title: Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analysis of Syrian hamster embryo cells: morphological transformation is not cell type specific.
abstract: Studies were conducted to investigate the protein phenotype of normal and morphologically transformed Syrian hamster embryo (SHE) cells. Based upon two-dimensional gel protein phenotype analysis, we conclude that (i) SHE cells are a mixture of multiple cell types including mesenchymal and epithelial cells and (ii) several cell types present in the SHE cell population can be morphologically transformed by a variety of genotoxic and non-genotoxic carcinogens.
