Comments |
The cells display both microvilli and desmosomes, and can be grown in soft agar. (PubMed: 2835539)
The cells produce a PTH like peptides that is identical to peptides produced by breast and lung tumors.
The peptide has an N terminal sequence similar to PTH, has PTH like activity, and has a molecular weight of 6000 daltons.
