  • Title: Continuous culture of Reuber hepatoma cells in serum-free arginine-, glutamine- and tyrosine-deprived chemically defined medium.
    Author: Niwa A, Yamamoto K, Sorimachi K, Yasumura Y.
    Journal: In Vitro; 1980 Nov; 16(11):987-93. PubMed ID: 6108914.
    Abstract:
    The rat hepatoma cell line, H4-II-E, was grown serially over a 1-year period and about 30 passages in arginine-, glutamine-, and tyrosine-deprived and ornithine-supplemented Eagle's minimum essential medium with no supplements other than biotin. The adapted cell line, R-Y121B, proliferates in the above mentioned medium with a doubling time of about 4 days and maintains hepatic "marker" enzymes such as tyrosine aminotransferase, phenylalanine hydroxylase, and all the enzymes of the urea cycle.
