Descripción

Cell Line Origin

Human post pubertal normal, immortalised with SV40, serum-free

Cell Line Description

This cell line is a derivative of the normal human prostate cell line PNT1A (Sigma cat no. 95012614) adapted to grow in serum-free medium. PNT1A was established by immortalisation of normal adult prostatic epithelial cells by transfection with a plasmid containing SV40 genome with a defective replication origin. The primary culture was obtained from the prostate of a 35 year old male at post mortem.

Culture Medium

Serum-free Stemline Keratinocyte Medium II (Sigma cat no. S0196) + Keratinocyte Medium Supplement (Sigma cat no. K3136). To freeze cells use 50:50 fresh:conditioned medium + 10% DMSO

Subculture Routine

Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:2; 5% CO₂; 37 ºC. Mixture of attached and suspension cells. To harvest attached cells use gentle agitation. If cells do not detach, then try using 0.25% trypsin. A trypsin inhibitor must be used to inactivate trypsin. Seed contents of one ampoule into a 25 cm² flask.
