| Cellosaurus Accession | CVCL_1D68 |
| Organism | Human |
| Growth Properties | Adherent |
| Morphology | Epithelial-like |
| Tissue | Bone; Clivus |
| Age | 64Y |

Handling information
| Instructions | 1. Check all containers for leakage or breakage. 2. Remove the frozen cells from the dry ice packaging and immediately transfer them to liquid nitrogen (liquid or vapor phase) for long-term cryopreservation. 3. This cell line has a relatively long doubling time and a slow proliferation rate. |
| Complete Medium | 71.2% IMDM [PM150510]+17.8% RPMI-1640 [PM150110]+10% Nutrient+1% Supplement |
| Incubation Atmosphere | Air, 95%; CO₂, 5% |
| Temperature | 37℃ |
| Subcultivation Ratio | 1:2 |
| Medium Renewal | 2 to 3 times per week |
| Dissociation Duration | 3-4 min |
| Subculturing Procedure | 1. Remove the culture medium from the T25 cell culture flask. 2. Add approximately 2 mL of PBS. Gently tilt the flask side to side until the PBS covers the entire bottom, then aspirate and discard the PBS. 3. Add 1 mL of 0.25% trypsin solution (containing EDTA). Gently tilt the flask side to side until the trypsin solution covers the entire bottom of the flask. 4. Incubate the cells at 37°C. Observe the cells under an inverted microscope and terminate digestion once the cells round up and detach. To avoid clumping, do not agitate the cells by tapping or shaking the flask during detachment. 5. Add 3 mL of complete culture medium to terminate digestion and disperse into a single cell suspension. 6. Collect the cell suspension and centrifuge at 1200 rpm (approximately 250 ×g) for 3 minutes. Carefully aspirate and discard the supernatant. 7. Add fresh complete culture medium, pipette gently several times to resuspend the cells, and seed them at the appropriate ratio into a new culture flask. Loosen the cap or use a vented cap for incubation. |
| Freeze Medium | General Freezing Medium [PB180436] |
| Storage Conditions | For long-term cryopreservation, cryovials should be stored in liquid nitrogen at −150°C to −196°C. Storage at −80°C is restricted to short-term interim use only. |
Reference materials
| Background | UM-Chor1 is a mesenchymal cell line isolated in 2012 from the clivus of a 64-day-old White male patient with clival chordoma prior to treatment. UM-Chor1 represents the first validated human clival chordoma cell line. It exhibits chordoma-like phenotypes and bears the characteristic molecular, genetic, and morphological hallmarks of chordoma. The cell line was established from a suprasellar lesion composed of solid, cystic, and hemorrhagic components; the primary tumor extended along the clivus into the ethmoid sinuses. Flow cytometry was used to purify primary cultures, and the NCAM-positive cell population was expanded to generate the UM-Chor1 chordoma cell line. Cells express transcription factor T (TBXT, brachyury), the most specific diagnostic marker for chordoma. |
