HeLa Cell Line:

The HeLa cell line was established from cervical cancer cells, contributing to significant medical breakthroughs, including the development of polio vaccine. HeLa is a human cell line that was first isolated in 1951 from a cervical cancer biopsy taken from a woman named Henrietta Lacks. The HeLa cell line is one of the oldest and most widely used human cell lines in biomedical research. It has been used to study a wide range of biological processes, including cell division, cancer biology, virology, and drug discovery. In addition to being the first immortal human cell with the ability to survive indefinitely in vitro, the HeLa cell line proliferates rapidly due to an active telomerase during cell division, resulting in the prevention of aging and cell death. The HeLa cell line was established using cervical cancer cells taken from Henrietta Lacks, a 31-year-old patient in 1951 who eventually died of her cancer later that year. The cells were derived from a tissue sample excised from the adenocarcinoma. The HeLa cell line has a modal chromosome number of 82 as well as four copies of chromosome 12 and three copies of chromosomes 6, 8, and 17. HeLa tests positive for keratin and lysophosphatidylcholine. Hela cells are also known to contain human papillomavirus 18 sequences. There are now many strains of HeLa cells, but all are descended from the same tumor cells removed from Lacks. Also, HeLa cells were used by Jonas Salk to test the first polio vaccine in the 1950’s. HeLa cells are highly proliferative and can divide rapidly in culture, making them an ideal tool for studying cell division and the effects of drugs on cell growth. They are also commonly used to study cancer biology because they are derived from a cancerous tissue and exhibit many of the characteristics of cancer cells, such as uncontrolled growth and division. They have also been used in AIDS research, effects of radiation and toxic substances and gene mapping. Altogen Biosystems offers the HeLa transfection reagent kit for the HeLa cervical cancer cell line, an invaluable tool in conducting a broad array of specialized biomedical applications.

Data:

Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by qRT-PCR in HeLa cells transfected by Cyclophilin B siRNA or non-silencing siRNA control following the recommended transfection protocol. Cyclophilin mRNA expression levels were measured 48 hours post-transfection. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Cyclophilin B data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are presented as means ± SD (n=3).

Figure 2. Protein expression of Cyclophilin B in HeLa cells. DNA plasmid expressing Cyclophilin B or siRNA targeting Cyclophilin B were transfected into HeLa cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
