Relevance | D34 Cell Line is derived from a leukoplakia biopsy. The cell line was notable in its proliferative capacity, considered immortal after having completed more than 100 PDs (population doublings ) when maintained on a feeder layer of irradiated 3T3 fibroblasts. D34 was categorised as having a moderate dysplasia pathology. |
Production Details | Biopsies were trypsinized and cultured until a growing population of cells was obtained in a 9-cm plate and then passaged once to give a stock culture that was frozen. All cells were maintained on irradiated 3T3 feeders, in 10H medium. The 3T3 feeder layer was removed by treatment with 0.02% EDTA prior to RNA and protein extraction. |
Conditional | No |
Research Area | Cancer, Drug Discovery & Development |
Recommended Growing Conditions | As per Cancer Res. 1997 Sep 15;57(18):3886-9. All cells were maintained on irradiated 3T3 feeders, in 10H medium (DMEM plus 10% FCS without added growth factors except hydrocortisone). |
