DU 145 Cell Line | CL-0075

DU 145 Cell Line | CL-0075 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition

Media: CM-0075

Organism: Homo sapiens, Human

Application: Transfection host.

Background: The line is not detectably hormone sensitive, is only weakly positive for acid phosphatase and isolated cells form colonies in soft agar. The cells do not express prostate antigen. Ultrastructural analyses of both the cell line and original tumor revealed microvilli, tonofilaments, desmosomes, any mitochondria, well developed Golgi and heterogenous lysosomes.

Age: 69 years

Tissue: Prostate, derived from metastatic site: brain

Morphology: Epithelial

Growth Properties: Adherent

Doubling Time: N/A

Biosafty: 1

Medium: MEM(PM150410)+10% FBS+1% P/S(PB180120)

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.

Ratio: 1:2 to 1:4

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℃

Effects: Yes, in nude mice forms adenocarcinoma(gradeⅡ) consistent with prostatic primary.

Duration: N/A

Lead Time: 3-5 days
