Abstract excerpt
We have established a multipotent clonal cell line, named MEB5, from embryonic mouse forebrains after the infection of a retrovirus carrying E7 oncogene of human papillomavirus type 16. MEB5 cells proliferated in serum-free, epidermal growth factor (EGF)-supplemented medium. They expressed markers for neural precursor cells (nestin, A2B5, and RC1) and did not express markers for neurons (class III beta-tubulin),...
