Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Epithelial cell strains, designated NAL, have been established from normal lungs of adult female Balb/c mice. The ultrastructural characteristics, effect of dexamethasone on cellular morphology and proliferation rate, and the cytoskeletal protein pattern of NAL suggests that these cell strains may be related to a urethane-induced mouse lung adenoma cell strain NUL and to a metastasizing mouse lung tumour cell line CMT. NAL exhibited no anchorage-independent growth under normal conditions, however extensive passaging in the presence of 5 X 10(-6)M dexamethasone resulted in a colony forming efficiency in soft agar of 8.4% at passage number 30.
