Immortalized Human Mammary MUC + ESA + Epithelial Cells

Description

Immortalized Human Mammary MUC+ESA+ Epithelial Cells are luminal-derived epithelial cells coexpressing sialomucin MUC and epithelial-specific antigen ESA . It has tight junction proteins, occludin, claudin-1, and the ability to build high transepithelial electrical resistance which is all characteristics of differentiated luminal epithelial phenotypes. It can form acinus-like spheres when cultures on laminin rich gel. These cells have characteristics of differentiated mature human breasts.
