SNU-387 Cell Line

General Information
OrganismHomo sapiens, human
Cell Line DescriptionSNU-387 was isolated in 1990 by J.-G. Park and colleagues from a Korean patient with primary hepatocellular carcinoma who had been treated with transcatheter arterial embolization using lipopolysaccharide supplemented with doxorubicin and mitomycin C. Southern blot can detect hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA, but does not express HBV genomic RNA, and must be operated under biosafety level 2. SNU-387 cells form tumors in nude mice. The SNU-387 cell line has been widely used in scientific research, especially in oncology and hepatology.

Culture Conditions and Handling
SubculturingThe volumes used in this protocol are for 75 cm2 flasks; for culture vessels of other sizes, the amount of dissociation medium should be proportionally reduced or increased.
1. Remove and discard the culture medium.
2. Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) trypsin-0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum containing trypsin inhibitors.
3. Add 2.0 to 3.0 mL of trypsin-EDTA solution to the flask and observe the cells under an inverted microscope until the cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes). Note: To avoid clumping, do not agitate the cells by tapping or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach can be placed at 37℃ to facilitate dispersion.
4. Add 6.0 to 8.0 mL of complete growth medium and gently remove the cells by pipetting.
5. Add an appropriate amount of the cell suspension to a new culture vessel.
6. Incubate at 37℃.
Medium RenewalEvery 2 to 3 days.
Subcultivation RatioThe ratio of 1:3 to 1:6 is recommended.
Culture MediumRPMI-1640 + 10% FBS + 1% P/S
Culture ConditionsAtmosphere: Air, 95%; CO2, 5%; Temperature: 37℃
CryopreservationComplete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO
