Immortalized Human Microglia (SV40) are derived from normal adult brain tissue and immortalized via SV40 large T antigen lentiviral transduction, granting them extended proliferation. They display a typical ramified morphology, express markers like Iba1, CD68, TREM2, and CD11b, and exhibits adherent culture properties.. Functionally, they engage in immune surveillance, synaptic pruning, and inflammation. When stimulated by LPS or β-amyloid, they release IL-1β, TNF-α, and nitric oxide. They are non-tumorigenic in vivo. These cells are cryopreserved at early passages. They’re ideal for studying neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and CNS-targeted drugs.

Microglia research has long been constrained by the availability of primary human sources. Immortalized Human Microglia (SV40 cell line) offers a consistent and accessible model that allows the establishment of in vitro models for studying the physiological and pathological properties of microglia cells. They can also be used to study neuron-microglia interactions and mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory conditions
