Establishment of attached and non-attached cell lines from an uncommon human glioma

Abstract
A New cell line, U‐706, established from an uncommon human glioma (possibly giant‐cell glioblastoma) is reported in this communication. The tumor gave rise to two permanent sublines, one attached (U‐706M) and one non‐attached (U‐706S) cell line. The growth characteristics, chromosome banding pattern, electronmicroscopic picture and cell surface characteristics of the two sublines are described.
