<p>Disclosed is a method of reducing or inhibiting the tumorigenicity of a tumor cell in which a vector including a nucleotide sequence encoding a differentiation factor receptor, or a polypeptide portion thereof, is transferred to the tumor cell such that the nucleotide sequence is expressed. Tumorigenicity is monitored by cell growth and colony formation in a semi-soft medium, a reduction in proliferation being indicative of the reduction or inhibition of tumorigenicity of the treated tumor cell.</p> |
