TGP 52 has been isolated from an islet tumour arising in the pancreas of a transgenic Tg (E1a-1-SV40E) Bri18 mouse. These mice carry a pseudogene construct composed of a pancreatic specific elastase-1 promoter linked to the SV40T antigen and thereby represent an animal model for pancreatic carcinogenesis. TGP 52 cells are SV40T antigen positive and secrete somatostatin, it is one of a series of pancreatic tumour lines deposited at ECACC. Cells transiently produce insulin in culture followed by somatostatin.
