Product description: The E3 STn Cell Line is a mouse mammary carcinoma cell line E3 which expresses human MUC1 and Sialyl-Tn (STn) and can be used for vaccine and immunotherapy development. Changes in the composition of glycans added to glycoproteins and glycolipids are characteristic of the change to malignancy. Sialyl-Tn is an O-linked disaccharide that can be carried on various glycoproteins including MUC1 which is highly expressed in breast cancer. Both STn and MUC1 are considered promising targets for immunotherapy for the treatment of breast cancer.
Conditional: Yes
Production details: E3 cell line stably transfected with murine ST6GalNAc I leading to expression of the MUC1 STn epitope. The E3 cell lines were developed from the 410.4 cell line by transfection of the hygromycin resistance gene with the MUC1 gene. Calcium phosphate transfection of E3 cells was performed using the pbabe-neo gene with or without the cDNA encoding murine B7.1. Stable transfection of murine ST6GalNAc I was performed to obtain the cell line E3-STn.
Additional notes: E3-hMUC1 stably transfected with murine ST6GalNAc I leading to expression of both MUC1 and STn
