Neuromics is excited to announce the release of two more immortalized cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) types. Our primary CAFs are some of our top-selling cell types, so we continue introducing immortalized versions to complement the primary cells.
- Immortalized Human Ovarian CAFs (cat. CAF112-IM)
- Immortalized Human Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma CAFs (cat. CA117S-IM)
We immortalize our primary CAFs by injecting hTert-lentiviral particles under specially formulated media. A Puromycin-resistant gene is expressed under the RSV promoter, which allows us to select the transduced cells. While normal CAFs can be passaged 3-5 times, immortalized CAFs can be passaged >10 times.
