## Abstract The ability of the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPVβ16) E6 or E7 gene to induce immortalization of normal human embryonic fibroblast WHEβ7 cells was examined. WHEβ7 cells at 9 population doublings (PD) were infected with retrovirus vectors encoding either HPVβ16 E6 or E7 alone or both
## BACKGROUND. The exact pathogenesis for prostate cancer is not known. Progress made in prostate cancer research has been slow, largely due to the lack of suitable in vitro models. Here, we report our work on the immortalization of a human prostate epithelial cell line and show that it can be use
