Graph. Phorbol ester and concanavalin A induced up-regulation of TGF-a in MDA MB 231 cells. TGF-a is synthesized and transported to the cell surface as a membrane-anchored precursor (proTGF-a) that is converted to the soluble form by proteolytic cleavage. ProTNF-a cleavage is activated in response to tumor-promoting phorbol ester. Concanavalin A is a mitogen known to up-regulate cytokine production in numerous cell lines.


Standard Curve. The mean signal of each standard run in replicates of three in eight assays using two different lots of plates and two different lots of detector antibody.
