SCC7 Cell Line

General Information
Organism Mus musculus, mouse
Cell Line Description SCC7 is a spontaneously derived squamous cell carcinoma cell line originating from C3H/He mice. In the field of oncology, it serves as a widely utilized syngeneic mouse model, particularly in the study of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). SCC7 cells exhibit an epithelial morphology characterized by aggressive growth, high tumorigenicity, and the capacity to form solid tumors that recapitulate the microenvironment of human squamous cell carcinoma. This cell line is a preferred model for evaluating the efficacy of radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT), and immunotherapy. Furthermore, given the well-documented presence of hypoxic regions within large SCC7 tumors, this cell line is extensively employed in the development of hypoxia-targeted prodrugs and in the investigation of tumor angiogenesis mechanisms.

Culture Conditions and Handling
Subculturing 1. Remove and discard the culture medium.
2. Briefly rinse the cell monolayer with PBS (Ca²⁺/Mg²⁺-free) to thoroughly remove residual serum.
3. Add 2.0 mL of 0.25% Trypsin-0.53 mM EDTA solution, and observe continuously until the cell monolayer has dispersed (typically takes 3 to 7 minutes).
4. Add complete growth medium to neutralize the trypsin, and gently pipette to prepare a single-cell suspension.
5. Aliquot the cell suspension into new culture vessels.
Medium Renewal 2 to 3 times per week
Subcultivation Ratio A split ratio of 1:4 to 1:10 is recommended
Culture Conditions Atmosphere: Air, 95%; CO2, 5%; Temperature: 37°C
Cryopreservation Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% to 10% (v/v) DMSO
