1. The parental nondifferentiated ileocecal adenocarcinoma HCT-8 cell line and fully differentiated HCT8-MTX cells.
The parental nondifferentiated ileocecal adenocarcinoma HCT-8 cell line and fully differentiated HCT8-MTX cells. (A to C) Transmission electron microscopy examination of parental HCT-8 cells shows the cells expressing unorganized cell extensions at the periphery of isolated cells (A and B) and the presence of no well-ordered microvillus-like structures in cells localized at the periphery of cell clusters (C). (D and E) Transmission electron microscopy examination of fully differentiated HCT8-MTX cells expressing a short and well-ordered brush border. Cells were observed after 15 days in culture.
