Exploring gastric cancer with the NCI-N87 xenograft model
| 說明 | NCI-N87, also known as N87, is a human gastric cancer cell line and is widely utilized in cancer research, particularly gastric carcinoma studies. NCI-N87 cells contribute to our understanding of the digestion model of the gastric mucosa and play a role in the development of gastroretentive delivery systems. In pharmacological contexts, NCI-N87 cells have been used to explore the role of gentamicin as an anticancer agent. The gastric adenocarcinoma cell line NCI-N87 is tumorigenic and expresses the oncogenes myc and erb-B2, and are therefore instrumental in xenograft model studies. This cell line's inflammatory properties and response to agents like gentamicin can be assayed, as can its potential involvement in epithelial barrier integrity and function using intestinal permeability assays. The cells are known to express surface glycoproteins such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and TAG 72, but are negative for L-dopa decarboxylase (DDC). The cells show minimal positivity for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors and lack gastrin receptors, and they express receptors for muscarinic cholinergic agents. No amplification or rearrangements were observed in N-myc, L-myc, myb, and EGF receptor genes in these cells. In summary, the gastric epithelium cell line NCI-N87 serves as a model for gastric cancer research, epithelial cell behavior, drug delivery systems, and the metabolic pathways of nutritionally relevant compounds. |

Handling the NCI-N87 cell line
| 培養基 | RPMI 1640, w: 2.0 mM stable Glutamine, w: 2.0 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820700a) |
|---|---|
| 營養補充品 | Supplement the medium with 10% FBS, 10 mM HEPES, 2,5g/L Glucose and 1mM Sodiumpyruvate |
| 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. |
Quality assurance of N87 cell
| 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. |
