Cells of rhabdomyosarcoma PA-23 tumor clones with high and low metastatic potential differ by activity of lysosomal sialidase

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2008 Mar;145(3):355-7. doi: 10.1007/s10517-008-0090-x.

Abstract

We studied activity of lysosomal sialidase in cells of rhabdomyosarcoma PA-23 tumor clones with high and low metastatic potential. Low activity of lysosomal sialidase was found in clones characterized by high metastatic potential.
