Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line Establishment

Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line Establishment

Alfa Cytology is a leading provider of preclinical services for therapy development in pancreatic cancer (PC). Here, we offer pancreatic cancer cell line establishment and identification services to help researchers and professionals confirm treatment effects or identify other options for follow-up research.

Overview of Pancreatic Cancer

Although relatively uncommon worldwide (2.5% of all forms of cancers), its poor prognosis ranks pancreatic cancer the fourth or fifth in malignancy mortalities. Surgery is still the main treatment for pancreatic cancer, but only 15% to 20% of pancreatic cancer patients can be resected at diagnosis with a poor prognosis after resection. Although the currently available adjuvant therapies appear to provide a survival benefit, they are only moderate, and standard protocols have not been established.

Urgency of Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line Research

Pancreatic cancer stimulates a pro-fibroproliferative response in vivo, thereby expanding the space between tumor cells with reactive non-tumor components (e.g., inflammatory cells and fibroblasts), and reducing the number of viable cancer cells in each macroscopic field of view. Based on this biological nature, some available cell lines are already outdated. Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish and develop more biological resources to facilitate the study of pancreatic cancer.

The establishment and characterization of pancreatic cancer cell lines is critical in the development of pancreatic cancer therapies.Fig. 1. Classification of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines according to their characteristics. (Shichi, Y.; et al., 2022)

Our Services

Alfa Cytology is committed to providing our customers with optimal customized services to support basic and translational pancreatic cancer research projects.

Pancreatic Cancer Cell Isolation

The isolation of pure and viable pancreatic cancer cells is a prerequisite for conducting reliable cancer research.

  • Rapid isolation of untouched human tumor cells
  • Untouched human tumor cells from PDX mouse models
  • Untouched mouse tumor cell isolation

Pancreatic Cancer Cell Genetic Engineering

The high heterogeneity of pancreatic cancer results in multiple gene subtypes. Alfa Cytology establishes stable cell lines through genetic engineering to obtain different subtypes of pancreatic cancer cells.

Gene Synthesis

Clone Construction

Virus Packing

Cell Transfection

Antibiotics Screening

Our Technology Platform

Pure, uncontacted cancer cells of different tumor entities can be generated through tumor cell isolation kits and appropriate isolation protocols. Then, specific subpopulations are isolated by positive isolation, enabling high-quality analysis of tumor cell groups.

  • Whole exome sequencing (WES)
  • Mutation pattern identification
  • Flow cytometry
  • Gene set enrichment
