Biosafety Level 1

Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.

Disease carcinoma; non-small cell lung cancer
Age 36 years
Gender male
Ethnicity Caucasian
Derivation This line was derived by A.F. Gazdar, H.K. Oie, J.D. Minna and associates from a lymph node metastasis obtained from a patient prior to therapy.
Clinical Data 36 years Caucasian male
Genes Expressed neuromedin B (NMB)
Cellular Products neuromedin B (NMB)
Comments The cells are able to synthesize the peptide NMB at 0.2 pmol/mg protein, but not the gastrin releasing peptide (GRP).
Complete Growth Medium ACL-4 medium (serum-free)The base medium for this cell line is ATCC formulated DMEM: F12 Medium Catalog No. 30-2006. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium:
  • 0.02 mg/ml insulin
  • 0.01 mg/ml transferrin
  • 25 nM sodium selenite (final conc.)
  • 50 nM Hydrocortisone (final conc.)
  • 1 ng/ml Epidermal Growth Factor (do not filter)
  • 0.01 mM ethanolamine (final conc.)
  • 0.01 mM phosphorylethanolamine (final conc.)
  • 100 pM triiodothyronine (final conc.)
  • 0.5% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (final conc.)
  • 10 mM HEPES
  • 0.5 mM sodium pyruvate (final conc.)
  • extra 2mM L-glutamine (for final conc. of 4.5mM)
Subculturing

Cultures can be maintained by addition of fresh medium or replacement of medium. Alternatively, cultures can be established by centrifugation of the suspension with subsequent resuspension in fresh medium. Add medium as the cell density increases.

Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days

Cryopreservation Culture medium, 95%; DMSO, 5%
Culture Conditions Temperature: 37°C
STR Profile Amelogenin: X CSF1PO: 12 D13S317: 14 D16S539: 9 D5S818: 10 D7S820: 8 THO1: 6 TPOX: 8 vWA: 15
