Specifications

Description Human ovarian granulosa cells are the sites of estrogen and progesterone production, making them critical in studying steroid biosynthesis, steroid-metabolizing enzymes, particular growth factors, and gonadotropins. Immortalized Human Granulosa Cells (HGL5) exhibit qualities consistent with primary ovarian granulosa cells; this includes cell retraction in response to protein kinase-A activation, the ability to produce progesterone and estradiol, and the enzyme integral to estradiol production, P450arom. All of these characteristics make T0650 an attractive model to study mechanisms relating to steroid biosynthesis and metabolism, in addition to other pathways.

Propagation Requirements
Use of PriCoatTM T25 Flasks (G299) or Applied Cell Extracellular Matrix (G422) is required for cell adhesion to the culture vessels. Grow cells in ECM-coated culture vessels unless otherwise specified in the Propagation Requirements below.

The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow IV medium available at abm, Cat. No. TM004. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: Cosmic Calf Serum* to a final concentration of 5% and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution (G255) to a final concentration of 1%.
Change media every 2-3 days.
Carbon dioxide (CO2): 5%, Temperature: 37.0°C.
* Do not use heat-inactivated serum for cell culture unless specified otherwise.

QC 1) Expression of viral genes quantified by PCR; 2) cAMP, progesterone and estradiol production were measured after induction with forskolin, dbcAMP, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), or luteinizing hormone (LH) treatments; 3) p450arom regulation characterized via North blot analysis

2. Sale of this item is subjected to the completion of a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) by the purchasing individual/institution for each order. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact us at [email protected].

 

3. All test parameters provided in the CoA are conducted using abm‘s standardized culture system and procedures. The stated values may vary under the end-user’s culture conditions. Please verify that the product is suitable for your studies by referencing published papers or ordering RNA (0.5 μg, Cat.# C207, $450.00) or cell lysate (100 μg, Cat.# C206, $600.00) to perform preliminary experiments, or alternatively use our Gene Expression Assay Service (Cat# C138). All sales are final.

 

4. We recommend live cell shipments for ease of cell transfer and this option can be requested at the time of ordering. Please note that the end-user will need to evaluate the feasibility of live cell shipment by taking into account the final destination’s temperature variation and its geographical location. In addition, we thoroughly test our cell lines for freeze-thaw recovery. If frozen cells were received and not recovered in your lab under the exact, specified conditions (using recommended culture vessel, media, additional supplements, and atmospheric conditions), a live cell replacement is possible at a cost (plus shipping).
