HT-29 is a human colon cancer cell line widely used in biological and cancer research. HT-29 cells, originally extracted from a 44-year-old white woman in 1964 by Jorgen Fogh, form a compact monolayer while displaying similarities to the intestinal epithelial cells of the small intestine. In preclinical studies, HT-29 cells were studied for their ability to differentiate to mimic real colon tissue in vitro, a property that makes HT-29 useful for epithelial cell studies. This cell line is a suitable transfection host and has applications in cancer and toxicology research. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a versatile biomarker used to monitor physiological processes, visualize protein localization, and detect transgene expression in vivo. When excited by blue light (maximum wavelength 395 nm), it can emit green light (maximum wavelength 509 nm). By combining the advantages of GFP and HT-29 cell lines, GFP stable cell line-HT-29 provides researchers with a valuable tool. It can be used in bioimaging studies, studying the cellular behavior of cancer cells, and testing the effectiveness of drugs against colorectal cancer.
GFP stable cell line-HT-29 is mainly used in advanced biological research and medical experiments. 1) Protein iocalization: Using a GFP stable cell line - HT29 can help researchers track the location of specific proteins within cells. By linking the GFP gene to another gene of interest, researchers can visually observe the protein produced by that gene in living cells. 2) Gene expression studies: This cell line is also used to study gene expression because they express a GFP reporter gene that fluoresces when the gene of interest is expressed. This allows scientists to easily monitor gene expression levels. 3) Drug discovery: In drug research, it is used to screen potential drugs for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases such as colon cancer. Due to its high transfection efficiency, it can help researchers identify potential therapeutic drugs by observing changes in GFP fluorescence intensity. 4) Cell-based detection: GFP stable cell line - HT29 can be used for various cell-based detection, such as cell proliferation, cell migration and cytotoxicity detection, because the fluorescence of GFP is easier to detect compared with traditional colorimetric assays.
