In addition to the MTA mentioned above, other ATCC and/or regulatory permits may be required for the transfer of this ATCC material. Anyone purchasing ATCC material is ultimately responsible for obtaining the permits. Please click here for information regarding the specific requirements for shipment to your location.
Stimulation by other hormones or cAMP is not required for hormone secretion.
Propagation:
ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is F-12 Nutrient Mixture (Ham). To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium:
fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 2.5%
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 to 1:3 is recommended Medium Renewal: Add fresh medium at least twice per week
Remove medium, and rinse with 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution. Remove the solution and add an additional 1 to 2 ml of trypsin-EDTA solution. Allow the flask to sit at room temperature (or at 37C) until the cells detach.
Add fresh culture medium, aspirate and dispense into new culture flasks.
