Product Information

CI-huBroBECs are immortalized bronchial basal epithelial cells. Bronchial epithelial cells line the respiratory airways, including the bronchi and bronchioles, where they act as a defensive barrier and maintain the airway structure. CI-huBroBECs show a basal-like phenotype in standard monolayer conditions and can be differentiated into a pseudostratified airway epithelium in ALI culture conditions, where they form ciliated cells, as well as mucus-producing goblet-like cells.

CI-huBroBECs are a newer and improved variant of our CI-huAEC cells, which they directly replace. CI-huBroBECs were derived from CI-huAECs by single-cell cloning.

Characteristics

  • TEER of >1500 Ω×sqcm in Air-Liquid-Interface culture
  • Tight junctions (ZO1)
  • Basal-like in 2D monolayer (TP63, KRT5)
  • Differentiation in ALI (CFTR, MUC5, Acetylated Tubulin)
  • Susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection

CI-huBroBEC stained with Phalloidin and DAPI.
