Biochem/physiol Actions
A rat pancreatic Beta cell: RINm5F hybrid cell line. Insulin-secreting cell line
BRIN-BD11 is a hybrid cell line formed by the electrofusion of a primary culture of NEDH rat pancreatic islets with RINm5F (a cell line derived from a NEDH rat insuliinoma). BRIN-BD11 has been shown to be tumourigenic when transplanted into a SCID mouse host. BRIN-BD11 has been mycoplasma eradicated at ECACC and the stocks available for supply have undergone a further 10 passages without detection of mycoplasma. The cell line has applications in the study of pancreatic beta cell function.
