abstract：:A method for isolation of C-cells from rat fetuses was developed, and the morphological plasticity of the cells in primary culture systems was tested. Thyroid-parathyroid-ultimobranchial body (UB) complexes from 16-day rat fetuses were treated with 0.1% collagenase and 1000 PU/ml Dispase at 37 degrees C for 1 h. After...

Is this a fortuitous coincidence, or could CTL be inducing lysis by activation of the suicide signal? In this report we demonstrate that CTL-mediated target cell death...
