Production of Infectious Hepatitis C Virus by Well-Differentiated, Growth-Arrested Human Hepatoma-Derived Cells
27 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been shown to induce the differentiation of primary hepatocytes in vitro. When actively dividing poorly differentiated human hepatoma-derived (Huh7) cells were cultured in the presence of 1% DMSO, cells became cytologically differentiated and transitioned into a nondividing state, characterized by the induction of hepatocyte-specific genes. Moreover, these cells were highly...
