## Abstract By using irradiated BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts as feeder cells, we obtained a marked increase in the cloning efficiency of the 9 human melanoma cell lines that were tested. Four of these melanoma lines had a cloning efficiency that was lower than 0.0007 in the absence of feeder cells.
## Abstract Uroplakin II (UPII) gene expression is highly tissue and cell specific, with mRNA present in the suprabasal cell layers of the bladder and urethra. Previous reports described the mouse UPII (mUPII) promoter as primarily urothelium selective. However, ectopic expression of a transgene un
