Cell Line Origin
Human oral squamous cell carcinoma, floor of mouth
Cell Line Description
Established from a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the floor of the mouth (20mm-40mm) of an 82 year-old male patient. STNMP stage II, moderately differentiated, node positive tumour. Mutant p53, codon 176 exon 5, G to T and 373 exon 11, A to G; wild type K-, N- and Ha-ras. Tumourigenic in athymic nude mice on subcutaneous injection; on injection into the floor of the mouth, cells spread to lymphatics and lymph nodes. By short tandem repeat (STR)-PCR analysis the Y chromosome could not be detected in this cell line when tested at ECACC. It is a known phenomenon that SSC cell lines can lose their Y chromosome.
Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%), approximately every 6-7 days, 1:8 to 1:10 using 0.05% trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C. Suggested seeding density 7 x 1000 cells/cm2.
