Applications
LA7 is a mammary tumor cell line derived in 1979 from a Sprague-Dawley adult female rat by Renato Dulbecco at The Salk Institute in San Diego, CA.
Cells irradiated with 6000 rads may be used as feeder layers.
Derivation
LA7 is a mammary tumor cell line derived in 1979 from a Sprague-Dawley adult female rat by Renato Dulbecco at The Salk Institute in San Diego, CA.
It is a clonal derivative of the Rama 25 line obtained from a rat treated with dimethylbenz(a)anthracene.
Clinical Data
LA7 is a mammary tumor cell line derived in 1979 from a Sprague-Dawley adult female rat by Renato Dulbecco at The Salk Institute in San Diego, CA.

Comments
LA7 is a mammary tumor cell line derived in 1979 from a Sprague-Dawley adult female rat by Renato Dulbecco at The Salk Institute in San Diego, CA.
It is a clonal derivative of the Rama 25 line obtained from a rat treated with dimethylbenz(a)anthracene.
Cells irradiated with 6000 rads may be used as feeder layers.
Such feeder layers will stimulate the proliferation of normal primary mouse and rat mammary cells and normal primary mouse thymic epithelial cells.
Complete Growth Medium Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium with reduced sodium bicarbonate (1.5 to 2.0 g/L), 4.5 g/L glucose, 0.005 mg/ml insulin, 50 nM hydrocortisone and 20 mM HEPES, 95%; fetal bovine serum, 5%
Subculturing
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:8 to 1:10 is recommended
Medium Renewal: 2 to 3 times per week
Remove spent medium, add fresh 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution, rinse and remove trypsin.
Add fresh trypsin solution (1 to 2 ml) and 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%
Culture Conditions
Temperature: 37.0°C
Name of Depositor UK Ehmann
Year of Origin 1979
