Target Cell Name
4T1
Target Cell Organism
Mouse
Target Cell Background
4T1 is a breast cancer cell line derived from the mammary gland tissue of a mouse BALB/c strain. 4T1 cells are epithelial and are resistant to 6-thioguanine. In preclinical research, 4T1 cells have been used to study breast cancer metastasis as they can metastasize to the lung, liver, lymph nodes, brain and bone.

Short Description
4T1-cell based In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability)
Assay Description
Resazurin is a non-fluorescent (blue in color) component of alamar Blue reagents, which can enter viable cells. After entering in to viable cells, resazurin is converted to resorufin by NADH, NAD (P) H or FADH2-dependent cellular oxidoreductase.
Assay Type
Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays
Assay Type Details
Uncontrolled proliferation is one of the main features of cancer cells. Cell-based in vitro assays are employed to determine whether test molecules possess direct cytotoxic/antiproliferative effects in cancer cells.
