Description

General description

YUMM1.1 cells are syngeneic with the immunocompetent C57BL/6 mouse background and retain genetic markers of the Braf/Pten mouse models, characterized by activation of Braf and inactivation of Pten and Cdkn2a.

Application

• Each vial contains >1X10⁶ viable cells.
• YUMM1.1 cells are tested negative for infectious diseases by a Mouse Essential CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
• Cells are verified to be of mouse origin and negative for inter-species contamination from rat, chinese hamster, Golden Syrian hamster, human and non-human primate (NHP) as assessed by a Contamination CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
• Cells are negative for mycoplasma contamination.

Features and Benefits

The YUMM cell lines recapitulate genetic drivers found in many human melanomas. YUMM1.1 is driven by Braf activation, Pten/Cdkn2a inactivation, and is highly tumorigenic in vivo.

Target description

The promise of immune-based therapies in cancer and recent progress in successful application of these approaches has confirmed the utility of immunocompetent models for evaluation of the immune system response to cancer cells. Genetically engineered mou

Storage and Stability

YUMM1.1 cells should be stored in liquid nitrogen until use. The cells can be cultured for at least 10 passages after initial thawing without significantly affecting the cell marker expression and functionality.
