Tool Details

  • Tool name: HCT 116 ADAM17 Cell Line
  • Tool type: Cell Lines
  • Tool sub-type: Continuous
  • Parental cell line: HCT 116
  • Organism: Human
  • Tissue: Colon
  • Cancer type: Digestive / Gastrointestinal cancer
  • Disease: Cancer
  • Growth properties: Invasion, migration
  • Model: Knock-In
  • Conditional: No
  • Description: Chemotherapy (5-fluorouracil) treatment has been shown to result in acute increases in transforming growth factor-a, amphiregulin, and heregulin ligand shedding in vitro and in vivo correlating with significantly increased ADAM-17 activity. Small interfering RNAmediated silencing and pharmacologic inhibition confirmed that ADAM-17 was the principal ADAM involved in this prosurvival response. HCT 116 ADAM17 Cell Line showed that overexpression of ADAM-17 significantly decreases the effect of chemotherapy on tumor growth and apoptosis.
  • Research area: Cancer; Drug development
  • Production details: HCT116 cells were cotransfected with 10 ÎĚ?Ÿg of a plasmid containing hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged full-length mouse ADAM-17 (HA-ADAM-17) and a construct expressing a puromycin resistance gene. Stably transfected cells were selected and maintained in medium supplemented with 1 ÎĚ?Ÿg/mL puromycin.
