- Name: Melan-Arf-1 cell line
- Organism: Mouse
- Tissue: Skin
- Morphology: Small, oval-fusiform
- Model: Immortalised non-cancerous cell lines
- Description: The melan-Arf-1 and -2 cell lines are immortal melanocyte cell lines derived from the skin of neonatal Arf–/– C57BL/6J mice. These cells are Arf-null but p16Ink4a-competent. These cells are visibly pigmented and display morphology typical of normal melanocytes and can be useful in studying the role of Arf in melanoma progression.
- Application: Melanocyte cell biology
Applications
- Application: Melanocyte cell biology
Handling
- Growth medium: RPMI + FBS (10%) + TPA (200 nM) + cholera toxin (CT) (200 pM)
