Target Cell Name
Kasumi-1
Target Cell Organism
Human
Target Cell Background
Kasumi-1 is a myeloblast cell that was isolated from the peripheral blood of an acute myeloblastic leukemia Asian male patient. This cell line was deposited by H Asou in 1989.
Related Diseases
Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia; AML
Research Area
Oncology
Assay Name
In Vitro LDH Assay (Cell Viability)
Short Description
Kasumi-1-cell based In Vitro LDH Assay (Cell Viability)
Assay Description
Lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay (LDH assay) can also be used to determine viability of cancer cells. Upon treatment with a testing drug, if the drug can rupture the cell membrane, cells release LDH to the culture medium and released LDH can be quantified.
Assay Alternative Names
Lactate Dehydrogenase Leakage Assay
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.
Assay Subtype
Cell Viability Assay
Assay MOA
Cell-based Viability Assays Based on Cellular Enzymes and Proteins
