EZT-NCIN-1 Protocol.
Description
Cell to transfect:
Designations: NCI-N87
Cell Synonyms: CRL-5822, N87, human gastric carcinoma cell
Depositors: J Park
Growth Properties: adherent
Organism: Homo sapiens
Morphology: epithelial
Source: stomach
Disease: gastric carcinoma
Derived from metastatic site: liver
Isolation date: 1976
Receptors: acetylcholine, muscarinic, expressed [23078]
Tumorigenic: Yes
Oncogene: myc +; erb B2 +
Cytogenetic Analysis: near diploid; DM were present in 64% of cells examined
Gender: male
Comments: NCI-N87 cells express the surface glycoproteins carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and TAG 72, and are L-dopa decarboxylase (DDC) negative. They were minimally positive for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors and lacked gastrin receptors. They were found to express receptors for muscarinic cholinergic agents.
Features of The Transfection Reagent:
- Broad spectrum for the transfection of large plasmid, mRNA, siRNA, and/or other type of nucleic acids, which is best for co-transfection of different type and/or size of nucleic acids.
- Unique formulation-maximize transfection performance in NCI-N87 cells.
- Extremely gentle to cells
- 0.5 ml is able to transfect about 1000 wells of 24-well plate
- Deliver single or multiple plasmids
- Compatible with serum
- Suitable for Reverse Transfection
- Compatible with transfection in any plate formats
- Economical: High efficiency means less amount of nucleic acid & reagent is needed
- Developed and manufactured by EZ Biosystems
Data
FIG. 1. High throughput test of transfection efficiency (determined as RLU/mg) on NCI-N87 cells after transfection of luciferase reporter gene by using our 172 proprietary transfection formulas and several most popular commercial transfection reagents. The yellow box showed the results of 4 commercial transfection reagents. The red lines marked our candidate formulas with the highest transfection efficiency for NCI-N87 cells. This test result was confirmed with repeat experiments. The one that showed the optimal balance of potent & low cytotoxicity among those candidate formulas after flow cytometry analysis on the percentage of 7AAD positive cells was later named as this NCI-N87 Cell Avalanche Transfection Reagent.
For Other Cells
NCI-N87 Cell Avalanche® Transfection Reagent (human gastric carcinoma cell) can also be used on the following cells with high transfection efficiencies.
AGS Cell
Caki-1 Cell
MDCK Cell
Vero Cell
293 Cell
PC-3 Cell
AR42J Cell
Capan-1 Cell

BxPC-3 Cell
AsPC-1 Cell
Recommended protocols for these cells will be provided with the reagent. The protocols usually provide satisfactory transfection efficiency with invisible cytotoxicity. However, optimization may be needed for certain type of cells. Optimizations may include: the amount of DNA and this transfection reagent; cell density; transfection reagent/DNA ratio, or incubation time for the mixture of transfection reagent/DNA etc. For best transfection result, we recommend using the respective cell type/cell line specific Avalanche transfection reagents. Those reagents have been optimized on both recipes and protocols, and have been proved to have the best transfection results for the respective cell lines or primary cells. You can easily find the respective Avalanche transfection reagents specific for your cells by using the filters of our product list.
