Gastric
NCI-N87 were derived from a patient with gastric cancer
Oncogene
Cells express the surface glycoproteins carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and TAG 72, and are L-dopa decarboxylase (DDC) negative. They were minimally positive for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors and lacked gastrin receptors. They were found to express receptors for muscarinic cholinergic agents. No evidence of amplification or rearrangements was noted with the N-myc, L-myc, myb and EGF receptor genes. The cell line expressed levels of c-myc and c-erb-B 2 RNA that were comparable to other cell lines.There was no expression of the following genes: N-myc, L-myc, c-cis, IGF-2, or gastrin releasing peptide. NCI-N87 cells have a reported plating efficiency of 4.3%. Ref
in vivo
Used in xenografts to test the efficacy of novel cancer therapeutics. Tumors develop after being injected into the flank of immunocompromised mice.
