一般資訊
| 說明 | C-33 A cells originate from the cervical tissue of a 66-year-old Caucasian female diagnosed with uterine cancer. This cell line is characterized by a unique genetic alteration in the TP53 gene, where a point mutation at codon 273 results in an arginine to cysteine substitution, leading to elevated expression of the p53 protein. This mutation plays a critical role in the pathophysiology of the cells, influencing their growth properties and tumorigenic potential. Notably, C-33 A cells are confirmed to be tumorigenic. When introduced into immunodeficient nude mice, these cells have the capability to form undifferentiated carcinomas, which highlights their utility in cancer research, particularly in studies aimed at understanding the mechanisms of tumor initiation and progression in cervical cancer. Furthermore, these cells are negative for both DNA and RNA of human papillomavirus (HPV), distinguishing them from many other cervical cancer cell lines which often carry HPV integrations. This aspect makes C-33 A cells particularly valuable for studying cervical cancer that develops independently of HPV infection, offering insights into alternative pathways of carcinogenesis. |

處理方式
| 培養基 | EMEM (MEM Eagle), w: 2 mM L-Glutamine, w: 2.2 g/L NaHCO3, w: EBSS (Cytion article number 820100a) |
|---|---|
| 營養補充品 | Supplement the medium with 10% FBS and 1% NEAA |
| 解離試劑 | Accutase |
| 傳代培養 | Remove the old medium from the adherent cells and wash them with PBS that lacks calcium and magnesium. For T25 flasks, use 3-5 ml of PBS, and for T75 flasks, use 5-10 ml. Then, cover the cells completely with Accutase, using 1-2 ml for T25 flasks and 2.5 ml for T75 flasks. Let the cells incubate at room temperature for 8-10 minutes to detach them. After incubation, gently mix the cells with 10 ml of medium to resuspend them, then centrifuge at 300xg for 3 minutes. Discard the supernatant, resuspend the cells in fresh medium, and transfer them into new flasks that already contain fresh medium. |
| 流體更新 | 2 to 3 times per week |
| 冷凍培養基 | 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. |
| 細胞解凍與培養 |
|
| 培養環境 | 37°C, 5% CO2, humidified atmosphere. |
| 運送條款 | 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. |
| 儲存條件 | 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. |
品質控制與分子分析
| 不孕症 | 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. |
