Description
The Immortalized Human Nasopharyngeal Epithelial Cells (NPEC2/Bmi1) are collected from the biopsy of a patient diagnosed with nonmalignant nasal disease and were stably transfected with the retroviral vectors pBabe-Bmi-1 and pBabe-Bmi-1 ΔRF and ΔHT. The immortalized cells maintain a normal p53 checkpoint which is a normal DNA damage response. In addition, the NPEC2/Bmi1 cells are also unlikely to have other undefined genetic lesions in comparison to other tumor-derived cells immortalized with viral oncogenes. Therefore, the Immortalized Human Nasopharyngeal Epithelial Cells (NPEC2/Bmi1) are considered the first cellular proto-oncogene immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cells. These cells are useful in serving as a cell model system for studying the mechanisms involved in the tumorigenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma using defined genetic elements.
