ATDC5 cell line - i am looking for this cell line (Oct/24/2004 )

Hell, everyone,
I am interested in ATDC5 cell line, which is used to study the chondrogensis process. I would like to know anybody who is culturing those cell line now and who can provide me information about its availability in the united states. I could not find it in ATCC, so I am asking you for help.........

You can find out which lab has it from the literature and then ask for it. One paper mentioned ATDC5 cells were obtained from RIKEN cell bank (Tsukuba, Japan).

Yeah, this cell line is established by some Japanese researchers. But it seems hard to get cells from abroad. I just wonder anyone in the united states are using this cell line.......
