- Name: Bovine Alveolar Type II (BATII) cell line
- Research fields: Immunology
- Tissue: Alveolus
- Growth properties: Cobblestone. Fixed (2D), 3D (matrigel) or air-liquid interface (ALI)
- Model: Immortalised Line
- Description: Differentiates into Alveolar Type I (ATI)-like cells when cultured at air-liquid interface, generating a mixed population of Alveolar Type II (ATII) and ATI in a pseudostratified epithelial cell layer. Used in co-culture with bovine pulmonary arterial endothelial cells as a model of the bovine alveolus.
- Production details: Generated by the lentiviral transduction of SV40 and hTERT into primary bovine alveolar type II epithelial cells at passage 1.
Handling
- Format: Frozen
