Characterization of a Panel of Cell Lines Derived From Urothelial Neoplasms: Genetic Alterations, Growth In Vivo and the Relationship of Adenoviral Mediated Gene Transfer to Coxsackie Adenovirus Receptor Expression

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Cell lines have become an essential component for the investigation of cancer. We have developed a panel of cell lines derived from human urothelial cancers and we describe some of their important characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten human urothelial cancer cell lines were characterized by their growth in athymic nude mice, CAR expression and their susceptibility to adenoviral mediated transfer of...
