[Experimental teratocarcinoma in mice: a model system for the study of the relationship between cellular surface antigens and embryonic differentiation].

Abstract excerpt

Several cell lines (either of embryonal carcinoma or of differentiated cells derived from teratomas) have been established in vitro from transplantable testicular teratomas. Primitive cell lines, propagated in vitro as embryonal carcinoma have retained the ability of the original tumor to differentiate in vivo or in vitro into must embryonic cell types. Features of this model system for study of early...
