Description

MKN-45 is a human gastric cancer cell line derived from poorly differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma. MKN-45 cells have been used extensively in gastric cancer development study and therapeutic agent assessment. MKN-45 gastric cancer cells express wild-type p53 and are characterized by homozygous deletion of p16CDKN2/MTS1/INK4A and p15MTS2, as well as amplification of c-met oncogene and promoter mutation of E-cadherin. MKN-45 cells exhibit both normal and metaplastic gastric mucosa phenotype with preserved differentiation capacity.

Why choose MKN-45 from AcceGen?

MKN-45 is derived from poorly differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma of a 62-year-old woman. Cells are cryopreserved to ensure the best viability. Each vial contains more than 1×10^6 cells in 1ml volume. MKN-45 cells are characterized by spindle-shaped or oval-shaped morphology and present a hypertriploid karyotype with 8% polyploidy. Subculture cells at a split ratio of 1:3 to 1:5 every 5-10 days using trypsin/EDTA.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are MKN-45 cells?

    MKN-45 cells are a human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line commonly used in gastric cancer research, drug screening, and anti-cancer therapy studies.

  • How do I start culturing MKN-45 cells?

    Thawing cells: Quickly thaw frozen cells in a 37°C water bath for no more than 2 minutes. Gradually transfer the cells into pre-warmed RPMI 1640 complete medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS).

    Seeding cells: Transfer the cell suspension to a culture flask and incubate at 37°C in a 5% CO₂ incubator.

  • How do I passage MKN-45 cells?

    Collecting cells:
    Suspension cells: MKN-45 cells are partially adherent and partially in suspension. Gently shake the flask to evenly distribute the suspension cells.
    Adherent cells: Use trypsin to detach adherent cells. First, remove the old medium and add a small amount of trypsin solution to cover the cells, then incubate at 37°C for 1-2 minutes.

     

    Stopping trypsinization: Add fresh pre-warmed complete medium to neutralize the trypsin, and gently pipette up and down to detach the cells completely.

     

    Centrifugation: Transfer the cell suspension to a centrifuge tube and centrifuge at 300xg for 5 minutes.

     

    Resuspending cells: Carefully remove the supernatant and resuspend the cell pellet in pre-warmed complete medium.

     

    Seeding new flasks: Dilute the cell suspension to the desired density and seed into new culture flasks.

  • How do I perform morphological observation of cells?

    Regularly observe cell morphology under a microscope, noting any changes in shape, confluency, and the presence of abnormal cells or contaminants.
