Organism Mus musculus, transgenic, mouse, transgenic
Cell Type Epithelial
Product Format frozen
Morphology epithelial
Culture Properties adherent
Biosafety Level 2 CELLS CONTAIN PAPOVAVIRUS
Disease pancreatic islet cell tumor; insulinoma
Age 26 weeks
Gender male
Strain Tg(E1a-1-SV40E)Bri18
Applications
TGP61 is an epithelial like cell line derived from a pancreatic tumor with islet cell morphology (insulinoma) arising in an adult male transgenic mouse.
The mouse carried the pseudogene construct composed of elastase-1 promoter linked to the SV40 T antigen.
TGP61 cells transiently produced insulin in culture and then produced somatostatin.
However, the cells do not secrete somatostatin into the medium.
Derivation
TGP61 is an epithelial like cell line derived from a pancreatic tumor with islet cell morphology (insulinoma) arising in an adult male transgenic mouse.
TGP61 cells transiently produced insulin in culture and then produced somatostatin.
Clinical Data
TGP61 is an epithelial like cell line derived from a pancreatic tumor with islet cell morphology (insulinoma) arising in an adult male transgenic mouse.
male
Genes Expressed
somatostatin (not secreted)
Comments
TGP61 is an epithelial like cell line derived from a pancreatic tumor with islet cell morphology (insulinoma) arising in an adult male transgenic mouse.
The mouse carried the pseudogene construct composed of elastase-1 promoter linked to the SV40 T antigen.
TGP61 cells transiently produced insulin in culture and then produced somatostatin.
Histochemical staining of the current stock of TGP 61 for somatostatin was positive.
However, the cells do not secrete somatostatin into the medium.
Complete Growth Medium A 1:1 mixture of Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium and Ham's F12 medium, 90%; heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 10%
Subculturing
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:3 to 1:4 is recommended
Medium Renewal: Twice per week
Remove spent medium, add fresh 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution, rinse and remove trypsin. Let the culture sit at room temperature (or at 37C) until the cells detach. Add fresh medium, aspirate and dispense into new flasks.
Cryopreservation
Culture medium, 95%; DMSO, 5%
Name of Depositor OS Pettengill, D Longnecker
