Safety and Packaging

Cat. No. CSC-RR01250
Description THP1-CRE-Luc cell line is engineered to express luciferase reporter gene under the control of CRE (cAMP Response Element). It is a useful cell model for studying the CREB/CRE signaling pathway in THP1 cells.
Gene CRE-Luc
Host Cell THP1
Host Cell Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Stability This cell line is stable at least 10 passages.
Product Type Signaling Pathway Reporter Cell Lines
Applications Applied to detect cAMP response element (CRE)-driven signaling (e.g., PKA pathway activation); suitable for studying GPCR-mediated signaling, hormone effects, or compounds regulating cAMP-dependent processes.
Size Form One vial of frozen cells, typically >1x10^6cells/vial
Shipping Dry ice
Storage Liquid nitrogen
Revival Rapidly thaw cells in a 37°C water bath. Transfer contents into a tube containing pre-warmed media. Centrifuge cells and seed into a 25 cm2 flask containing pre-warmed media.
Growth Properties Suspension cell line
Mycoplasma Negative
Format One frozen vial containing millions of cells
Storage Liquid nitrogen
Safety Considerations

The following safety precautions should be observed.

1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.

2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.

3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.

4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.

5. All waste should be considered hazardous.

6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.

Great for monitoring cAMP/GPCR signaling

We purchased this line to investigate GPCR signaling in a monocytic background. The response to Forskolin was immediate and high-fold, proving the functionality of the CRE-Luc construct. It simplifies the monitoring of cAMP levels significantly compared to traditional ELISA methods. Very satisfied with the performance.
