Features and Benefits

The HPV18-positive SCC-105 squamous cell carcinoma cell line was derived from the laryngeal tumor of a 51yo never-smoker male and is a suitable in vitro model of H&N carcinoma studies.

Target description

HPV-related head and neck cancers are often more responsive with current therapeutic protocols when compared to HPV-negative tumors that are derived from the same anatomical location. This has propagated interest in reducing the intensity levels of treatment. However, even when combining strong therapeutic approaches with chemotherapy, 20-30% of HPV-positive cancers progress and no longer respond to treatment methods. This makes it continually important to understand why certain tumors progress while others appropriately respond to treatment. ​​The UM-SCC-105 cell line is HPV18-positive. This cell line was biopsied from a laryngeal tumor of a 51-year-old never-smoker male individual. It is understood that the cancer progression was driven by E6/E7 viral mechanisms rather than cell cycle mutations typically related to tobacco smoke carcinogenesis, giving this cell line a unique background. Other mechanisms, such as understanding viral integration into the host genome, continue to be an important aspect of understanding HPV-driven cancers. The UM-SCC-105 cell line positively expresses head and neck cancer markers such as ALDH1, CD44, and ABCG2. ALDH1 and CD44 have both been implicated as cancer stem cell (CSC) markers in head and neck cancers. CSCs are often associated with a poor prognosis and are necessary to understanding aggressive tumor behavior that overcomes treatment. ABCG2 is also addressed as a common head and neck squamous cell carcinoma marker. ABCG2 functions as an efflux pump and is associated with anticancer drug resistance.

Storage and Stability

UM-SCC-105 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.
