We have previously shown that the protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid (OA) induces caspase-3 activation and apoptosis in CHP-100 human neuroepithelioma cells.
To explore the role of SCF in neuroblastoma, we studied five neuroblastoma lines (IMR-5, SK-N-SH, SK-N-BE, AF8, and SJ-N-KP) and the neuroepithelioma line CHP-100.
