Target Cell Name
NCI-H2122
Target Cell Organism
Human
Target Cell Background
NCI-H2122 [H2122] cells are lymphoblasts isolated in 1989 from a pleural effusion metastasis derived from a 46-year-old female smoker. Use these cells in lung cancer research.
Target Cell Alternative Name
H2122
Related Diseases
Non Small Cell Lung Cancer
Research Area
Oncology
Assay Name
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
