Abstract Two flounder cell lines; hirame natural embryo cells (HINAE) and clone hirame embryo cells (CHIE) were established from hirame (Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus) embryos. Both cells were cultured using a Leibovitz's L-15 medium at 20 deg C. HINAE and CHIE cells consisted of fibroblastic cells. Doubling time of HINAE and CHIE cells were 9 and 12 days, respectively. HINAE and CHIE cells showed cytopathic effects (CPE) when infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) and hirame rhabdovirus (HIRRV) were inoculated. Both cells did not show a susceptibility to flounder herpesvirus (FHV), causative agent of viral epithelial hyperplasia and Japanese flounder nervous necrosis virus (JF-NNV). HINAE cells showed a susceptibility to Japanese flounder lymphocystis disease virus (JF-LCDV) and produced enlarged rounded cells. Infectivity of culture grown JF-LCDV using the HINAE cells reached 10^5.30 TCID50/ml. HINAE is a first cell line to support a growth of JF-LCDV.
