Heln her alpha cell line

HELN were generated by transfection of cervical cancer HeLa cells with the ERE-betaGlobin-Luciferase-SV40-Neomycin plasmid. rnHELN hER alpha cells were generated by transfection of HELN cells with the plasmid pSG5-human ERalpha-puromycin. rn

Interest / Relevance: These cells enable to measure the hER alpha estrogenic activity (full and partial agonism, antagonism) of pharmaceuticals (breast cancer, menopause treatment), environmental compounds (alkylphenols, bisphenol A, phthalates or pesticides, cosmetics). rnThese cells enable to measure the hER alpha estrogenic activity of environmental (water, sediments), human (blood, urine adipose tissue) or food (water, vegetables, meat) samples.rnEstradiol EC50 17 pM
Keywords: hER alpha, luciferase, pharmaceutical and environmental estrogens
