Renca murine kidney adenocarcinoma cell line

The Renca murine kidney adenocarcinoma cell line is a widely used in vitro model derived from a spontaneous renal adenocarcinoma in a BALB/c mouse. This cell line retains characteristics of the original tumor and is commonly utilized for cancer research.

MB49 murine bladder carcinoma cell line (Cat# SCC148) was supplied by EMD Millipore Corporation (Temecula, CA). UMUC-3 and T24 human urinary bladder cancer cell lines (Cat# CRL-1749 and Cat# HTB-4), and Renca murine kidney adenocarcinoma cell line (Cat# CRL-2947), were obtained from ATCC (Manassas, VA). Each cell line was cultured and maintained (no more than 10 passages after initial thawing) according to the company’s instructions. Mycoplasma tests (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) were performed periodically to ensure that there was no contamination. Both UMUC-3 and Renca cell lines were further transduced with GlowCell 16 FLuc-F2A-GFP lentivirus (Biosettia, San Diego, CA) carrying both firefly luciferase and green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes. Briefly, the cells were seeded in 6-well plates (0.25 × 106 cells/well) and incubated for 3 days with the virus (2×107 IU/well) in the presence of polybrene (10 μg/mL). To ensure more than 95% of cell purity, the cell lines were analyzed and sorted for GFP expression using flow cytometry. The successful transduction was further confirmed by imaging, using an EVOS FL Auto Fluorescence microscope (Life Technology, Carlsbad, CA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
