Response of various cell lines to Escherichia coli toxic products.
Seven cell lines were compared with Y-1 and Vero cells for morphological response to E. coli toxic products. FL and WI-38, like Y-1 and Vero, responded to heat-labile enterotoxin. FL, HEp-2, HeLa, and BGM, like Vero but not Y-1, responded to heat-labile cytotoxin. FL was comparable to Vero in sensitivity to these two toxic products.
