Human renal clear cell carcinoma: establishment and characterization of a new cell line (G-2101).
A human cell line has been established from a renal adenocarcinoma rib metastasis of a 58-y-old male. This cell line has been maintained in continuous culture for 20 mo. through more than 50 passages. It displays simultaneous expression of the intermediate filaments cytokeratin and vimentin. Flow cytometric analysis of DNA content reveals a major hyperdiploid population.
