Target Cell Name
SK-MES-1
Target Cell Organism
Human
Target Cell Background
SK-MES-1 is a human lung cancer cell line that displays epithelial morphology and grows as monolayers in tissue culture. These cells exhibit a cytokeratin expression pattern typical of simple epithelia (i.e., CK7, CK8, CK18, and CK19), and similar to that found in adenocarcinomas.

Assay Name
In Vitro EdU Assay (Cell Proliferation)
Assay Description
5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) can easily be com bined with DNA during replication. Unlike the BrdU assay, the EdU assay is rapid, sensitive and does not require previous denaturation of the specimen.
