Abstract excerpt
To study hormone responsive genes in differentiated epithelial cells and as a model for endometrial carcinoma, lines were established from primary rat endometrial cells by infection with replication-defective retroviruses carrying oncogenes and the selectable gene neo. The initial step involved immortalization through the large T antigen of SV40 to generate a line we designate RENT4, or with the E1a gene of...
