Description
Derived from pituitary gland of Wistar-Furth rats. The cells secrete growth hormone at a rate of 1µg/ml cell protein/day. Re-inoculation of cloned cells back to Wistar-Furth rats results in a marked increase in body weight and stimulation of linear growth in both intact and hypophysectomized animals independent of rat tumour size.
