Descripción

General description

SCC627, the luciferase-expressing derivative of SCC626, retains the capability for invasive growth, as well as the expression of many of the hallmark genes of OPSCC. These include cytokeratin, E-cadherin, BRCA2, p16, and EGFR. SCC627 was successfully used to optically track metastasis through the lymphatic space to the lungs, which is anatomically relevant to human oropharyngeal cancers. Along with SCC625 and SCC626, this series of cell lines comprise a suitable platform for mechanistic studies of OPSCC and for testing therapeutic intervention strategies.

Application

mEERL cells are verified to be of mouse origin and negative for human, rat, Chinese hamster, Golden Syrian hamster, and non-human primate interspecies contamination, as assessed by a Contamination Clear panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic ServicesCells tested negative for infectious diseases against a Mouse Essential CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.Cells tested negative for mycoplasma.

Features and Benefits

The SCC627 mEERL Mouse E6/E7/hRas Oropharynx Epithelial Luciferase Cell Line expresses luciferase and is useful in the study of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in an immunocompetent, syngeneic model.

Target description

The head and neck cancers represent the sixth most common class of cancer. Among them, incidents of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) are on the rise, and a majority of them are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). Although successful management methods exist, local recurrence and nodal metastasis continue to result in mortality in certain cases. Historically, insights into HPV-induced transformation have been obtained in the context of the cervical cancer and anogenital warts models. While much of it is relevant to OPSCC, it will be beneficial to have the systems in which the effects of HPV infection can be studied in a context specific to OPSCC.The parental strain for SCC627, the mouse E6/E7/hRas/luciferase (mEERL) cell line, was established by the retroviral transduction of the HPV E6 gene, the HPV E7 gene, and the human hRas G12V gene into the primary mouse oropharyngeal epithelial cells. Due to the synergistic effects of the three oncogenes, the resulting cell line (also available as SCC626, the mEER cell line) was shown to be capable of cultivation, anchorage-independent growth in vitro, and the formation of poorly-differentiated, aggressively metastatic tumors following orthotopic injection into immune-competent mice.SOURCESCC627 is a luciferase-expressing derivative of the mEER cell line (SCC626). SCC626 was established by the retroviral transduction of the HPV16 E6 gene, HPV16 E7 gene, and the human hRas gene into the primary oropharyngeal epithelial cells isolated from a male C57BL/6 mouse. oropharyngeal.

Storage and Stability

mEERL cells should be stored in liquid nitrogen until use. The cells can be cultured for at least 10 passages after initial thawing without significantly affecting the cell marker expression and functionality.
