The document discusses different types of cell lines. Finite cell lines have a limited lifespan, while continuous cell lines can divide indefinitely after undergoing transformation. Transformed cell lines are cancerous or tumorous cells derived from normal cells. Characteristics of continuous cell lines include small, rounded cells that grow rapidly in suspension with a homogeneous population and tissue-specific gene expression turned off. Examples of continuous cell lines include A2780 ovarian cancer cells, Vero monkey kidney cells, and IMR-90 and WI-38 human embryonic lung fibroblasts.

subcultured or passaged then it becomes cell line. TYPES OF CELL LINES FINITE CELL LINES :- Normal cell usually divide only a limited number of times before loosing their ability to proliferate which is a genetically determined event known senescence these type of cell lines are known as finite cell lines
CONTINUOUS CELL LINES :- When a finite cell
line undergoes transformation and acquires the ability to divide indefinitely then it is known as continuous cell lines.
TRANSFORMED CELL LINE:- It is defined as the
conversion of a normal healthy into a tumorous or a cancerous cell CHARACTERISTCS OF CONTINUOUS CELL LINE Smaller, more rounded ,less adherent with a higher nucleus/cytoplasm ratio. Fast growth .
Reduced anchorage dependence and grow more
in suspension condition. Ability to grow up to higher cell density.
Different in phenotype from donor tissue.
Stop expressing tissue specific gene.
Homogeneous cell population.
Serially propagated in culture showing an
increased growth. EXAMPLES OF CONTINUOUS CELL LINE CELL MORPHOL ORIGIN SPECIES AGE CHARACTERIS LINE OGY TICS A2780 Epithelial Ovary Human Adult Chemosensitive with resistant variants
