Comments |
Tumorous nodules were induced in the liver of a male leghorn chicken by long term treatment with diethylnitrosamine. The morphology of the cells is dendritic like. The cells express glucose-6-phosphatase and weak canalicular ATPase activity. The cells form tumors in athymic nude mice. LMH cells contain a low level of functional estrogen receptor and are inducible for the expression of the liver specific apolipoprotein II (apoII) gene. The cell line is useful for transfection studies. NOTE: tissue culture vessels used to propagate this line must be precoated with 0.1% gelatin. To prepare the vessels, flood them with gelatin solution, refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes and remove the liquid. Vessels prepared in this fashion may be used immediately. |
Complete Growth Medium |
Waymouth's MB 752/1 medium, 90%; fetal bovine serum, 10%
|
Subculturing |
Remove medium, rinse two times with cold 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution.
Allow the flasks to sit at room temperature (or incubate at 37°C) until the cells detach.
Add fresh culture medium, aspirate, and dispense into new culture flasks.
Flasks must be coated with 0.1% gelatin.
To prepare the vessels, flood them with gelatin solution, refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes and remove the liquid.
Vessels prepared in this fashion may be used immediately.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:4 is recommended
Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days |
Cryopreservation |
Culture medium, 95%; DMSO, 5% |
