Cell Line Description

The drug resistant cell line K562 AZQ has been developed from the parent K562 cell line (Sigma Catalogue number. 89121407) by treatment with AZQ C215-bis (carboethoxyamino)-3, 6-diazitinyl 1;4 (benzoquinone). The cells have been shown to contain decreased levels of glutathione and superoxoid dismutase. They are cross-resistant to adriamycin, mitzolamide, MMNG and mitmycin. Cells should be challenged with AZQ at every 4th passage at a minimum density of 100,000 cells/ml. It is recommended to cultivate the cells without drug on resuscitation.

Application

Drug-resistance studies

Culture Medium

RPMI 1640 + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS) + 2mM Glutamine. Challenge with 1 mM AZQ every 4th passage.

Subculture Routine

Maintain cultures between 3-9 x 100,000 cells/ml; 5% CO2; 37°C.
