Descripción

Cell Line Origin

Mouse C57BL/6 calvaria

Cell Line Description

The osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 has been established from a C57BL/6 mouse calvaria and selected on the basis of high alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in the resting state. Cells have the capacity to differentiate into osteoblasts and osteocytes and have been demonstrated to form calcified bone tissue in vitro. Mineral deposits have been identified as hydroxyapatite. Expression of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) mRNA and protein has been shown to be regulated by treatment with TGF β and bFGF. Prostaglandin F2a has been reported to stimulate DNA synthesis and proliferation by up-regulation of insulin-like growth factor I receptors. MC3T3-E1 secrete collagen and express murine leukemia inhibitory factor (mLIF) in RNA.

Application

MC3T3-E1 Cell Line has been used to study and propose an actin filament cytoskeleton analysis framework. It has also been used to study the effect of biodegradable magnesium and magnesium alloys on selected properties of these cells stimulated by direct cell/material interaction.
