Requesting Cell-lines : List of All Available Lines

QuickLinks:   Home » Protocols » Request Cell Lines » Download MTA » Contact

Investigators may request up to 3 cell lines (cumulative overall requests) with minimal paper work. Between 3 and 10 lines requires justification and local review and >10 lines requires a formal application and approval by the appropriate COG committee.

The prioritization of how material is distributed will be determined by the COG Disease Committees and the COG Biology and Translational Research Committee.

Some previously published cell lines, with originating investigator approval, will be characterized by the COG Cell Culture and Xenograft Repository laboratories, and made available through this web site.

Questions about the Cell Culture and Xenograft Repository can be directed to CellRequest@cogcell.org.

As of February 2011, a revised MTA was finalized to encompass most concerns that were raised in the past. The MTA is final and no changes will be possible. If you still have questions regarding the MTA, you can email CellLineInfo@cogcell.org for clarification.

Print the form, fill in your request, sign it, and either scan it to PDF format for sending to us (using the upload button on the cell request form), or fax it to 806-743-2691.

Please contact CellLineInfo@cogcell.org if you are requesting cell lines that are not currently on the Open Distribution List.

Requesting All Cell Lines

Select the cell lines wanted (requesting > 3 lines requires protocol approval) :

Select by clicking on the checkbox for the cell lines you want.

To deselect, just click on the checkbox a second time.

To view a complete cell line description (origin, growth conditions, pictures, etc.), click on the cell line name to open a pdf data sheet to view and/or download.

To view a characterization table of the EFT cell lines, click here.

Please visit the COGcell.org website frequently, as cell line data is continually being updated and new cell lines are added.

All cell lines were established in 20% O2 unless otherwise noted. Cell lines ending in "h" designates cell line was established in hypoxic conditions (5% O2 tension).
