Renseignements généraux
| Description | The CMT93 cell line is a murine colorectal carcinoma model established from a chemically induced rectal tumor in a C57BL/ICRF mouse. The tumor originated following exposure to methylazoxymethanol acetate (MAM acetate), a potent carcinogen. CMT93 was derived from the fourth in vivo transplant generation of the original tumor and cultured using selective trypsinization techniques to isolate epithelial populations while removing mesenchymal contaminants. Through repeated subculturing and purification, the resulting cell line exhibited a stable epithelial morphology and growth pattern. In vitro, CMT93 cells grow in coherent epithelial clumps and exhibit hallmark features of differentiated intestinal epithelial cells. Electron microscopy revealed the presence of microvilli with glycoprotein strands, desmosomal junctions, and occasional acinus-like structures, suggesting partial retention of normal rectal epithelial architecture. These cells are highly adherent and grow to confluence in approximately 7 days following a 1:2 split. While predominantly epithelial, early passages included mixed populations, which were resolved through sequential selective subculturing. The line has been maintained for numerous passages and cryopreserved successfully for long-term use. CMT93 is widely used in gastrointestinal cancer research, particularly in studies exploring colorectal carcinogenesis, epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, immune responses, and microbial-host interactions. It is also featured in short tandem repeat (STR) profiling studies to support intraspecies authentication of mouse cell lines, confirming its unique identity and value as a validated model in preclinical research. |

| Milieu de congélation | As a cryopreservation medium, we use complete growth medium (including FBS) + 10% DMSO for adequate post-thaw viability, or CM-1 (Cytion catalog number 800100), which includes optimized osmoprotectants and metabolic stabilizers to enhance recovery and reduce cryo-induced stress. |
| Décongélation et culture des cellules |
|
| Atmosphère d'incubation | 37°C, 5% CO2, humidified atmosphere. |
| Conditions d'expédition | Cryopreserved cell lines are shipped on dry ice in validated, insulated packaging with sufficient refrigerant to maintain approximately −78 °C throughout transit. On receipt, inspect the container immediately and transfer vials without delay to appropriate storage. |
| Conditions d'entreposage | For long-term preservation, place vials in vapor-phase liquid nitrogen at about −150 to −196 °C. Storage at −80 °C is acceptable only as a short interim step before transfer to liquid nitrogen. |
Contrôle de la qualité et analyse moléculaire
| Stérilité | Mycoplasma contamination is excluded using both PCR-based assays and luminescence-based mycoplasma detection methods. To ensure there is no bacterial, fungal, or yeast contamination, cell cultures are subjected to daily visual inspections. |
