The DT40 B-lymphocyte cell line is a chicken bursal lymphocyte tumor cell line which grows rapidly, expresses a variety of types of constitutive and signal dependent ion transport systems., and supports the efficient use of stable and conditional genetic manipulations. Below, we review the use of DT40 cells in dissecting molecular mechanisms involved in Ca2+, Mg2+, and Zn2+ transport physiology. These studies highlight the flexibility and advantages the DT40 environment offers to investigators interested in the study of basic vertebrate ion transport physiology.
DT40 B淋巴细胞系是一种鸡法氏囊淋巴细胞肿瘤细胞系,其生长迅速,表达多种组成型和信号依赖性离子转运系统,并支持稳定和条件性基因操作的有效应用。下文将综述DT40细胞在剖析Ca2+、Mg2+和Zn2+转输生理学所涉及的分子机制中的应用。这些研究突出了DT40环境为有志于研究基础脊椎动物离子转输生理学的研究者所提供的灵活性和优势。
