Description

Origine de la lignée cellulaire

Mouse malignant mesothelioma

Description de la lignée cellulaire

Mice (BALB/c female 6-8 weeks) were exposed to crocidolite asbestos through intraperitoneal injection resulting in tumour development. Cultures were established from malignant mesothelial cells obtained from ascites fluid. Cells are tumourigenic in syngeneic immunocompetent mice. Cell Bank Australia reference number: CBA0144

Application

Investigation of the properties of malignant mesothelioma cells and the development of new diagnostic methods.

Milieu de culture

RPMI 1640 (with 2mM L-Glutamine + 25mM HEPES) + 5% FCS

Procédure de repiquage

Optimal split ratio 1:8 (seeding density 1.2 x104 cells/cm²).Cells incubated at 37oC with 5% CO₂.Harvest the cells using 0.05% Trypsin/EDTA at 37°C for 5 min.
