MB49 In Vitro LDH Assay (Cell Viability)

This assay is to provide MB49-based In Vitro LDH Assay (Cell Viability) to accelerate our client's oncology projects. The assay will be customized according to the specific requirements. Please contact our scientists to discuss more details.

MB49

Mouse

MB49 cells are derived from C57BL/Icrf-a' mouse bladder epithelial cells that were transformed by a single 24-hour treatment with the chemical carcinogen 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) on the second day of a long term primary culture. Transformed cells transplanted into syngeneic mice were shown to generate carcinomas. While of male origin, karyotype analyses indicate the loss of the Y chromosome in 100% of the cells analyzed. This abnormality is a frequent early event in human bladder cancer.

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.

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.
