Immortalized MS-/- Mouse Alveolar Macrophage Cells (ZK1) | T0676

-/- SR-AI/II-/- (MS-/- ) mice and were immortalized with the J2 retrovirus to establish the Immortalized MS-/- Mouse Alveolar Macrophage Cells (ZK1). ZK1 cells exhibit the macrophage morphology, functional activity, and the ability to bind to and ingest particles are reduced due to the deficiency in MARCO and SR-AI/II scavenger receptors. It is a valuable tool to study the functions of MARCO and SR-AI/II scavenger receptors and particle toxicity.

abm also have available the ZK2 (T0677) and ZK6 (T0678)clones established from limiting dilution.

Propagation:

The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow II medium available at abm . To make the completed growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to final concentration of 10% and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution to a final concentration of 1%.
Carbon dioxide (CO2): 5%, Temperature: 37.0°C.
abm does not recommend to use heat-inactivated FBS for cell culture unless specified otherwise.

Quality Control:

1) PCR genotyping used to determine the deficiency of MARCO and SR-AI/II; 2) Modified Wright staining used to identify macrophage morphology; 3) Macrophage-associated cell surface markers F4/80 and CD11b were determined by flow-cytometry.
