Abstract excerpt
To create muscle cell lines that conditionally differentiate in vitro we introduced a temperature-sensitive SV40 T antigen by retroviral infection into rat aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and neonatal heart-derived cells. After G418 selection cell lines isolated were characterized at permissive (33 degrees C) and non-permissive (39 degrees C) temperatures. [3H]Thymidine uptake showed tht progression through the...
