Possibly Misidentified/Contaminated
https://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/CVCL_V613
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Disease: Glioblastoma
Category: Cancer cell line
Comments: Part of: Cancer Dependency Map project (DepMap) (includes Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia - CCLE)., Problematic cell line: Probably misidentified/contaminated. Except of a loss of an allele of TH01 the STR profile of SF172 is identical to that of SF763. Furthermore we could not find in the literature any trace of the exact origin of SF172. According to the UCSF Biorepository, there is no record of SF172 in their system while SF763 is registered there (personal communication of Shai, Anny). The TP53 mutation recorded for SF763 is also identical to the one in SF172..

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Disease: Neuroblastoma
Category: Cancer cell line
Comments: Virology: Low susceptibility to infection by Zika virus (ZIKV) (PubMed=29468137)., Characteristics: Particularly suitable for research in neurodegenerative diseases due to the fact that it has a specific uptake of norepinephrine (NA), expresses bona fide neurofilament proteins, and shows activity of enzymes involved in catecholaminergic systems (tyrosine and dopamine-beta-hydroxylases) (PubMed=35893584)., Characteristics: There seem to be differences in the retinoic acid (RA)-induced neuronal phenotype of SH-SY5Y cells from ATCC and ECACC. After 5 days of RA treatment, ECACC cells are slightly larger in size and contains significant amount of neuroblastic (N-type) cells and a small fraction of epithelial (S-type) cells (PubMed=18957096)., Characteristics: Neuroblastic type (N-type) (PubMed=15720811)., Population: Caucasian., From: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center; New York; USA., Part of: Human Protein Atlas, Cell Atlas panel., Part of: ENCODE project common cell types; tier 3., Part of: Cancer Dependency Map project (DepMap) (includes Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia - CCLE)., Problematic cell line: Partially contaminated.
