Description
ESO51 was established from a primary adenocarcinoma of the distal oesophagus with the presence of Barrett's transformed mucosa in a 74 year-old Caucasian male in 2000. ESO51 was found to be tumourigenic in female NMRI nude mice or NOD-SCID mice. The Y chromosome could not be detected in this cell line by short tandem repeat-PCR analysis when tested at Glow Biologics. It cell line is a known phenomenon that due to the increased genetic instability of cancer cell lines the Y chromosome can be rearranged or lost resulting in lack of detection. The cell line is identical to the source provided by the depositor based on the STR-PCR analysis.
