ABSTRACT:
A non-transformed cell line is produced by treating BALB/c derived 10E2 cells with 5-bromodeoxyuridine and 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine to produce thymidine kinaseless cells which upon multiple cloning show a flat epitheloid appearance indicative of their non-transforming potential. These cells are used to determine the tumorigenic transforming potential of any gene by introducing the gene into the cells of the non-transformed cell line along with the Herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene which serves as a vehicle for cotransfection. The transformation of the cells is indicative of tumorigenic potential.
