| Description | Activated primary rat portal fibroblasts (PF) sorted via the Ntpdase2/Cd39l1 marker were immortalized with the SV40 large T antigen to generate Immortalized Rat Portal Myofibroblasts (RGF-N2). RGF-N2 cells, like primary PFs, demonstrate inhibition of cholangiocyte proliferation in co-culture conditions. The easily transfectable nature of these cells make them an ideal research tool for studying both the function of myofibroblasts and their contribution to liver fibrosis progression.
abm also offers the non sorted Immortalized Rat Portal Myofibroblasts (RGF) (T0068) |

| Propagation | Use of PriCoat™ 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 with the following conditions. The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow III medium available from ABM (TM003). To make the completed growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (TM999) to final concentration of 10% and 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (G255). Atmosphere: air: 95%, CO₂: 5%; Temperature: 37.0°C. |
| Quality Control | 1.) Gene expression analysis to confirm the expression of common liver myofibroblast-associated genes. 2.) Immunoblot and immunofluoresence microscopy to detect myofibroblast-specific cell markers. 3.) Transfection assay to confirm DNA transfectability of cells. 4.) Co-culture assay to demonstrate the inhibition of Mz-ChA-1 cholangiocarcinoma proliferation. |
| Disclaimer | 1. The CoA for this product (provided upon request) verifies the cell-type specific gene expression via RT-PCR only. 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. 2. We strongly 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). 3. All of abm's cell biology products are for research use ONLY and NOT for therapeutic/diagnostic applications. abm is not liable for any repercussions arising from the use of its cell biology product(s) in therapeutic/diagnostic application(s). Please contact a technical service representative for more information. 4. abm makes no warranties or representations as to the accuracy of the information on this site.
