Comments: Anecdotal: Have been flown in space on shuttle flight STS-76 and on Shenzhou-8 to study growth and cytoskeletal changes in microgravity (PubMed=10352142; DOI=10.1016/j.actaastro.2013.06.007)., Karyotypic information: Has lost chromosome Y., Characteristics: Can be induced to differentiate into macrophages by several factors such as phorbol ester (PMA) and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-phorbol acetate (TPA)., Population: Caucasian., Part of: LL-100 blood cancer cell line panel., Part of: Human Protein Atlas, Cell Atlas panel., Part of: Cancer Dependency Map project (DepMap) (includes Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia - CCLE)., Problematic cell line: Partially contaminated. Some ATCC stocks were cross-contaminated by K-562 initially (PubMed=7759961). The problem was corrected and subsequent stocks have been confirmed to carry only U-937.., Group: Space-flown cell line (cellonaut).

Authentication Plan

dkNET can assist you in preparing authentication plans for cell lines to comply with the NIH Submission Policy. The information can be used while planning your experiments or submitting grant applications. The authentication plan for the cell lines is based on the International Cell Line Authentication Committee (ICLAC)'s "Cell Line Checklist for Manuscripts and Grant Applications" and the example "Authentication of of Key Biological and/or Chemical Resources "(Bandrowski A). For best practices for authenticating cell lines, check our Authentication Reports services.
