## Abstract SV40 transformants of human embryo fibroblasts showed an enhanced chemotactic response to fibronectin and conditioned medium of fibroblasts in comparison to the nonโtransformed cells. An even higher chemotactic response was characteristic for a malignant human fibrosarcoma cell line, wh

โฆ Synopsis
Growth medium was conditioned by incubation on mouse embryo cells in vitro. Supplementation of agar suspension cultures with conditioned medium from primary cells, but not from established lines, readily enhanced colony development by mouse tumor cells. Only cells with the properties of myoblasts responded to conditioned medium. Other fibroblastoid cells and virus-transformed cell lines were not affected. Myogenic cells in agar cultures grew in the presence of conditioned medium but did not differentiate. Soluble collagen at 400 mug/ml possessed little colony-stimulating activity by comparison with fresh conditioned medium.
