Abstract excerpt
We have studied the expression of cell polarity in hybrids between two rat thyroid epithelial cells: FRT and FRTL-5. FRT cells are polarized but do not express tissue-specific properties, FRTL-5 are unpolarized and express many thyroid-specific genes. A and express many thyroid-specific genes. A pool of 170 hybrid clones and five independent clones were characterized. The chromosome complement was that expected...
