PharmaOnco™ HEK293-Tg(Human GITR) Stable Cell Line, Single Clone

CAT#: ITS-0822-HMM159
Product Type: Stable Cell Line
Short Description
Creative Biolabs offers HEK293-Tg(Human GITR) stable cell line which the GITR gene stably expressed in HEK293 cells.
Description
The HEK293-Tg(Human GITR) stable cell line is a cell line derived from human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells that has been genetically modified to overexpress the human glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR). GITR is a protein that is involved in modulating immune responses and has been studied for its potential role in cancer immunotherapy. The stable cell line can be used as a tool for studying the function of GITR and its signaling pathways, as well as for screening potential therapeutic agents that target GITR.

Background
The GITR gene, also known as Glucocorticoid-Induced TNFR-Related Protein, encodes a protein that is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. This protein is involved in the regulation of various immune responses, particularly in the activation of T cells. It has been studied for its potential role in cancer immunotherapy, as it has been shown to enhance the anti-tumor immune response when targeted with agonistic antibodies. Additionally, the GITR gene has also been implicated in the regulation of autoimmune diseases and inflammation.
Unit Size
1 x 10e6 cells/vial, Frozen
Sterility Testing
Creative Biolabs provides sterility testing in accordance with USP and EP regulations. All of our sterility testing is performed in an isolator or clean room environments. The cell line has been screened using the membrane filtration testing methods to confirm the absence of aerobic, anaerobic and fungi microorganisms.
Identity Testing
Identity testing is required for newly established cell lines. Isoenzyme analysis is used to confirm the identity of the species of a cell line. Alternative methods for identity testing include DNA fingerprinting, STR analysis and karyology.
Virological Safety Testing
A broad range of viruses is susceptible to affecting human cell lines. We can provide in vivo/vitro virus safety assays by utilizing various animal systems. These viruses include: adventitious viruses, bovine viruses, human and simian viruses, porcine viruses, retrovirus and rodent viruses.
Genetic Stability Testing
We perform cell genetic stability studies under ICH guidelines. We can provide guidance on the appropriate testing program upon your requirements.
Mycoplasma Testing
The cell line has been screened using the luciferase based mycoplasma detection kit to confirm the absence of mycoplasma species.
Shipping
Dry Ice
Storage
Frozen cells should be stored in a liquid nitrogen tank (-150°C~-190°C). After thawing, cells should be immediately transferred to the appropriate culture medium and maintained under recommended culture conditions.
Handling Notes
Frozen cells should be thawed immediately upon receipt and grown according to handling procedure to ensure cell viability and proper assay performance.
Note: Do not freeze the cells upon receipt as it may result in irreversible damage to the cell line.
Disclaimer: We cannot guarantee cell viability if the cells are not thawed immediately upon receipt and grown according to handling procedure.
Warnings
Avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles
