Description
The WERI-Rb-1 cell line was created from a retinoblastoma found in a one-year-old girl's eye. These cells have 47 chromosomes and 38% of them were duplicated, while a few had more than two sets of chromosomes. The cells were missing some normal chromosomes, but had an extra X chromosome, and no Y chromosome was found in the sample. These cells can survive and grow on specific agar types, and they have a round shape and grow in clusters, but don't form colonies. When viewed under a microscope, changes were seen on their surface. It takes approximately four days for their numbers to double, and they can't be cloned in soft agar. These cells are commonly used in animal cell differentiation and tumor therapy research, especially in the study of the biochemical pathways that lead to cell differentiation. CD BioSciences has a transfection kit that is specifically designed for use with the WERI-Rb-1 cell line in research.
