The Mouse Fap stable cell line CT26 is a genetically modified cell line designed to stably express Fibroblast Activation Protein (Fap), a cell surface glycoprotein associated with tumor growth and progression. The Fap gene, which codes for Fap, is expressed in stromal cells across a range of organs and is involved in tissue repair and extracellular matrix remodeling. Derived from the CT26 mouse colon cancer cell line, this stable cell line is an invaluable resource for researching the relationship between tumor cells and the surrounding environment. Under typical culture conditions, CT26 cells can develop in monolayers because they have an epithelial shape and stick to culture surfaces.

The researchers used genetically encoded FAPdL5**, targeted to various subcellular locations, to bind a heavy atom-substituted dye (MG2I-ester), forming an on-demand TAP-producing singlet oxygen. Stable HEK-293 cell lines expressing FAP in distinct compartments were generated, selected by FACS for equal expression, and verified by fluorescence microscopy. Photocytotoxicity was assessed using MTS assays and cell death was characterized by flow cytometry post-illumination. FAP locations included cytoplasm, ER lumen, membrane, mitochondria, and nucleus.

Figure 1 shows that the sensitivity of HEK cells and CT26 cells with mitochondrial localization of FAP to singlet oxygen is significantly different. (doi: 10.3389/fchem.2020.592941.)Figure 1. HEK cells and CT26 cells with mitochondrial localization of FAP have significantly different sensitivities to singlet oxygen generation. CT26 cells show significant resistance to singlet oxygen generated by mitochondria. (Liang P, et al., 2020)

Using Creative Biogene's Mouse Fap Stable Cell Line - CT26 allows improved experiments to study the role of FAP in tumor cells with a CT26 cell line that more closely approximates cancer biology. This improvement improves the stability and consistency of experiments and helps to better understand the potential of FAP in cancer treatment.

1. Tumor Microenvironment Studies: Examines the relationships that exist between stromal cells and tumor cells, with a particular emphasis on the function of Fibroblast Activation Protein (Fap) in the development and spread of tumors. 2. Cancer Therapy Research: Using the expression of Fap in CT26 cells, this study assesses possible treatments that target Fap to stop the growth of tumors. 3. Extracellular Matrix Remodeling: Examines Fap's role in extracellular matrix remodeling and tissue repair, which is crucial to comprehending cancer metastasis. 4. Drug Screening: Offers a means of identifying anti-cancer medications that might impact pathways connected to Fap, thereby offering new perspectives on treatment approaches. 5. Tumor-Stroma Interaction: Focuses on the ways in which tumor behavior is influenced by stromal cells expressing Fap, which can help develop treatments that target the tumor microenvironment.
Customer Q&As
How stable is Mouse Fap expression? Is there detailed stability experimental data?

A: Mouse Fap Stable Cell Line-CT26 has been tested for multiple passages and Fap expression remains stable. We conducted experiments with multiple consecutive passages and verified the expression level of Fap through qPCR and Western Blot. The results showed that there was no significant change in the expression of Fap.

Has this cell line been functionally validated? Has it been tested in in vivo or in vitro experiments?

A: This cell line has been functionally verified in vitro, proving that the Mouse Fap it expresses has biological activity. We confirmed the functionality of Fap through Fap-related enzyme activity assay, cell invasion and migration experiments. Meanwhile, the cell line was also tested in in vivo mouse models, showing consistent results.

Does Fap expression have any effect on cell growth or behavior? Is there any relevant experimental data?

A: We conducted cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration experiments, and the results showed that Fap expression had no significant effect on the growth and behavior of CT26 cells. Experimental data, including cell proliferation curves, apoptosis analysis, and migration assay results, all support this conclusion.

Consistent expression

Recently, I bought the stable cell line CT26 from Mouse Fap for my study on the dynamics of the tumor microenvironment. The cell line's ability to express Fibroblast Activation Protein (Fap) consistently was crucial to my research because it enabled me to learn more about the complex relationships that exist between tumor cells and the surrounding stroma. The derived CT26 cells were a dependable starting point for experiments because they adhered to culture surfaces well and kept their epithelial shape. All things considered, this product's performance and consistency have impressed me, and it has greatly advanced my research goals.
