56FHTEo- Human Tracheal Epithelial Cell Line

56FHTEo- is a human fetal tracheal epithelial cell line that is immortalized with the origin-of-replication defective SV40 plasmid (pSVori-) . The cell line expresses the wild-type cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and shows cAMP-dependent chloride ion transport and calcium ion-dependent chloride transport . The cell line is permissive for adenoviruses .

56FHTEo- human tracheal epithelial cell line is a useful model for the study of epithelial ion transport, secretion and biochemistry.
