## Abstract Chondrocytes are useful as a cell culture system for studying arthritic degeneration in tissue engineered cartilage. However, primary chondrocytes have short in vitro lifespan and rapid shift of collagen phenotype. In this study, we used a high dosage of retroviral vector LXSN16E6E7 to

## 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
## Abstract hMSCs derived from bone marrow are useful as a species‐specific cell culture system for studying cell lineage differentiation and tissue remodeling. However, hMSCs usually have a short __in vitro__ life span due to replicative senescence. We therefore used a high dose of retroviral vect
## Abstract The ability of the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV‐16) E6 or E7 gene to induce immortalization of normal human embryonic fibroblast WHE‐7 cells was examined. WHE‐7 cells at 9 population doublings (PD) were infected with retrovirus vectors encoding either HPV‐16 E6 or E7 alone or both
