MKN45 Cell Line

General Information
OrganismHomo sapiens, human
Cell Line DescriptionMKN45 cells are a human gastric cancer cell line that was established from biopsy specimens from patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. These cells are widely used as an in vitro model of gastric cancer to study the mechanisms underlying tumor development and to test the efficacy of potential therapeutic agents. MKN45 cells exhibit many characteristics of gastric cancer cells, including the ability to form colonies in vitro and to form tumors when injected into immunocompromised mice. MKN-45 cells are epithelial in nature and grow as adherent cells in culture. They express various biomarkers associated with gastric cancer, such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and E-cadherin, making them useful for diagnostic and therapeutic studies. In addition, MKN-45 cells are often used to evaluate chemotherapeutic agents and targeted therapies because they respond to treatment and are able to mimic the clinical behavior of human gastric tumors.

Additional InfoMKN-45 cells have been used to study the role of various signaling pathways in gastric cancer, including the Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/Akt, and MAPK/ERK pathways. These pathways are known to be dysregulated in a variety of cancers, including gastric cancer, and targeting them with therapeutic agents has shown promise in preclinical studies. MKN-45 cells have also been used to test the efficacy of various chemotherapeutic agents, including cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and docetaxel.

Culture Conditions and Handling
Subculturing1. Remove old medium from adhered cells and wash with PBS without calcium and magnesium. For T25 flasks, use 3-5 ml PBS and for T75 flasks, use 5-10 ml.
2. Then completely cover the cells with Accutase, using 1-2 ml for T25 flasks and 2.5 ml for T75 flasks.
3. Allow the cells to incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
4. After incubation, combine the suspended and adherent cells and centrifuge.
5. After centrifugation, carefully resuspend the cell pellet and transfer the cell suspension to a new flask containing fresh medium.
Subcultivation RatioThe ratio of 1:3 to 1:5 is recommended.
Culture Medium80% RPMI 1640 + 20% h.i. FBS
Culture ConditionsAtmosphere: Air, 95%; CO2, 5%; Temperature: 37°C
CryopreservationFrozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
