Description

Origine de la lignée cellulaire

Mouse embryo fibroblast, LRP-deficient, homozygous

Description de la lignée cellulaire

The cell line PEA-13 is homozygous for a disruption of the gene for low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP). PEA-13 was derived from fibroblasts from day 15 C57BL/6x129 F1 hybrid mouse embryos. Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PEA) was used to select murine fibroblasts genetically deficient in LRP. Together with the cell lines PEA-10 (Sigma Catalogue number. 97040310) and MEF-1 (Sigma Catalogue number. 98061101) an experimental system is available for the analysis of cellular uptake of functionally diverse ligands and the effect of LRP-deficiency. This is of importance since LRP-deficient mouse embryos die early during gestation.

Application

Study of LRP and LRP deficiency.

Milieu de culture

DMEM + 2mM Glutamine + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).
