Effects of Lipoproteins on Tumor Cell Growth: Stimulatory Effects of High Density Lipoproteins on Proliferation of HeLa Cells@@@高比重リポ蛋白 (HDL) の HeLa 細胞増殖促進効果

The current studies of the growth altering effects of plasma lipoproteins on cultured cells, such as vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells, have shown conflicting results in various experimentals models. No informations are available about the effects of plasma lipoproteins on the growth of cultured tumor cells. In the present study, the human tumor cells used were HeLa cells, which were cultured with human lipoproteins and the growth of tumor cells was investigated.The human lipoproteins, low density lipoproteins (LDL: 1.019
