This is the complete description of the cell line that you selected. By clicking on a generic term (e.g., SPECIES) you will go to the corresponding index (e.g., index of species), while by clicking on a specific term (e.g., retinoblastoma) you will go to the list of corresponding cell lines (e.g., retionoblastoma cell lines).

General Restrictions

Available in the following LABORATORY:

German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ, Braunschweig)
85% McCoy's 5A + 15% non-heat inactivated FBS + 50 ng/ml human IL-7 + 0.4x MEM vitamins + 1x MEM non-essential amino acids + 0.5x essential amino acids + 1 mM sodium pyruvate + 0.12% sodium bicarbonate + 2 mM L-glutamine + 50 覡 mercaptoethanol cells are difficult to culture! split saturated culture 1:2 every 2-3 days; seed out at ca. 1.0 x 106 cells/ml; after thawing, cells may initially grow rather slowly for about one week; maintain at 1-3 x 106 cells/ml at 37C with 5% CO2 maximum density at ca. 3 x 106 cells/ml; doubling time of about 50 hours; frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO at about 5 x 106 cells/ampoule; negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays;
Validated by: cytogenetics 1 (near-diploid karyotype with 11% polyploidy; 46(45- 49)<2n>XX, +5, +5, +7, -16, -20, -22, -22, +mar, del(5)(q11/12)x2, add(7)(q35)x1-2, add(10)(p11), add(14)(p11), add(15)(p11), der(19)t(9;19)(q21;q13); sdl with add(2)(q37);) * cytogenetics 2 (mar q-arm is identical to additional material on der(10)) * DNA fingerprinting (unique DNA profile with (gtg)5 multilocus probe) * immunological analysis (cytokeratin -, desmin -, endothel -, GFAP -, neurofilament + (20%), vimentin + (100%)) * isoenzymes (confirmed as human with IEF of AST, MDH) * reverse transcriptase (reverse transcriptase negative)
