Cell Line Origin
Human Caucasian colon adenocarcinoma
Cell Line Description
Derived from a 58 year old female Caucasian with Dukes type B adenocarcinoma of the colon. The cells secrete CEA and mucin and are tumorigenic in nude mice. LS174T (Sigma Catalogue number. 87060401) was derived from the same patient. The cells have not been exposed to trypsin.
Application
Tumourigenicity 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%) 1:2 to 1:4 i.e. seeding at 2-5x10,000 cells/cm2 by scraping; 5% CO2; 37°C.
