Description: Although WiDr deposited as a colon adenocarcinoma line established from a 78 year old female, DNA fingerprinting has shown this line to be a derivative of HT-29; the cells are negative for Colon Antigen 3 expression; the cells are positive for keratin by immunoperoxidase staining; the cells expressed p53 antigen (the p53 produced has a G -> A mutation resulting in Arg -> His at position 273); growth of WiDr cells is inhibited by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha); inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase are highly cytotoxic to WiDr cells.
