  • Name: Melan-s1 cell line
  • Organism: Mouse
  • Tissue: Skin
  • Morphology: Small, oval-fusiform
  • Model: Immortalised non-cancerous cell lines
  • Description: The melan-s1 melanocyte cell line was irreversibly differentiated from immortal murine melanoblasts (melb-s1, also available from CancerTools.org). The melb-s1 line is an immortal cell line derived from the skin of neonatal Ednrbs/Ednrbs C3H mice. The melan-s1 melanocytes are derived from melanoblasts isolated from endothelin receptor B mutant mice. These cells may be useful for pigment cell biology studies.
  • Application: Melanocyte cell biology

Applications

  • Application: Melanocyte cell biology

Handling

  • Growth medium: RPMI + FBS (10%) + TPA (200 nM) + cholera toxin (CT) (200 pM)
  • Storage conditions: liquid N2
