A permanent human brain malignant glioma cell line, GBM8401/ TSGH,NDMC, has been successfully established from a 3 1-year-old Chinese female with brain glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in monolayer culture and has been subcultured for more than 100 passages during 24 months in vitro. The tumor cell dou

✦ Synopsis
A cell line derived from a well-differentiated human transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder, designated TSGH-8301, was established in vitro. The cultured epithelioid cells exhibited monolayer growth and loss of contact inhibition. The tumorigenicity of TSGH-8301 had been shown by growth in soft agar and tumor induction in athymic nude mice. A reverse ratio of lactate dehydrogenase (LHD) isoenzyme in the cell line and nude mouse-grown tumors was seen predominantly with LDH-V. Chromosomal analysis revealed a heterodiploid stem line with a modal number of 50. Sera of urinary bladder cancer patients reacted with membrane antigens of the TSGH-8301 cells, suggesting the existence of tumorassociated antigens in the cells. In vitro chemosensitivity tests of these cells may provide data valuable in the selection of proper anticancer drugs for the TSGH-8301 donor patient.

We report 8 newly established gastric-carcinoma cell lines (SNU-216, 484, 520, 601, 620, 638, 668, 719) from Korean patients. Morphologic study was carried out using light and electron microscopes. CEA, aFP, and CA 19-9 and TPA in supernatant and in cell lysate were measured by radioimmunoassay. p53
## Abstract A human signet ring gastric carcinoma cell line TSGH9201 was established in vitro. The cells grew in vitro as a monolayer with polygonal morphology and had a population doubling time of 34 hours. The cells secreted tumor markers CEA and CA 125. They were, however, not tumorigenic in ath
