A2780ADR Cell Line

Invented at NIH

Info

Catalogue Number 152707
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Adriamycin resistance
Parental Line A2780
Host Human
Tissue Ovary
Disease Keywords Carcinoma
Model Tumour line
Relevance The adriamycin-resistant cell line A2780ADR has been developed by exposure of the parent A2780 cell line (catalogue no. 152706) to adriamycin. A2780ADR is cross-resistant to melphalan and vinblastine. To retain resistance adriamycin has to be added to the media. The cells grow as a monolayer and in suspension in spinner cultures and are tumourigenic in immune deficient mice. Together with the cisplatin-resistant variant A2780cis (catalogue no. 152708_ these lines only differ in their exposure to a single drug and should facilitate the search for molecular changes responsible for the expression of pleiotropic drug resistance in human ovarian cancer.
Production Details Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:5 to 1:10 i.e. seeding at 5x1,000 to 2x10,000 cells/cm² using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C. Recommendation: culture cells without drug after resuscitation until growth has been fully established.
Conditional No
Research Area Cancer, Drug Discovery & Development
Growth/Phenotype Keywords Adherent
Recommended Growing Conditions RPMI 1640 + 2mM Glutamine + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS); treatment with 10E-7 M adriamycin at least once a week.
