal pancreatic tissues. A duct showing hyperplastic features exhibits strong c-kit-immunoreactivity (A) and it is surrounded by c-kit–positive (A) and SCF-positive (B) inflammatory cells. C, Immunostaining performed with the highly specific anti-tryptase antibody reveals that most of the inflammatory cells described around large and hyperplastic ducts are mast cells (C). Scale bar 25 m.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. Western blot analysis of SCF, c-kit, and tryptase in normal pancreas and pancreatic cancer samples, as described in “Materials and Methods.” The highly specific anti-SCF antibody detected a single band of approximately 45 kDa in the cancer samples. The anti-c-kit antibody detected one band of approximately 80 kDa in two of the cancer samples, and a band of about 125 kDa in a third cancer sample. The anti-tryptase antibody detected two bands of approximately 30 and 35 kDa in two pancreatic cancer samples, and a single, intermediate-sized band in one cancer and one normal pancreas sample.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. Western blot analysis of SCF and c-kit in TAKA-1 cells and in six pancreatic cancer cell lines. TAKA cells did not express SCF, whereas SCF was expressed by Bx-PC-3, MiaPaCa-2, and T3M4 cell lines, the most intense band being present in MiaPaCa-2 cells. The anti-c-kit antibody detected two bands of approximately 80 kDa and one band of 125 kDa in TAKA cells and two bands of approximately 80 kDa in all the cancer cell lines; Capan-1 showed the highest c-kit expression levels.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 8. Specificity of the effect of SCF on TAKA-1 cells. TAKA-1 cells were incubated in the absence or presence of SCF (100 ng/ml), anti-c-kit antibody (5 g/ml), or the combination of both reagents. MTT assay was performed after 72 hours. Percent growth inhibition was determined by comparison with control cell growth. * p 0.05.
