Title Permanent cell line established from rat tumour cells transformed in vivo by SR-RSV.
Citation Gen. Comp. Pathol. 28:31-40(1991)
Abstract A cell line from RSV virus-induced rat tumour, strain Schmidt-Ruppin (SR-RSV) was established. The line consists of two morphologically different types of cells -round or polygonal- with strongly expressed growth properties. The time for duplication of the cell population is about 48 h. The cells proliferate in a medium with low concentration of normal bovine serum. The line exibits an abnormal karyotype - more of the cells possess hypotetraploidal number of chromosomes as well as one marker chromosome. The above-mentioned line is not virus producing siniilary to other virus- transformed mammalian cell lines. However, when inoculated in vivo the cells of the line induce tumour growth in chicken.
Cell lines CVCL_0J67; LSR-SF (SR)
