Synonyms: | GPH1豚鼠心肌细胞 |
Background: | originally described as a glioma cell line established from the tumor material of brain from a 55-year-old man with a mixed astro-oligodendroglioma (grade II/III); however, DNA fingerprinting at DSMZ showed clearly that this cell line is in reality a derivative of the human glioblastoma cell line U-343-MG; described in the literature to express neuroepithelial markers GFAP, vimentin and S-100 protein as well as pp60C-SRC, but not the neuro-specific variant pp60C-SRCN and to express neuropoietic factors CNTF, LIF and their receptors; LIF and oncostatin M induce growth inhibition and differentiation |
