The NCI-N87 cell line was established from the stomach tissue of a male patient with gastric carcinoma. NCI-N87 cells are derived from the metastatic site in the liver of the patient. This cell line expresses surface glycoproteins carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and TAG 72. NCI-N87 cells are tumorigenic, display an epithelial morphology, and express adherent cultural properties. NCI-N87 is a suitable host for in vivo and in vitro transfection methods. Altogen Biosytems offers an NCI-N87 xenograft model and NCI-N87 transfection kit that can be used for stomach cancer research.
The NCI-N87 epithelial cell line was originally established from the stomach tissue of a male patient with gastric carcinoma. They are extracted from the metastatic site located in the liver. The NCI-N87 cells test positive for myc and ERRBB2 oncogenes, express carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), receptors for muscarinic cholinergic agents and TAG 72 surface glycoproteins.
