Target Cell Name
U87 MG
Target Cell Organism
Human
Target Cell Background
U-87 MG is a cell line with epithelial morphology that was isolated from malignant gliomas from a male patient, likely with Glioblastoma. Use these cells in your neuroscience and immuno-oncology research.

Assay Name
In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability)
Short Description
U87 MG-cell based In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability)
Assay Description
Resazurin is a non-fluorescent (blue in color) component of alamar Blue reagents, which can enter viable cells. After entering in to viable cells, resazurin is converted to resorufin by NADH, NAD (P) H or FADH2-dependent cellular oxidoreductase.
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.
