It is also important to take into account that the immortalization process used for the generation of MEF cell lines relied on SV40 Antigen T expression (De Strooper et al., 1999), which shows similarities with tumor development due to the large T antigen forming complexes with pRB-1 and p53 (Hubbard and Ozer, 1999; Pipas, 2009). This evidence concerns the gene TP53 and neoplasm.
