N2 - The C6 rat glioma cell line is shown to consist of a mixed population of cells which either contain vimentin (80% of the cells) or completely lack any cytoplasmic intermediate filament (IF) proteins. Subclones could be established with both phenotypes, indicating that these IF protein expression patterns represent stable phenotypic markers. Absence of IF proteins in C6 subclones could consistently be correlated with an altered cell morphology and a pronounced increase in the number of actin stress fibers.
