Cell Line Origin

Mouse LAF1 pituitary gland tumour

Cell Line Description

Derived after alternate passage of LAF1 mouse pituitary tumour cells as tumours in animals and in cell culture. Cells produce adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) at approximately the rate of 1000mU/mg of cell protein per week.

Application

Hormone studies

Culture Medium

Ham′s F10 + 2mM Glutamine + 15% Horse Serum (HS) + 2.5% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS). Cells grow in large aggregates.

Subculture Routine

Allow clusters to settle and remove all but 5 to 10 ml of medium. Gently transfer the clusters to new flasks and add fresh medium. A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 is recommended. Cells grow in large viable clusters making counting difficult. A seeding densi
