Motility response of lymphoma cells and non-neoplastic cells to Tat-MBP. Control medium and 20 ng/mL Tat-MBP were used as attractants in the presence of 0.5 μg/mL heparin. Appropriate positive control chemoattractants were used for each single cell line:

F1-a

25 μg/mL fibronectin,

F1-b

conditioned medium of 3T3-NIH cells,

F1-c

5 ng/mL platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Data are expressed as the number of migrated cells ± SD in 20 high-power fields. Data are the mean of three replicates and representative of 1 of 2 experiments minimum.
