Establishment and characterization of 12 uterine cervical-carcinoma cell lines: Common sequence variation in theE7 gene of HPV-16-positive cell lines

Abstract: Carcinoma of the uterine cervix is one of the most common neoplasms in women, and about 90% of all cervical carcinomas are epidemiologically associated with infection by high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) such as types 16, 18, 31 and 33 (Zur Hausen, 1991).Because most available cervical-cancer cell lines were initiated more than 20 years ago (Spence et al., 1988), they have been extensively passaged in culture for hundreds of times in uncontrolled growth conditions, and this might have resulted in changes… Show more

“…Most of these cell lines were isolated more than 10 years ago, however, and have been passaged many times in vitro in uncontrolled growth conditions. Therefore, they could have lost their phenotypic heterogeneity, like cervical cancer cell lines commonly observed in primary tumor lines (reviewed by Ku et al, 1997). The use of pancreatic carcinoma cell lines with a low passage number would solve this problem.…”

“…In another study, alterations at eight dinucleotide loci mapping to six different chromosomes were found in five out of 82 cervical cancers (Helland et al, 1997;Kersemaekers et al, 1998a). In another 51 cases, mutator phenotypes were detected in four cases (Ku J-L et al, 1977;Ku W-H et al, 1997). This instability affected to one or two alleles at one or few loci.…”

The tumorigenicity of these cells in nude animals correlated very well with instability and loss of genetic material from human chromosome 3p (Montgomery et al, 1995;Steenbergen et al, 1996), 10p, 11q and 18q regions (Montgomery et al, 1995;Steenbergen et al, 1995Steenbergen et al, , 1996.…”

“…Appropriate amounts of ®ne neoplastic tissue fragments were seeded into 25-cm 2¯a sks. Tumour cells were initially cultured in AR5 medium, which has proved useful in establishing human cancer cell lines [18,19] and the composition of which was described previously [18]. After being established, the cultures were maintained in RPMI 1640 (Gibco/BRL, Grand Island, NY) supplemented with 10% heatinactivated fetal bovine serum.…”
