Immortalized Feline Vena Cava Endothelial Cells – SV40 & hTERT

Immortalized Feline Vena Cava Endothelial Cells – SV40 & hTERT are derived from primary endothelial cells isolated from the vena cava inferior of cats. The endothelium is involved in a variety of pathological processes, such as tumor invasion, atherosclerosis, arthritis, thrombosis, and vasculitis. With a feline model, scientists may use this model to further expand the knowledge in endothelial-related diseases in feline or can use this model to address to diseases in humans as well. The Immortalized Feline Vena Cava Endothelial Cells – SV40 & hTERT is a valuable source for long-term studies as the cells can be continuously cultured for experiments, and retains both the phenotype and characteristics as primary cells. Immunodetection performed for hTERT and SV40L T antigen.
