CSC-I9007L
Description
Immortalized Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells-hTERT were developed from human tissues transduced with a lentiviral expression vector containing the hTERT gene. The cell line was continuously cultured for more than 20 passages without showing signs of growth retardation or replicative senescence. The Immortalized Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells are useful for setting up in vitro bioassays for studying angiogenesis in e.g. wound healing or metastasis as well as bioassays for testing the angiogenic properties of novel drugs. Additionally, the cell line is the perfect starting material for genetic engineering to create important disease models.

What is the principle of the telomerase transfection method?

Telomerase activation is a common step in various cell immortalization methods. By expressing human telomerase re-verse transcriptase (hTERT), telomerase activity can be activated, telomere length can be maintained, chromosome telomere degradation can be prevented, and epithelial cell immortalization can be induced. The immortalized cells established by telomerase transfection can maintain the physiological characteristics of normal cells.
