GEM-199 is a goldfish tumor cell line resistant to γ-rays, used for radiation mutation studies and photoreactivation analysis in aquatic model systems.
The GEM-199 is a tumor cell line derived from an erythrophoroma of goldfish (Carassius auratus) red pigment cell. GEM-199 adherent culture properties. The research demonstrated that GEM-199 has a greater resistance to γ-rays compared to mammalian cells and CAF-MM1 cells, which were derived from the normal fin tissue of goldfish. The photoreactivation following UV irradiation was observed in GEM-199 cells, impacting both survival and mutation rates. Therefore, these cells can be used to investigate the lethal and mutational effects of various radiations.
