- Description: Epithelial ovarian cancer cell line derived from poorly differentiated serous solid tumors. Cell line was derived from solid tumor of chemotherapy naive patient who presented poorly differentiated (grade 3) serous papillary cystadenocarcinoma at stage IIC
- Production details: Established using the Scrape method where tumor tissue was scraped into a 100mm plate with complete OSE medium and maintained for 40 days with medium replaced weekly. After 40 days, 80% confluence was attained and cells were divided intwo 2 petri dishes and further divided in a proportion of 2:3 once a week for the first 15 passages and 1:2 twice a week until passage 70. Subsequently, cells were divded in a proportion of 1:5 twice a week.
- Additional notes: Patient 1946 had no known familial history of cancer and passed from post-operative complications
Handling
- Growth medium: OSE medium contains 10% FBS, 0.5ug/mL amphotericin B and 50 ug/mL gentamicin
- Atmosphere: Hypoxic condition of 5%O2 and 5%CO2
- Cultured in antibiotics: Amphotericin B and Gentamicin
