| Application | FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY HCEC-B4G12 cells, serving as an ideal model of differentiated human corneal endothelial cells (HCEC), have found crucial applications in researching the preservation of corneal function under adverse conditions. They play a pivotal role in investigating how factors like oxidative stress and inflammation impact the health and viability of corneal endothelial cells (CECs). With inflammation being a leading cause of blindness and its effects on CECs well-documented, studying the mechanisms through which these conditions affect CEC function and survival using HCEC-B4G12 cells provides essential insights for the development of strategies to mitigate vision impairment and improve ocular health. | |||

HCEC-B4G12 is a clonal subpopulation established in 2005 from the parental cell line HCEC-12, derived from normal corneal epithelial cells of a 91-year-old woman. These cells were transformed with the early region of the SV40 genome, which includes genes encoding large T-antigen and small t-antigen. The subclone is recognized as representing differentiated cells of the corneal endothelium. B4G12 cells are characterized by their polygonal shape, strong adherence, and formation of a strict monolayer. They have a smooth cell surface, express ZO-1 and occludin, and show limited but detectable connexin-43 expression. Additionally, B4G12 cells abundantly express collagen IV and have minimal collagen III expression, making them a valuable model for studying corneal endothelial characteristics.- ONLINE INQUIRY
