This web site has the purpose of providing information related to products and services offered by Altogen Labs.
There are many new and exciting ways to study and work with modern technology in the field of cellular biology. From cloning to curing diseases, and from the creation of biofuels to stem cell research, there’s a virtually endless range of opportunity for unique and groundbreaking research to be done. The primary purpose of this website is to help encourage this by directing viewers to resources that are available for different cell types.
In each of the pages here, you will find information on different genes, whose names are listed, as well as some relevant information. Links will lead you to Altogen products for in vitro fertilization.
Transfection reagents are listed alphabetically, with 1-10 on this page. Use the navigation bar at the bottom of the page to find more transfection reagents.
3LL Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Lewis lung carcinoma cells.
- The “LL” stands for Lewis Lung, named after Dr. Margaret R. Lewis of the Wistar Institute in 1951
- Useful in studies of types of human lung cancer.
A204 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Human rhabdomyosarcoma cells.
- A204 Cell Line could be used to study certain types of cancer that occur throughout the human body.
- It is believed that rhabdomyosarcoma cells originate from skeletal tissue.
A549 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Human lung carcinoma cells.
- A549 refers to adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells.
- First developed in 1972 by D. J. Giard, et al. through the removal of cancerous lung tissue from a 58-year-old Caucasian male.
ASMC Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Aortic smooth muscle cells (ASMC).
- Useful in study of proinflammatory factors.
- Believed to participate directly in airway inflammation.
AsPC-1 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Human pancreatic cells.
- Useful in the study of pancreatic cancers.
- First developed through the removal of cancerous pancreatic tissue from a 62-year-old Caucasian female.
Astrocytes Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Primary astrocyte cells.
- Astrocytes are cells in living organisms that make up parts of the nervous system.
- Astrocytes may be useful in the study of certain studies of the spinal cord.
BMS2 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Bone marrow stromal cells (BMS).
- Bone marrow is the flexible material in the interior of most bones, in large bones, it is the source of new blood cells.
- The stroma is all tissue not directly involved making blood cells.
Caki-1 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Renal carcinoma cells.
- Developed through the removal of tissue from a 49-year-old caucasian male.
- It is believed that Caki-1 may be useful for studying the human proximal tubule epithelium.
Calu-6 Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Human renin-expressing cells.
- Developed through the removal of tissue from a 61-year-old Caucasian female.
- Human renin-expressing cells are believed to work with development of the structure of the kidney vascular system.
CFPEo Cell Line Transfection Reagent
- Transfection reagent used in Human trachea epithelium cells (Also known as HTEpC Cell Line.)
- Epithelial cells in the airways are responsible for lubricating the lungs, maintaining humidity, and cleaning the respiratory tract.
- May be useful in the study of cases of asthma, viral infection, fibrotic lung disease, and cystic fibrosis.
