ABSTRACT:
A process for constitutively producing murine IL-2 from hybridoma cells generated by fusing nitrogen stimulated malignant murine cells with drug sensitive murine thymoma driver cells. A fusing agent is used to fuse the two parent cells together. After fusion, the hybrid cells are cultured in vitro in a supplemented, serum containing tissue culture medium to thereby constitutively produce IL-2. The medium also includes a group of suppressing compounds which will prevent unfused driver cells from replicating, and feeder cells used to nurture the growth of competent hybrid cells.
