Cytogenetic Analysis:modal number = 65; range = 60 to 68.
This is a hypertriploid rat cell line with the modal number of 65, occurring in 32% of cells. However, cells with 67 chromosomes also occurred at a high rate (22%). Cells with a higher ploidy count occurred at 0.6%. There were 25 to 30 marker chromosomes per cell including paired T(1;2-), single 4p+, chromosome 2 with the deleted q16-q24 (?), 11p+ and about 15 other constitutive markers. Only a single copy of the X chromosome was identified. Other characteristics included consistent single copies for chromosomes 1 and 3, double copies for chromosomes 5 and 8, and more than four copies for chromosome 7.

Comments:The GH4C1 cell line was developed in 1972 by A.H. Tashjian, Jr. from serially propagated GH3 (ATCC CCL-82.1 ) cells that suddenly produced little or no detectable levels of growth hormone.
GH4C1 cells differed from GH3 cells in that basal levels of growth hormone production were low (0.06 or less hormone/mg cell protein/24 hours.
Prolactin is also produced at a rate of 0.006 to 0.012 mg hormone/mg cell protein/24 hours.
Thyrotropin-releasing Hormone (TRH) stimulates prolactin synthesis and secretion.
Cloned cDNA from GH4C1 cells has been used to investigate the structure and regulation of the rat TRH receptor.
This line provides a system for studying the molecular mechanisms of action of hypothalamic peptides on growth hormone and prolactin release and synthesis.
The cells provide a system for studying the molecular mechanisms of receptor modulation and signal transduction in pituitary - derived cells.
They may be used for electrophysiological studies on plasma membrane calcium channels and also for studies of intracellular calcium homeostasis in secretory cells.
These cells have a plating efficiency of approximately 22% in the recommended culture medium.
