b promoter and a temperature-sensitive simian virus 40 large T antigen. The functional expression of the SV40 large T antigen is induced by culturing the cells in vitro in medium containing IFN γ at a temperature permissive (33°C). At a non-permissive temperature (37°C-39°C) or when cultured without IFN γ over 3 passages, the cells cease to proliferate.

The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow II medium available at abm . To make the completed growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 5%, 5 U/ml murine IFN-γ and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution to a final concentration of 1%.
Carbon dioxide (CO₂): 5%, Temperature: 37.0°C.
abm does not recommend to use heat-inactivated FBS for cell culture unless specified otherwise.

Quality Control:

Immunohistochemical techniques were utilized detect keratin 18 and E-cadherin to demonstrate the epithelial nature of cells.
