Description

Aedes albopictus clone C6/36 is an insect cell line that was originally isolated from the neonate larvae of the Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) and serves as a key model for arbovirus research, including dengue, Zika, and chikungunya studies. C6/36 exhibits fibroblast-like morphology, adherent culture properties and is non-anchorage dependent. C6/36 cells maintain a diploid karyotype and demonstrate robust growth in standard insect cell culture conditions. This cell line is not tumorigenic in SCID or immunosuppressed mice, but it can grow colonies in semisolid medium. This cell line is highly permissive to viral replication, making them invaluable for virology and vector-pathogen interaction studies. Their ability to propagate a wide range of arthropod-borne viruses underscores their utility in vaccine development, antiviral screening, and molecular pathogenesis research.

Application

  • C636 cells are widely employed in arbovirus propagation, viral tropism assays, and insect innate immunity research. Their compatibility with flaviviruses and alphaviruses facilitates high-titer virus production for vaccine development. Additionally, these cells are used to study mosquito-specific antiviral responses, RNAi pathways, and genetic manipulation of vector competence.
