Cell Information:
Airway epithelial cells are targets in asthma, viral infection and fibrotic lung disease. Airway epithelial cells include human Bronchial, Tracheal, and Small Airway Epithelial Cells. These cells have been used to study the regulation of intracellular pH, the stimulant effect of IL-1b on airway epithelial cell growth, and the effect of human rhinovirus infection in terms of upregulation of ICAM-1 expression on epithelial cells.
Applications:
- Asthma
- COPD
- Airborne viruses
- Allergies
- Inhalation of nanoparticles
- Cancer
- Cystic Fibrosis
- DoD studies
The Transfection Reagent:
Transfection of primary cells, such as Human Airway Epithelial Cells, has always been challenging, both technically and financially. The most common systems currently used for molecular delivery to these cells include expensive electroporation instruments and relatively toxic chemical formulations.
Human Airway Epithelial Cell (HBEpC, HTEpC, NHBE, SAEC) Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent is a new class of unique chemical formulations specifically formulated and optimized for transfecting Human Airway Epithelial Cells. The proprietary formulation of lipids and polymers ensures the highest possible transfection efficiencies and viabilities for Human Airway Epithelial Cells. For details of the developing process of this reagent, please go to: How did EZ Biosystems develop Avalanche™ Cell type/cell line specific transfection reagent? series?
Features:
- Specifically optimized to deliver nucleic acids into Human Airway Epithelial Cells
- Highest efficiency to ensure experimental success
- Lowest Cellular Toxicity-maintain cell density and reduce experimental biases
- Synthesized from 100% animal origin-free components, making it easy to validate the absence of zoonotic diseases, such as BSE or viruses, in research experiments or cells lines

Recommended protocols for these cells will be provided with the reagent. The protocols usually provide satisfactory transfection efficiency with invisible cytotoxicity. However, optimization may be needed for certain type of cells. Optimizations may include: the amount of DNA and this transfection reagent; cell density; transfection reagent/DNA ratio, or incubation time for the mixture of transfection reagent/DNA etc. For best transfection result, we recommend using the respective cell type/cell line specific Avalanche transfection reagents. Those reagents have been optimized on both recipes and protocols, and have been proved to have the best transfection results for the respective cell lines or primary cells. You can easily find the respective Avalanche transfection reagents specific for your cells by using the filters of our product list. |
