Embryonic Swiss Mouse Fibroblast Cells (3T3)
Other cell lines were in use before 3t3 cells, but this newer culture line soared to the forefront of science because of its particular characteristics. Unlike other tissue cultures available at the time, 3t3 cells did not cause tumors when injected in mice. Careful study led to the discovery of the underlying cause, which is that the cells exhibit a highly developed inhibition of growth based on density levels.
