Abstract
Cells from cultures of the ChaGo line of human lung cancer were examined periodically by electron microscopy for 4 years and no cilia were observed. However, when cells were grown in medium containing 2% dimethyl sulfoxide, as many as 50% of the cells had cilia with a 9+0 microtubular pattern.
