Long-term cultivation of amphibian melanophores. In vitro ageing and spontaneous transformation to a continuous cell line.

Abstract:

:Pure melanophore populations isolated from the tail skin of the tadpole, Rana catesbeiana, were mass cultured for a period of 2-3 years. All cell lines of amphibian melanophores studied exhibited growth crisis (in vitro ageing) followed by spontaneous transformation to a continuous cell line, as shown by changes in growth characteristics in mass culture and in clone culture, by the appearance of the cells, and by measurements of cell volumes. Even after becoming a continuous cell line, amphibian melanophores continued to have a diploid chromosome number (2n = 26) in three of four cell lines examined. The chromosome mode in one cell line, however, changed to thirty. Measurement of melanin dispersion after the addition of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone suggested that the mechanism for melanin dispersion in melanophores changed during in vitro ageing.
