Description
Established from a small squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue of a 32 year-old male patient. STNMP stage 1, well differentiated, node negative tumour. Aneuploid- dual G-/G1 peak on cell cycle analysis by flow cytometry. Mutant p53, codon 244 exon 7; G to T; wild type K-, N- and Ha-ras. Tumourigenic in athymic nude mice, both by subcutaneous injection and injection into the floor of the mouth. By short tandem repeat-PCR analysis the Y chromosome could not be detected in this cell line when tested at Glow Biologics. It cell line is a known phenomenon that SSC cell lines can lose their Y chromosome.
