Cell Line Origin
Human cervix carcinoma
Cell Line Description
Originated from tumours produced in irradiated-cortisonised weanling rats after injecting with epidermoid carcinoma tissue from the larynx of a 56 year old male. This cell line was found to be indistinguishable from HeLa by STR PCR DNA profiling. Therefore, the cell line should be considered as derived from HeLa. Ethnicity: Black.
Application
Human Hep2 (HeLa derivative) cell line has been used for virus and tumorigenicity studies.
Culture Medium
EMEM (EBSS) + 2mM Glutamine + 1% Non Essential Amino Acids (NEAA) + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).
Subculture Routine
Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:10 i.e. seeding at 1-3x10,000 cells/cm2 using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C. After thawing the first subculture may take 7-10 days.
