Cell Line Origin

Mouse mammary, drug-resistant

Cell Line Description

EMT6/VCR/R is a drug-resistant variant of the mouse mammary tumour cell line EMT6/P (Sigma Catalogue number. 96042344). It was derived from the parent line by continuous growth in increasing concentrations of vincristine. EMT6/VCR/R was reported to be cross-resistant to other drugs of the multidrug-resistance (MDR) phenotype, showed reduced intracellular drug accumulation and hyperexpression of P-glycoprotein.

Application

Drug-resistance studies

Culture Medium

MEM(EBSS) + 2mM Glutamine + 1% Non Essential Amino Acids (NEAA) + 1μg/ml vincristine + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).

Subculture Routine

Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:6 using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37ºC. It is recommended to resusitate cells in drug-free medium. Add drug after growth is established.
