LS 174T

Human

LS 174T is a cell exhibiting epithelial morphology that was isolated from the colon of a White, 58-year-old, female adenocarcinoma patient with colorectal cancer. This cell line was deposited by Northwestern University and can be used in cancer research.

In Vitro MTT Assay (Cell Viability)

LS 174T-cell based In Vitro MTT Assay (Cell Viability)

The MTT (3-(4,5-dimeth ylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay is one of most commonly used assays for cancer drug screening. This assay has been very popular among cancer researchers as an initial assay in drug discovery. NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductase or dehydrogenases in viable cells can reduce MTT into purple-colored formazan, which can then be solubilized for spectrophotometric analysis.

Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays

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.
