Tool Details

  • Tool name: A2780ADR Cell Line
  • Tool type: Cell Lines
  • Tool sub-type: Continuous
  • Parental cell line: A2780
  • Organism: Human
  • Tissue: Ovary
  • Cancer type: Carcinoma
  • Disease: Cancer
  • Growth properties: Adherent
  • Model: Tumour line
  • Conditional: Yes
  • Description: The adriamycin-resistant cell line A2780ADR has been developed by exposure of the parent A2780 cell line (catalogue no. 152706) to adriamycin. A2780ADR is cross-resistant to melphalan and vinblastine. To retain resistance adriamycin has to be added to the media. The cells grow as a monolayer and in suspension in spinner cultures and are tumourigenic in immune deficient mice. Together with the cisplatin-resistant variant A2780cis (catalogue no. 152708_ these lines only differ in their exposure to a single drug and should facilitate the search for molecular changes responsible for the expression of pleiotropic drug resistance in human ovarian cancer.
  • Research area: Cancer; Drug development
  • Production details: Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:5 to 1:10 i.e. seeding at 5x1,000 to 2x10,000 cells/cmÂ?‹Â› using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37Â?‚°C. Recommendation: culture cells without drug after resuscitation until growth has been fully established.
  • Cellosaurus ID: CVCL_1941
