Abstract:
The effect of three lectins, Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA II), concanavalin agglutinin (ConA), and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), on KK-47 bladder cancer cell line was studied, RCA II showed effective inhibition of H3-uridine and H3-thymidine uptake by KK-47. ConA showed a stimulatory effect in all three concentrations used. WGA also showed stimulatory effect, but it was less pronounced than ConA.
