Homo sapiens, Human
Age
32 years
Tissue
Lung
Morphology
Epithelial
Growth Properties
Adherent
Descriptions
The cells retain their mucoepidermoid characteristics in culture as determined by their ultrastructure and expression of multiple markers of squamous differentiation.The cells support the growth of hepatitis B virus and are negative for L-DOPA decarboxylase.The cells stain positive for keratin and vimentin and are mucicarmine positive but are negative for neurofilament triplet protein.
Biosafety Level
1
Culture Conditions and Handling Complete Growth Medium
RPMI-1640 +10% FBS +1% P/S
Subculturing
Remove and discard culture medium. Briefly rinse the cell layer with DPBS solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor. Add 1.0 to 2.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 2 to 3 minutes). Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal. Add 4.0 to 6.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
Subcultivation Ratio
1:2-1:4
Medium Renewal
Every 2 to 3 days
Cryopreservation
Freeze medium: 60% Basal medium+30% FBS+10% DMSO Storage temperature: Liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Culture Conditions
Atmosphere: Air, 95%; CO2, 5% Temperature: 37℃
Special Features of the Cell Line Tumorigenic
Yes
Effects
Yes, in nude mice; tumors histologically resemble the original biopsy specimen and retain mucoepidermoid features.
