- Description: UM-UC-9 is a human transitional cell carcinoma cell line. This cell line is tumorigenic in athymic nude mice. UM-UC-9 demonstrated efficient gene transduction via an adenoviral vector when compared to several of the other cells evaluated. UM-UC-9 also showed intermediate levels of Coxsackie adenovirus receptor (CAR) expression of the cells tested. The UM-UC panel of urothelial carcinoma is a diverse range of 11 patient derived cell lines developed by the university of Michigan that have been well-categorised in the literature. These cells were assessed for their susceptibility to adenoviral mediated gene delivery, tumour growth in nude mice and differences in genetic alterations.
