Description
Established by Seeger et al., (1977) from the primary site of a noncatecholamine-producing neuroblastoma of a 3-year-old female with clinical Stage IV neuroblastoma. The culture consists mostly of large, elongated cells with processes with some small round cells adhering to the elongated cells. The cells are tumourigenic in nude mice.
Suggested Medium
EMEM (with non-essential amino acids) and Ham's F12 (11 mixture) + 2mM Glutamine + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS)
Quality Control
LA-N-2 Cell Line was tested and found to be free of mycoplasma, bacterial, viruses, and other toxins. All cells were above 95% viability before freezing.
Morphology
Large elongated cells + small round cells in clusters
Shippment
LA-N-2 Cell Line will be shipped using dry ice.
Storage
Store the cell lines in liquid nitrogen vapor (less than -130°C)
