OE33

Human

The cell line OE33, also known as JROECL33, was established from the adenocarcinoma of the lower oesophagus (Barrett's metaplasia) of a 73 year old female patient. The tumour was identified as pathological stage IIA (UICC) and showed poor differentiation.

OE33-cell based In Vitro Telomere Length Analysis Assay (Senescence)

For the analysis of telomere length, terminal restriction fragment anal ysis technique has been the commonly used technique for a long time.

Cellular Senescence in Cancer Assays

Cell senescence is described as an irreversible physiological event of cell growth arrest, which is known to be caused by alterations of telomeres, oxidative stress, DNA damage and some oncogenes. Inhibition of the program of senescence is one of the main features of tumor cells and it has been reported that cancer cells can be induced to undergo senescence by chemo- and radiotherapies and genetic alterations. Telomeres help to prevent uncontrolled cell proliferation and the absence of telomeres results in aneuploidy and cell death.
