Karyotype |
Cytogenetic information is based on initial seed stock at ATCC. Cytogenetic instability has been reported in the literature for some cell lines: triploid; modal number = 116; six marker chromosomes |
Derivation |
LMH/2A is a stably transfected cell line constructed in 1989 by R. Binder from the LMH hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (see ATCC CRL-2117) by cotransfection with the plasmid pRSVCEO (containing the chicken estrogen receptor gene driven by the Rous sarcoma promoter) and the pRSVNEO plasmid (which confers G418 resistance).
|
Receptor Expression |
estrogen receptor, positive |
Tumorigenic |
Yes |
Effects |
Yes, forms tumors in nude mice |
Comments |
LMH/2A cells express high levels of chicken estrogen receptor.
Apolipoprotein (apoII) gene expression is increased by estrogen 300-fold compared with levels in the low receptor expression parent LMH line.
This cell line is estrogen responsive for the expression of endogenous yolk protein genes, and permits the analysis of estrogen responsive genes involved in the transport of yolk proteins and other nutrients to the oocyte.
These genes include apolipoprotein B and apoII as well as vitellogenin.
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. |
