CHO-EPCAM cells are recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells engineered to stably express human epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM; CD326/TACSTD1), a transmembrane glycoprotein broadly expressed on epithelial tissues and highly upregulated in many epithelial-derived cancers. EpCAM is involved in cell-cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and signaling pathways associated with tumor progression and metastasis. Stable CHO-EPCAM models are commonly generated to provide controlled and reproducible EpCAM surface expression for use in binding, targeting, and functional assays involving therapeutic antibodies and engineered immune cell therapies.

CHO-EPCAM cells are widely used in oncology and translational research for the development and characterization of anti-EpCAM monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific T-cell engagers, and CAR-T or CAR-NK cell therapies. The model is particularly useful for evaluating antigen-specific binding affinity, receptor occupancy, internalization kinetics, cytotoxicity, and immune synapse formation. In addition, these cells support flow cytometry assay development, high-throughput screening, and validation of EpCAM-targeted imaging agents or diagnostic platforms. Because CHO cells exhibit stable growth characteristics and minimal endogenous expression of many human epithelial markers, they provide a consistent background for recombinant antigen expression studies.

O značce

Společnost Cytion vznikla v roce 2004 v německém Heidelbergu s jasným vědeckým posláním: dodávat ověřené lidské a zvířecí buněčné linie bez kontaminace, připravené za přísně kontrolovaných laboratorních podmínek.

Postupně se vypracovala ve spolehlivou buněčnou banku, která slouží akademickým laboratořím, biotechnologickým firmám i farmaceutickým výzkumným týmům po celém světě. Klade přitom důraz na reprodukovatelnost výsledků, přísnou kontrolu kvality a dlouhodobá partnerství.
