- Description: JIM1 is a myeloma tumour cell line. JIM1 was established from plasma myeloma cells derived from pleural fluid of an advanced multiple myeloma patient. JIM1 is homoplastic with the cell line JIM3. JIM1 allows in vitro study and comparison of genetic instability in myeloma tumour lines and in vitro study of the effects of DNA repair deficiency in myeloma tumour lines. JIM1 shows typical plasma cell phenotype (CD38, PCA-1 8A and CD24 positive) and is deficient in DNA repair.
- Production details: Derived from plasma myeloma cells from pleural fluid of advanced multiple myeloma female patient.
- Additional notes: STR profiling showed that this cell line is of female origin
- Cellosaurus id: CVCL_2532
Applications
- Application notes: STR profiling showed that this cell line is of female origin
