Target Cell Name
Daudi
Target Cell Organism
Human
Target Cell Background
The Daudi cell line is composed of B lymphoblasts isolated from the peripheral blood of a Black,16-year-old, male, Burkitt's Lymphoma patient in 1967. These well-characterized B lymphoblasts have been extensively used in the study of leukemogenesis.

In Vitro 8-OH-dG Assay (Oxidative Stress)
Short Description
Daudi-cell based In Vitro 8-OH-dG Assay (Oxidative Stress)
Assay Description
8-Hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) is another critical biomarker for oxidative stress. It is one of the major products generated in oxidative DNA damage by ROS. DNA oxidative damage ELISA kits are available to assess 8-OH-dG levels as an oxidative stress marker.

Assay Type Details
Disturbance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), free radicals and antioxidant mechanisms is defined as the oxidative stress, or more precisely, it is an imbalance between the oxidant and antioxidant state in cells. This imbalance can cause harmful effects to cells and biomolecules, which ultimately causes adverse effects in the whole organism. Oxidative imbalance can target important proteinsand lipids in cells, which can increase the risk of developing a cancer. On the other hand, increased ROS production in cancer cells by certain cancer drugs can also arrest cancer cell cycle and cause senescence and apoptosis through oxidative stress.
