Description:
Rhinosporidium seeberi, a fungus that is associated with polyp-like tumors in animals and man, was successfully cultivated. This organism stimulated proliferation of epithelial cells in vitro, producing polyp-like structures. Spores produced in culture required a period of aging or development, or both, before they were capable of reinitiating the growth cycle.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Levy, M G -- Meuten, D J -- Breitschwerdt, E B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Oct 24;234(4775):474-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3764422" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
