LT2 Immortalized Pancreatic Mesenchymal Cell Line
MerckThis cell line arose from a primary culture of dispersed human fetal pancreatic cells. A single pancreas gland at 18 weeks gestation was dispersed by micro-dissection and collagenase digestion (2 mg/ml for 50 minutes at 37°C). Following washout of enzyme, dispersed cells were incubated with magnetic beads coupled to monoclonal antibodies specific to CD90 though a DNA linkage. Magnetic isolation and the detachment of the magnet…
