Abstract excerpt
To facilitate the study of the molecular events underlying the development of optic-nerve-derived oligodendrocytes and their growth-factor-related signal transduction events, we immortalized perinatal rat optic nerve cells with a temperature-sensitive simian virus 40 large T-antigen, carrying the tsA58 and U19 mutations, via a retrovirus vector. The line, tsU19-9, was selected on the basis of the expression of...
