Abstract excerpt
Somatic cell hybrid analysis was used to examine the role of recessive cancer genes in tumorigenic transformation in vitro of human uroepithelial cells (HUC). Hybrids between nontumorigenic pseudodiploid SV40-immortalized HUC (SV-HUC) and two aggressive grade III transitional cell carcinomas (TCC) produced in nude mice after in vitro exposure of SV-HUC to 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) were completely suppressed for...
