WIF-B cells were generated previously to obtain a good in vitro model expressing the structural and functional polarity of hepatocytes. Here we tested the stability and the strength of the WIF-B polarized phenotype. WIF-B cells stayed polarized and formed functional bile canaliculi even after 3 months in culture or after injection in nude mice and culture of the resulting tumors. WIF-B was subcloned and 10,000...
