This cell line was genetically engineered to stably express the Milano mutant of human apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1-M) in CHO-K1 cells. The APOA1 gene on chromosome 6 encodes a protein related to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. APOA1 serves as a cofactor of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), promotes the synthesis of plasma cholesterol esters, and is mainly involved in transporting cholesterol in tissues to the liver for excretion. APOA1 is associated with membranes and contributes to lipid transport even after secretion through the Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum. The APOA1 gene can produce coding and non-coding variants through alternative splicing. ApoA-I Milano was originally discovered by Dr. Cesare Sirtori of Milan, who also demonstrated that its presence significantly reduced cardiovascular disease, although it resulted in lower HDL levels and higher triglyceride levels. Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) are commonly used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and research. Adherent cells are suitable for typical in vitro culture conditions, grow rapidly, and can stabilize their protein expression through genetic modification.

Patients carrying the Milano mutation (R173C) in the apolipoprotein (apo) A-I gene exhibit notably reduced plasma HDL levels. Surprisingly, despite this lipid profile, they do not manifest premature atherosclerosis. The researchers conducted a comparative study of cellular lipid mobilization in human apoA-I and apoA-IMilano. They aimed to evaluate the impact of the Milano variants on lipid mobilization by measuring cholesterol and phospholipid efflux from cells to these proteins as well as rHDL particles containing them and mouse serum. The results showed that receptors containing the Milano variant showed no higher lipid efflux function in all tests compared to wild-type apoA-I and in some cases even more lipid efflux than wild-type apoA-I receptors. Outflow is lower. In addition, experimental results of cholesterol ester hydrolysis in foam cells found no difference between apoA-IMilano and apoA-Iwt. The combined findings indicate that the Milano variant of apoA-I does not exhibit greater cellular lipid mobilization than wild-type apoA-I, suggesting that the potential anti-atherosclerotic effects it provides may not be due to its promotion of cellular lipids' ability to mobilize.

The results in Figure 1 demonstrate ABCA1-mediated efflux into lipid-free apoA-I or apoA-I Milan from macrophages. (doi: 10.1161/ATVBAHA.107.148403.)Figure 1. Researchers examined the cholesterol efflux potentials of apoA-I Milano and apoA-I. In J774 macrophages that had ABCA1 upregulated by acLDL enrichment and cAMP exposure, they employed rHDLs. Milano demonstrated apoA-I-like efficiency in stimulating ABCA1-mediated efflux. (Weibel GL, et al., 2007)

The Human APOA1-M Stable Cell Line - CHO-K1 product from Creative Biogene offers a constant and dependable source of APOA1-Milano (APOA1-M) protein for in vitro research, which could improve similar trials. The effective expression of APOA1-M by this stable cell line guarantees repeatability in studies examining its potential for cholesterol efflux and other associated functions. A stable cell line provides a more standardized and controlled system than recombinant proteins, which may differ in purity and activity across batches. The cell line produces APOA1-M that is consistently high-quality and functioning, so researchers can conduct tests with confidence.

1. Biopharmaceutical Research: APOA1-M provides an important tool for studying high-density lipoprotein metabolism, cholesterol transport, and gene regulation in an in vitro culture environment. Through stable expression in CHO-K1 cells, its potential applications in drug development and treatment can be explored. 2. Genetic Engineering: Genetic modification of CHO-K1 cells makes it a stable expression platform for APOA1-M, providing a reliable tool for protein expression in research and production processes. This engineering treatment improves the protein expression level of the cell line, which helps efficient drug production and disease research.
Customer Q&As
Is the expression of APOA1-M stable? Will there be changes after long-term culture or multiple passages?

A: Human APOA1-M Stable Cell Line-CHOK1 has been tested for long periods of time and multiple passages, and the expression of APOA1-M remains stable. The expression level of APOA1M was verified by qPCR and Western Blot, and the results showed no significant changes.

What is the verification method for APOA1-M expression? Can you provide experimental data support?

A: We verified the expression of APOA1-M by qPCR and Western Blot. The qPCR results showed that the expression level of APOA1M mRNA was stable in different passages. Western Blot results showed that the expression level of APOA1M protein was consistent in each passage. Specific experimental data and maps can be provided upon request.

What types of experiments is this cell line suitable for? Has it been functionally verified?

A: Human APOA1M Stable Cell Line-CHOK1 is suitable for APOA1-related lipoprotein research, metabolic disease research and drug screening. Functional validation included lipoprotein synthesis and secretion experiments, and the results showed that APOA1M exerts its expected functions in these processes. We also performed cell metabolism experiments to confirm its functionality.

Good shopping experience

Judging from the user experience, the cell growth of this human APOA1-M stable cell line is very stable. During the culture process, the cells showed consistent growth status and no abnormalities occurred. This was very helpful in my experimental work and I was able to perform cell experiments accurately.
