特徴
- 概要:HT-29 cells are a well-known human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line widely used in biological and medical research.
- These cells were first isolated from a primary colorectal tumor in a 44-year-old Caucasian female in 1964 and have since become a valuable resource for researchers looking to study the biology of human cancers.
- One of the key features of HT-29 cells is their sensitivity to standard chemotherapy drugs for colorectal cancer, such as 5-fluorouracil and oxaliplatin.
- Additionally, these cells express characteristics of mature intestinal cells, such as enterocytes and mucus-producing cells, which has led to their use in studies focused on food digestion and bioavailability.
- Under standard growth conditions, HT-29 cells display an undifferentiated phenotype and consume high amounts of glucose.
- However, when grown in a glucose-free medium or treated with different inducers like butyrate or acid, these cells can be modulated to express different pathways of enterocyte differentiation, making them a valuable model for studying the molecular mechanisms involved in cell differentiation.
- Morphological, physiological, and biochemical markers, including the formation of a monolayer of cells with tight junctions and a typical apical brush border, characterize the differentiated phenotype of HT-29 cells.
- These differentiated cells express brush-border-associated hydrolases distinct from the small intestine, have brush-border microvilli, and can produce a relatively high level of mucin.
- Stepwise adaptation of exponentially growing HT-29 cells to increasing concentrations of methotrexate (MTx) results in the transformation of these cells into mucus-secreting differentiated cells, which can be used in the transport studies of different compounds, the study of the mucus-inducing properties of varying food compounds, or in studies regarding microorganism adhesion and survival.
- The differentiated HT-29 cells exposed to methotrexate are named HT29-MTx and have been characterized concerning tight junction formation, development of confluent monolayers, and production of a mucous layer.
- Overall, HT-29 cells have proven to be a valuable tool for researchers looking to study the biology of human cancers and the molecular mechanisms involved in cell differentiation.
- They continue to be widely used in medical and biological research to this day.
