Luciferase reporter cell line MKN45 is engineered to express luciferase reporter genes for studying gene regulation and signal transduction pathways. The human gastric cancer cell line MKN45, which has traits of a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, is the source of these cells. The luciferase reporter system makes it possible to quantify gene expression levels quantitatively and sensitively in response to different treatments or stimuli. The tumorigenic capacity of MKN45 cells is enhanced by specific genetic abnormalities, such as mutations in tumor suppressor and important oncogenes. The cell line is an important resource for cancer research, especially when it comes to understanding the molecular processes that underlie the onset and spread of stomach cancer. The normal cell culture conditions for the MKN45 cell line include 37°C, 5% CO2, and a humidified environment. The medium used to sustain cells is RPMI-1640, which is enhanced with antibiotics and fetal bovine serum (FBS). MKN45 cells exhibit epithelial shape and attach effectively to plastic surfaces treated with tissue culture.

Although its rates have recently decreased, gastric cancer (GC) still has a very high death rate globally. It is the fifth most prevalent disease in women and the fourth in males. Using the Luciferase Reporter Cell Line - MKN45, the researchers looked into how miR-135b affected the cisplatin resistance of gastric cancer (GC) cells. They used a dual luciferase reporter gene experiment to verify that miR-135b directly targets MST1, so linking the MAPK signaling pathway to the advancement of GC. The preparation, transfection, and testing of high CDDP-resistant GC cell lines in CDDP-treated nude mouse models demonstrated the crucial role MST1 plays in GC formation and drug sensitivity. The modulation of MST1 by miR-135b and its effect on GC pathogenesis are highlighted in this study.

Figure 1 depicts the results of a dual luciferase reporter assay and analysis using microRNA.org, demonstrating that MST1 is targeted by miR-135b in MKN45 and MKN28 cells. (doi: 10.1096/fj.201800618RRR)Figure 1. The MKN45 Luciferase Reporter Cell Line was utilized by the researchers to exhibit how MST1 functions as a target gene for miR-135b. In MKN45 cells, they evaluated MST1-wild type and mutant constructs using dual luciferase reporter assays. (Zhou J, et al., 2019)

1. Gastric cancer research: Based on the human gastric cancer cell line MKN45, the Luciferase reporter gene was introduced to study gene regulation and signal transduction pathways, and to explore the molecular mechanisms of gastric cancer occurrence and spread. 2. Gene expression quantification: The Luciferase reporter system can sensitively quantify gene expression levels under different treatment or stimulation conditions, providing an accurate and sensitive gene expression analysis tool. 3. Gastric cancer model construction: MKN45 cells have the characteristics of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, and specific gene abnormalities enhance their tumor formation ability, providing an important resource for studying the occurrence and treatment of gastric cancer.
Customer Q&As
Luciferase Reporter Cell Line - What is the luciferase activity of the MKN45 reporter cell line, and is it suitable for long-term experiments?

A: The MKN45 Luciferase reporter cell line has high-level and stable luciferase activity and is suitable for long-term experiments. This cell line has been optimized to maintain stable luciferase expression levels under different experimental conditions, making it suitable for use in a variety of biological research and drug screening. Its high sensitivity and low background noise make experimental results more reliable and accurate. In addition, the cell line can maintain stable luciferase activity during long-term culture and multiple passages, ensuring data consistency and experimental reproducibility.

How to ensure optimal detection of the luciferase signal when performing luminescence experiments using the MKN45 Luciferase reporter cell line?

A: To ensure optimal detection when performing luminescence experiments using the MKN45 Luciferase reporter cell line, there are several key points that should be noted. First, select an appropriate luminescent substrate (such as D-luciferin) and ensure its purity and quality to maximize the luminescent efficiency of luciferase. Secondly, accurately control the time and amount of substrate addition to avoid signal deviation caused by excess or deficiency. Third, use luminescence detection equipment with high sensitivity and low background noise, such as a microplate luminescence detector, and set appropriate measurement parameters (such as integration time, measurement mode, etc.). In addition, ensure healthy cell status and avoid signal fluctuations caused by poor cell status.

How to process and analyze large amounts of luminescence data generated by MKN45 Luciferase reporter cell lines to obtain reliable results?

A: Answer: When processing and analyzing large amounts of luminescence data generated by the MKN45 Luciferase reporter cell line, the data should first be preprocessed, including removing outliers and background noise. Next, use professional data analysis software or statistical software to normalize the data to eliminate systematic errors between experiments. Then, the data are quantitatively analyzed through the standard curve or internal standard method to ensure the accuracy of the results. In order to verify the reliability of the results, it is recommended to repeat the experiment multiple times to obtain the average value and standard deviation. In addition, data can be presented in the form of charts or images to visually reflect experimental results and trends.
