Description: Established from brain GBM tumor of a Chinese patient; it is tumorigenic in the athymic nude mice with multiple pulmonary metastases; scanning electron microscope examinations revealed the numerous surface microvilli and blebs of various size on the primary GBM tumors, the cultured tumor cells in vitro and the xenografted tumor cells in the nude mice in vivo; the distinct ultrastructural features of stellate cultured cells with astrocytic-differentiation after db-cAMP treatment of 96 hours showed many intermittent dilations (pseudopods) along the long cytoplasmic and the growth cones also expressed strongly positive immunostaining for GFAP; the growth inhibition of db-cAMp treated, cultured in vitro tumor cells was also observed; it may be useful for the investigation of human brain GBM. BCRC confirmed BCRC 60164 GBM8901 was derived from the same donor as BCRC 60163 GBM8401 by using STR-PCR method.
