Abstract excerpt
GH cells are a widely used cell strain for the investigation of mechanisms regulating hormone release and synthesis. This report identifies two inducible phenotypes of the GH4 clone (epithelioid and motile) which may extend studies of this well-characterized cell line to different stages of pitui...
