Altogen Biosystems offers the AsPC-1 Transfection Reagent among a host of 100+ cell line specific In Vitro Transfection Kits.
AsPC-1 Transfection Reagent is an advanced formulation of a nanoparticle-based liposome reagent, and it has been developed to provide high transfection efficiency with AsPC-1 and other pancreatic cancer cell lines.
This cell line is a good host for studying pancreatic cancer and human infections related to the pancreas. When cultured in vitro, AsPC-1 cells are a monolayer and adhere to the surface of the culture flask.
Other applications include drug discovery, gene expression studies, molecular and cell biology research applications.

AsPC-1Cell Line Description and Applications
The AsPC-1 cell line was established from a 62 year old Caucasian woman with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. It was reestablished through a nude mouse xenograft with cells from the ascites and the reestablished epithelial cells retained the original morphology. The AsPC-1 cells can be used to study therapeutics for pancreatic cancer. This is a crucial area of research as the five year survival rate of pancreatic cancer is less than 1%. Recent research has shown sanguinarine, a plant alkaloid, and deuterium oxide (D2O), or heavy water, induce apoptosis of AsPC-1.

3. AsPC-1Transfection Protocol

Products > AsPC-1 Transfection Reagent (Pancreatic Beta Cells)
AsPC-1Transfection Protocol
1. Plate 10, ,000 AsPC-1cells per well in 0.5 ml of complete growth medium 12–24 hours prior to transfection
2. Wash with 1xPBS and add 0.5 ml of fresh growth medium
3. Prepare transfection complexes by mixing 40 µl of serum-free medium, 5.5 µl of transfection reagent, and
• 750 ng DNA (or mRNA), or
• 30 nM - 50 nM of siRNA (or microRNA)
*Referred to a final volume including growth medium
4. Incubate transfection complexes at RT for minutes
5. Optional: Add 2 µl of Complex Condenser. This reagent reduces the size of transfection complex, therefore increasing transfection efficiency; however it may increase cell toxicity
6. Add prepared transfection complexes to 0.5 ml of complete growth medium with AsPC-1cells (from step 2)
7. Incubate cells at 37ºC in a humidified CO2 incubator
8. Assay for phenotype or target gene expression hours after transfection
Optional: Transfection efficiency can be increased by addition of Transfection Enhancer reagent. Add 2 µl of Transfection Enhancer reagent hours after transfection
If the viability of AsPC-1cells being transfected is affected at hours post-transfection, the level of cytotoxicity can be decreased by changing the growth medium and eliminating redundant exposure of cells to transfectant

Data
Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by qRT-PCR in the AsPC-1 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).

Data
Figure 2. Protein expression of Cyclophilin B in AsPC-1 cells. DNA plasmid expressing Cyclophilin B or siRNA targeting Cyclophilin B were transfected into AsPC-1 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.
