Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

The C2BBe1 cells, a subclone of Caco-2 cells, correspond to ATCC CRL-2102. The BCRP knockout C2BBe1 cells are adenocarcinoma, epithelial cells from a human caucasian male (aged 72 years) with functional knockout of the BCRP efflux transporter.

The three week production lead time begins on the Monday following a purchase, in the third week the plates are shipped on Tuesday for receipt on Wednesday or Thursday. As a biologic product that′s shipped at room temperature the cells must be processed immediately upon receipt.

Anwendung

Leistungsmerkmale und Vorteile

The Caco-2 subclone, C2BBe1 cells, are ideal for transporter analysis as they express multiple transporters, are human derived and grow in a homogenous monolayer that forms tight juntions which is necessary for efflux ratio analysis. Other benefits include:

• A functional knockout of the BCRP gene eliminates the reliance on chemical inhibitors to determine if a compound is an MDR1 substrate
• The 24 well Transwell format enables the BCRP knockout cells to be included in standard drug transporter protocols
• Human assay with no interference from animal inhibitors
• Overcome the limitations of RNAi and knockdown cell lines that arise from remaining transporter functionality
