TLDR
The system provides a method of selecting cells that have decreased contact inhibition of cell division and may be used to select tumor cells from a population containing a large excess of normal cells.

Characterization of a newly derived human sarcoma cell line (ht-1080)

TL;DR: A tumor cell line was derived from the fibrosarcoma of a 35‐year‐old Caucasian man who died without having received chemotherapy or radiotherapy, and an aberrant karyology with marker chromosomes was present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Establishment of a continuous tumor‐cell line (PANC‐1) from a human carcinoma of the exocrine pancreas

TL;DR: An epithelioid cell line, started from a human pancreatic carcinoma of ductal cell origin, has been maintained in culture for over 2 years and has been subcultured more than 40 times and has a modal number of 63 with three distinct marker chromosomes and a small ring chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular genes analogous to retroviral onc genes are transcribed in human tumour cells

TL;DR: Polyadenylated RNAs of certain human tumour cell lines are shown to contain transcripts related to the cell-derived transforming onc genes of molecularly cloned primate, murine or avian transforming retrovirus genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential expression of the amv gene in human hematopoietic cells.

TL;DR: In this article, total cellular RNAs from a variety of fresh and culture-derived human hematopoietic neoplastic cell types at various stages of differentiation were enriched for poly(A)-containing sequences, fractionated by gel electrophoresis, and hybridized to a cloned DNA probe containing the transforming sequences (v-amv) of avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), a virus known to cause myeloid leukemias in chickens.
Journal ArticleDOI

New chromosome techniques in the study of human neoplasia.

TL;DR: Amethopterin synchronization of bone marrow and lymph node cells makes it possible to obtain well banded and elongated metaphases and prometaphases in the majority of patients with leukemia and lymphoma.

The limited in vitro lifetime of human diploid cell strains

TL;DR: The survival curves obtained with human diploid cell strains are comparable to “multiple-hit” or “ multiple-target” curves obtain with other biological systems where an initial threshold dose is required before an exponential form of the curve is established.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basis for the acquisition of malignant potential by mouse cells cultivated in vitro.

TL;DR: The tissue-culture property that correlates best with tumorigenicity is the loss of contact inhibition of cell division in mouse embryo lines maintained in culture under conditions that minimize cell-cell contact.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two established in vitro cell lines from human mesenchymal tumours

TL;DR: The described cell lines are the first derived from human mesenchymal tumours where the availability of a control fibroblast strain will provide us with opportunities to compare autologous normal and neoplastic human meschymal cells under in vitro conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Susceptibility of human diploid fibroblast strains to transformation by SV40 virus.

TL;DR: A quantitative system has been developed for the study of transformation of human diploid fibroblasts in culture by two oncogenic viruses, SV40 and the E46 strain of adeno 7-SV40 "hybrid" virus.
