HuP-T4 is a human pancreas cancer cell line derived from a patient with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. It was established from the ascitic fluid of the patient and is used to study pancreatic cancer biology.
HuP-T4 cells are epithelial and grow in an adherent manner. Their karyotype shows a modal chromosome number of 77. These cells are known to produce carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), both of which are important tumor markers in pancreatic cancer.
The recommended culture medium for HuP-T4 cells is 80% MEM (Minimum Essential Medium with Earle’s salts), supplemented with 20% heat-inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (h.i. FBS), 1% non-essential amino acids, and 1% sodium pyruvate.
HuP-T4 cells require Biosafety Level 1 (BSL-1) precautions, as they are not known to pose significant health risks under normal laboratory conditions. However, standard safety protocols should be followed.
The HuP-T4 cell line has been tested for mycoplasma contamination and has been confirmed negative in tests using DAPI staining, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, and PCR assays, ensuring its suitability for research.
