IMR-90 Cell Line:

Fibroblasts are the most common connective tissue cells present in the body that are responsible for making up the structural framework since they produce the extracellular matrix and collagen. Fibroblasts are elongated cells with a round or oval nucleus that can be seen in the interstitial spaces of organs. Active fibroblasts are usually larger and contain abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum. In the lung, they are typically situated in highly complex multicellular environments. A better understanding of different fibroblast phenotypes could accelerate the path to discovery of targeted therapeutics.

The IMR-90 cell line was established in 1975 from lung fibroblasts of a 16-week-old Caucasian female fetus by W. W. Nichols and associates and is a suitable transfection host for a variety of research related to molecular biology. The IMR-90 cell line displays characteristics of both fibroblasts and differentiated smooth muscle cells and can reach roughly 58 population doublings before the onset of senescence (aging). These cells are highly utilized as model fibroblasts in a broad array of studies. At the same time, they exhibit various characteristics of differentiated smooth muscle cells, including the same elongated form as well as the longitudinal alignment of their actin-attachment sites. Altogen Biosystems provides two-components highly efficient transfection reagent kits for this cell line.

Data:

Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by qRT-PCR in the IMR-90 cells transfected by Cyclophilin B siRNA or non-silencing siRNA control following the recommended transfection protocol. Cyclophilin mRNA expression levels were measured 48 hours post-transfection. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Cyclophilin B data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are presented as means ± SD (n=6).

Figure 2. Protein expression of Cyclophilin B in IMR-90 cells. DNA plasmid expressing Cyclophilin B or siRNA targeting Cyclophilin B were transfected into IMR-90 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
