SPECIES: human
TUMOR: carcinoma, epidermoid

DSMZ catalog code: ACC 91
Morphology: epithelial-like, adherent cell line growing in monolayers
Description: human epidermoid carcinoma established from the solid tumor of an 85-year-old woman; cells were reported to have large numbers of EGF binding sites; cell line was used as indicator cell line for anti-TGF binding confirmed as human with IEF of AST, MDH, PEP B

General Restrictions

Available in the following LABORATORY:

German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ, Braunschweig)
90% RPMI 1640 + 10% FBS split confluent cultures 1:4 to 1:6 every 3-5 days using trypsin/EDTA; seed out at ca. 1-2 x 106 cells/80 cm 2 at 37C with 5% CO2 about 7-12 x 106 cells/80 cm 2; doubling time of about 80-100 hours; frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO at about 1.5 x 106 cells/ampoule; contamination was eliminated with Mycoplasma Removal Agent, then negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays;
Validated by: cytogenetics 1 (hypotriploid karyotype with 24% polyploidy; 64(58-64)XX/XXX, -2, +3, +7, -8, +10, -11, -13, -14, -15, -16, -18, -22, +2 mar; del(3)(p11)x1-2, add(4)(p15), add(6)(p21.3), del(7)(p15), der(7)t(7;11)(p11/13;q11/13)add(11)(q23), add(8)( 21)) * cytogenetics 2 (add(11)(q23), der(14)t(13;14)(q11;p11), add(16)(p13); carries t(7;11) with breakpoint at EGFR (which it overexpresses); corresponds to published karyotype) * DNA fingerprinting (unique DNA profile with (gtg)5 multilocus probe) * immunological analysis (cytokeratin+ desmin- endothel- GFAP- neurofilament- vimentin-) * isoenzymes (confirmed as human with IEF of AST, MDH, PEP B) * reverse transcriptase (reverse transcriptase not detected)
