Cell Line Information:

Designations: AR42JOrganism: Rattus norvegicus (rat)Strain: WistarTissue: pancreas; exocrine; tumorMorphology: epithelialGrowth properties: adherentTumorigenic: yes, in athymic miceProducts: amylase and other exocrine enzymesReceptors expressed: insulin; glucocorticoidDepositors: N.W. JessopThe cells grow slowly, in clusters. They tend to pile up and appear refractile. Secretory activity is inducible by glucocorticoid stimulation, and is accompanied by extensive re-organization of the endoplasmic reticulum.

The Transfection Reagent:

AR42J Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent is a new, proprietary solution specifically designed for transfection on AR42J Cells. The proprietary formulation of lipids and polymersensures the highest possible transfection efficiencies and viabilities for AR42J Cells. No other transfection reagents can match the efficiency, convenience, and gentleness of AR42J Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent for transfection on AR42J Cells. For details of the developing process of this reagent, please go to: How did EZ Biosystems develop Avalanche™ Cell type/cell line specific transfection reagent series?
