Descripción línea celular

Derived from a 58 year old Caucasian male. The cells can synthesise lecithin utilising the cytidine diphosphocholine pathway. Occasional cells may also contain inclusion bodies although they are not known to carry any human pathogen.

Aplicación

Enzymatic studies
Human A549 cell line has been used:
  • to study the ability of 2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)thieno-1,3-thiazin-4-one (BChTT) to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and identify mechanisms involved in its actions[1]
  • to study the effects of insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) on proliferation and apoptosis in A549 cells[2]
  • to culture A549 cells in different media over a long term and identify conditions for promoting alveolar type II differentiation characteristics in A549 cells[3]

  2. What is cell line?

    1 answer
    1. Hello. Human A549 cell line is a human lung carcinoma that was derived from a 58 year old Caucasian male.

  3. Are my Cell Line cells mycoplasma tested?

    1 answer
    1. ECACC routinely tests all manufactured cell banks for mycoplasma.

  4. Why is Vapor Phase Liquid Nitrogen preferred for storage of Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. If ampules are immersed into liquid phase of liquid nitrogen, it increases the risk of the liquid seeping into the vial. This could lead to problems of cross-contamination and increased risk of the ampule exploding when thawed.

      Helpful?

  5. How do I handle Cell Line frozen cells upon arrival?

    1 answer
    1. Upon receipt, frozen ampules should be transferred directly to vapor phase liquid nitrogen without delay (-135°C) or liquid phase liquid nitrogen if vapor phase is not available. DO NOT use a -80°C freezer as an alternative; this will result in loss of viability.

  6. Are the Cell Line cells tested for viral pathogens?

    1 answer
    1. HPA Cultures does not perform any viral testing on the cell lines.

  7. How many Cell Line cells are in the vial?

    1 answer
    1. Each vial of cells contains 2-3 x 106 cells in 1 ml of freezing media. This is in a 1.8 mL ampule.  For exceptionally large cells, counts may decrease. Suspension cells, generally smaller cells, may contain as many as 4-5 x 106 cells/vial to assure optimal viability upon thaw.

  8. What passage are my Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. If the passage of the cells is known, it is listed on the product page at the HPA website (www.hpacultures.org.uk).

  9. What medium should I use when I thaw the Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. The medium for each cell line is listed on the product page. It is specific to each cell line. If not visible on the Sigma-Aldrich website product page, the HPA website also contains the same information (www.hpacultures.org.uk). The product number for the cell line is the same on either site.
