CELL LINES

Contributor Information
- Name M.S. Hamilton
- Institute University of Birmingham
Tool Details
- Tool name: JIM1 Cell Line
- Tool type: Cell Lines
- Tool sub-type: Primary
- Organism: Human
- Tissue: Blood
- Gender: Female
- Cancer type: Human multiple myeloma
- Disease: Cancer
- Growth properties: Suspension
- Model: Tumour line
- Conditional: Yes
- Description: JIM1 was established from plasma myeloma cells derived from pleural fluid of an advanced multiple myeloma patient, and is homoplastic with the cell line JIM3. It allows in vitro study and comparison of genetic instability in myeloma tumour lines and in vitro study of the effects of DNA repair deficiency in myeloma tumour lines. JIM1 shows typical plasma cell phenotype (CD38, PCA-1 8A and CD24 positive), deficient in DNA repair.
- Research area: Cancer; DNA Damage and Repair; Drug Discovery & Development
- Production details: Derived from plasma myeloma cells from pleural fluid of advanced multiple myeloma female patient.
- Cellosaurus ID: CVCL_2532
