Optimized growth conditions for trans-well inserts have not been established. It is suggested to grow these cells on ECM-coated T75 tissue culture flasks as per the user protocol. However, 16HBE14o- cells seem to grow well on fibronectin-coated inserts containing bovine serum albumin.

General description
16HBE14o- is a human bronchial epithelial cell line isolated from a 1-year old male heart-lung patient and immortalized with the origin-of-replication defective SV40 plasmid (pSVori-). The cell line retains characteristic features of normal differentiated bronchial epithelial cells including a cobblestone morphology, cytokeratin expression, the ability to form tight junctions, and directional ion transport (1). When grown with an air/liquid interface, cilia can be detected. In contrast to most other respiratory cell lines, 16HBE14o- expresses high levels of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mRNA and protein (1). Expression of CFTR is correlated to cAMP-dependent Cl- conductance in a variety of cells, including 16HE14o- epithelial cells.

Application
Quality
• Each vial contains ≥ 1X106 viable cells.
• Cells are tested by PCR and are negative for HPV-16, HPV-18, Hepatitis A, C, and HIV-1 & 2 viruses as assessed by a Human Essential CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
• Cells are negative for mycoplasma contamination.
• Each lot of cells is genotyped by STR analysis to verify the unique identity of the cell line.

Are there any issues with the cell growth of 16HBE14o- cells on 0.4 and 3 micron pore size trans-ell inserts? The cells were seeded at 1x10^5 cells per insert with an area of 0.47 cm^2. After growing the monolayer for two days and removing the medium from the apical side, it has been over a week under ALI conditions, but the cells do not have cilia, and the TEER has not increased.
