Role of TP in cancer cells. (A) Invasion capacity of the various cell lines after 24 h of invasion through an extracellular matrix (50 ng ml−1 matrigel) using the transwell invasion assay. Values are means of at least three independent experiments ±s.e.m. (B) Thymidine phosphorylase enzymatic activity of the various cancer cells. Colo320 had no detectable TP activity. Values are means of at least three independent experiments ±s.e.m. (C) Western blot of cancer cell lines expression of the kinases (phosphorylated) FAK, Akt and p70/S6k in Colo320, Colo320 TP1, RT112, RT112/TP and in HUVEC cells.
