Product Overview

Description

TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) Stress Granules Assay Cell Line is a fluorescent cell-based assay cell line for high content screening. This cell line allows the quantification of pathological TDP-43 spheres in the nucleus and cytosol. This cell model consists of a U2OS cell line stably expressing inducible fluorescent TDP-43. These cells can be further expanded for more than 30 passages.

Features

Creative Biolabs offers this cell line as a "stable cell line" in a cryopreserved vial. Each vial of the U2OS cell line stably expressing fluorescent TDP-43 contains 3 million cells, and Creative Biolabs provides 2 vials of cells for each order. These cells can be proliferated in vitro and can be guaranteed to be expanded for more than 30 generations according to the instructions provided in the technical sheet.

Application Notes

Applications::

The TDP-43 Stress Granules Assay cell line allows the quantification of pathological TDP43 spheroids.
This model allows the evaluation of the distribution of TDP-43 protein in living cells and the study of protein localization patterns in space and time.
This model provides a strategy for evaluating drugs that have no cell permeability.
This cell model has been applied to HCS analysis based on image algorithms to test the process of cytosolic and nucleosphere formation.

Mycoplasma Testing

The cell line has been screened using the luciferase based mycoplasma detection kit to confirm the absence of mycoplasma species.

Sterility Testing

Sterility testing was performed in accordance with USP and EP regulations. All of our sterility testing is performed in an isolator or clean room environments. The cell line has been screened using the membrane filtration testing methods to confirm the absence of aerobic, anaerobic and fungi microorganisms.

Genetic Stability Testing

Cell genetic stability study was perfomed under ICH guidelines. We provide guidance on the appropriate testing program upon your requirements.
