Abstract excerpt
Primary cultures of normal human neonatal thyroid follicular cells were transfected with a plasmid expressing a temperature-sensitive (tsA58) mutant of SV40 large T antigen. An epithelial cell line, designated B-thy-ts.1, was obtained which showed tight temperature-dependent growth. In sharp contrast to previous such lines, which were derived from adult thyroid, B-thy-ts.1 has retained a well-differentiated...
