Abstract
Abstract A method for growing epithelial cells in vitro using soluble proteins secreted by 804G rat bladder carcinoma cells. These proteins are able to stimulate cell attachment and hemidesmosome formation in cells grown in contact with the proteins. The purification of these proteins from 804G culture supernatant is greatly facilitated by culturing the cells under low serum conditions.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
59 words
A method for culturing mammalian epithelial cells in vitro comprising: culturing 804G rat bladder carcinoma cells in media under conditions that promote the secretion of soluble factors, wherein said 804G cells secrete said factors; removing said media from said 804G cells; and culturing said media with said epithelial cells, under conditions effective for hemidesmosome formation in said epithelial cells.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
59 words
A method for culturing mammalian epithelial cells in vitro comprising: culturing 804G rat bladder carcinoma cells in media under conditions that promote the secretion of soluble factors, wherein said 804G cells secrete said factors; removing said media from said 804G cells; and culturing said media with said epithelial cells, under conditions effective for hemidesmosome formation in said epithelial cells.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
