Description9HTEo- Human Tracheal Epithelial Cell Line
Alternate Names
  • 9/HTEo-
  • 9/HTEo
  • 9HTE
Background Information9HTEo- is a human tracheal epithelial cell line that was immortalized with the origin-of-replication defective SV40 plasmid (pSVori-). The cell line retains characteristic features of normal differentiated tracheal epithelial cells including a cobblestone morphology, cytokeratin expression and the ability to form tight junctions. 9HTEo- cells contain the wild-type cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (WT-CFTR) and exhibits functional cAMP-dependent chloride ion transport and calcium ion-dependent chloride transport (1,2).

9HTEo- is a useful model for the study of epithelial ion transport, secretion and biochemistry and frequently used as a wild-type control for human CF tracheobronchial epithelial cells such as CFBE41o- (Cat. No. SCC151) and CFTE29o- (Cat. No. SCC162).
