Description

Description: The drug resistant cell line MOR/0.2R has been derived from the parent line, MOR, by continuous exposure to increasing concentrations of doxorubicin (also known as adriamycin). MOR/0.2R accumulate lower levels of doxorubicin than the parent line and have been shown to overexpress multi drug resistance associated protein (MRP). Expression of a 190kDa membrane protein associated with the degree of drug-resistance has been indicated. Cells grow as easily detaching aggregates.

Also Known As:

Species: Human

Tissue: Lung

Growth Properties: Semi-adherent aggregates

Morphology:

Growth Medium: RPMI 1640 + 2mM Glutamine + 0.2µg/ml Doxorubicin + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).

Subculturing Procedure: Split subconfluent cultures (70-80%) 1:2 to 1:4 seeding at 2-4 x 10,000 cells/cm² using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C. It is recommended to culture the cells without drug after resuscitation until the first passage. These cells produce a lot of cell debris.
