Transplantable Murine Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cell Lines
This innovation involves the creation of novel cell lines for studying cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) in mice. These cell lines, derived from UV-induced cSCC tumors in BALB/c mice, recapitulate the mutational signature and driver mutations found in human cSCC. Developing the cell lines from an inbred mouse strain allows for studies involving...

KM Cells - A Metastatic Cell Line and Method of Producing
In this study, researchers at the University of Arizona investigated an early cancer invasion event using a unique in vivo model. Muscle invasion was tested by the ability of prostate cancer cells to colonize the inferior surface of the respiratory diaphragm of male NGS mice, invade into and through to the superior surface. They isolated and compared...

Design and Application of Novel Ligand-Induced Split-Protein Systems
This invention is a split protein system that functions as a biotechnological chemically-induced dimerization (CID) tool. These CID systems are useful for biological research to control numerous outputs in living organisms such as inducing the activation of a specific protein, protein localization, and inducing transcription. This novel CID system can...

GL261-luc2 Model
GL261 (mouse glioma 261) is an in vivo model system used to study glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). This technology is the GL261 cell line stably transfected with the luc2 gene (GL261-luc2) for the monitoring of intracranial mouse tumors. GL261-luc2 is a brighter version than the original GL261-luc line.

HEK Cell Line Expressing Human EP4 Prostanoid Receptors
Nucleotides 360-1890 from the human EP4 prostanoid receptor were PCR amplified from the small intestine, and digested with SspI and ScaI. The product was cloned into the plasmid ECoRV. This plasmid was digested with HindIII and XhoI, and the product was cloned into pCEP4, and transfected into 293-EBNA cells. Transformed lines were selected with hygromycin....

A Vector System for Direct Cloning of Eukaryotic Gene Constructs
Yeast-Agrobacterium-Bacteria (YAB) is a combination of two technologies: yeast recombination capabilities and Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT). Generation of ATMT constructs usually requires PCR-amplification of DNA fragments and multiple cloning steps into binary Agrobacterium vectors. YAB is a plasmid vector that can be used...

HEK Cell Line Expressing Human FP Prostanoid Receptors
University of Arizona researchers have created human embryonic kidney cells expressing the human FP prostanoid receptors. These G-coupled receptors are widely found in smooth muscle such as the gastrointestinal tract and in bronchial tissue. As such, the new cell lines are expected to be a useful research tool for investigating receptor activity: they...
