Transplantable tumor cell line derived from a spontaneous fibrosarcoma in a gerbil.
A cultured tumor cell line was derived from a spontaneous fibrosarcoma in a gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus). The cell line consistently produced large tumors with a high incidence of metastases in gerbils of all ages and in both sexes.
