V79-4 is a cell exhibiting fibroblast morphology isolated from the lung of a male Chinese hamster in 1958. This cell line was deposited by EH Chu and used in toxicology research.

Characteristics: Widely used to study DNA damage induced by X-ray, UV radiation and oxidizing agents. Doubling time: ~16-20 hours (DSMZ=ACC-335). Derived from site: In situ; Lung; …

Since cell size in the V79 cell line correlates well with progression through the cell cycle, small G 1-like cells can be recovered selectively by the velocity sedimentation (Sta-put) technique first …

V79 is well established in toxicology studies. Stability of karyotype and morphology is making them suitable for gene toxicity assays with low background aberrations. The cells do not …

V79 cells are a Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cell line, commonly used in genetic, toxicological, and radiobiological research. They originate from the lung tissue of the Chinese hamster and …

The V79-4 cell line is a subline of the original V79 Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts, a lineage that traces back to its development by Ford and Yerganian in 1958 from lung tissue of a young …

In 1966, E.H.Y. Chu obtained the line from W. Sinclair, and isolated the V79-4 clone. This cell line was developed by Ford and Yerganian in 1958 from lung tissue of a young male Chinese …

Group: Space-flown cell line (cellonaut). Characteristics: Widely used to study DNA damage induced by X-ray, UV radiation and oxidizing agents. Doubling time: 12-14 hours …

Mar 1, 1997 · In this report we compare the p53 cDNA sequence of CHEF and V79 cells, check the homology between different species, and define the mutations in V79 cells. Immunohisto …

V79 Chinese hamster cells genetically engineered for cytochrome P450 and their use in mutagenicity and metabolism studies. Stable expression of human cytochrome P450 1A1 …
