Establishment of a novel fetal ovine heart cell line by spontaneous cell fusion
2022-07-16
Abstract excerpt
We established a unique immortal cell line designated, FOH-SA, by serial passage of fetal ovine heart cells. In a novel phenomenon in cell biology, we demonstrated that the immortalization of the line supervened as a result of spontaneous cellular and nuclear fusion of two morphologically distinct cardiocytes in passage 29. Fused cells gave progeny cells which grew into multicellular filaments. Trypsinization of t...
