Descripción

Cell Line Origin

Human Caucasian neuroblastoma

Cell Line Description

BE(2)-C is a clonal sub-line of SK-N-BE(2) (ECCAC catalogue no. 95011815) which was isolated from bone marrow of a 22-month-old male with disseminated neuroblastoma in 1972. They are reported to be multipotential with regard to neuronal enzyme expression and display a high capacity to convert tyrosine to dopamine. The cells show a small, refractile morphology with short, neurite-like cell processes and tend to grow in aggregates.The Y chromosome could not be detected in this cell line by short tandem repeat (STR)-PCR analysis when tested at ECACC. It is a known phenomenon that due to the increased genetic instability of cancer cell lines the Y chromosome can be rearranged or lost resulting in lack of detection. The cell line is identical to the source provided by the depositor based on the STR-PCR analysis.

Application

Chemotherapy development, chromosome studies, drug resistance, differentiation studies.
