DescriptionYUMMER1.7D4 Mouse Melanoma Cell Line
OverviewThe YUMMER1.7D4 mouse melanoma cell line is both immunocompetent and reflective of the somatic mutations common in melanomas. YUMMER1.7D4 carries three driver mutations of melanoma: Braf V600E, Pten -/- and Cdkn2 -/- (1,2). In addition, the YUMMER1.7D4 cell line harbors a high frequency of stable UV-induced somatic mutations which have been shown to stimulate host adaptive immune response (3). YUMMER1.7D4 cells are diploid, allowing for enhanced knockout frequency in CRISPR-based screens. The unique features of the YUMMER1.7D4 cell line make it a valuable model for studies of immune checkpoint inhibition and mechanisms of anti-tumor responses.

Source:
The YUMMER1.7D4 mouse melanoma cell line is a diploid clonal isolate from YUMM1.7D4 cells exposed to UVB radiation. The original YUMM1.7 cell line was derived from a 4-hydroxytamoxifen-induced melanoma tumor in a male C57/B1/6 mouse into which mutations from the Braf/Pten genetically-engineered mouse model had been introduced via backcrossing (1). The YUMMER1.7D4 cell line harbors the Braf V600E mutation and is homozygous negative for wild-type Pten and Cdkn2 (3).

Background InformationThe great promise of immune-based therapies in cancer and recent progress in successful application of these approaches has brought to the fore the necessity of immune-competent models to evaluate immune system responses to cancer cells. Melanomas exhibit relatively high somatic mutation burden, and these mutations can act as neoantigens that generate anti-tumor immune responses. The development of immunocompetent cell models is critical to the advancement of cancer immunotherapy and understanding of immune responses, although few tractable model systems are available.
