Description: The line is clonal derivative of Hep G2 that was selected for strong contact inhibition of growth, high albumin production, high production of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and ability to grow in glucose deficient medium; as the cells become confluent, there is a marked reduction in AFP secretion and an increase in albumin secretion; gluconeogenesis activity is strongly oxygen dependent; the cells have nitrogen metabolizing activity comparable to perfused rat livers; there is no evidence of a Hepatitis B virus genome in this cell line.
