Human
Target Cell Background
The T24 cell line was established from a transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in a female patient in 1973. Reports in the literature indicated a wide range of tumorigenicity for T24 when injected subcutaneously in immunocompromised murine hosts.

Short Description
T24-cell based In Vitro S-nitrosylation Assay (Oxidative Stress)
Assay Description
S-nitrosylation (attachment of NO to thiol side chains of the amino acid cysteine) and S-glutathionylation (attachment of GSH to thiol side chains of the amino acid cysteine) are two post-translational modification processes reported to increase with oxidative stress.
Assay Type
Oxidative Stress Assays
Assay Type Details
Disturbance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), free radicals and antioxidant mechanisms is defined as the oxidative stress, or more precisely, it is an imbalance between the oxidant and antioxidant state in cells. This imbalance can cause harmful effects to cells and biomolecules, which ultimately causes adverse effects in the whole organism. Oxidative imbalance can target important proteinsand lipids in cells, which can increase the risk of developing a cancer. On the other hand, increased ROS production in cancer cells by certain cancer drugs can also arrest cancer cell cycle and cause senescence and apoptosis through oxidative stress.
