Characterisation of human thyroid epithelial cells immortalised in vitro by simian virus 40 DNA transfection.

Abstract:

:Human primary thyroid follicular epithelial cells were transfected with a plasmid containing an origin-defective SV40 genome (SVori-) to produce several immortal cell lines. Two of the 10 cell lines analysed expressed specific features of thyroid epithelial function (iodide-trapping and thyroglobulin production). These two lines were characterised in detail and found to be growth factor-independent, capable of anchorage-independent growth at low frequency but non-tumorigenic in nude mice. These differentiated, These differentiated, partially transformed cell lines were shown to be suitable for gene transfer at high frequency using simple coprecipitation techniques.
