Overview
        | Organism | Homo sapiens, human | 
|---|---|
| Tissue | bone marrow; derived from metastatic site: pleural effusion | 
| Product Format | frozen 1.0 mL | 
| Morphology | hematopoietic | 
| Culture Properties | suspension | 
| Biosafety Level | 
				1
				 Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.  | 
		
| Disease | chronic myeloid leukemia at blast crisis | 
| Age | 53 | 
| Gender | female | 
| Applications | 
				This is a clone of the parental K562 cell line which is resistant to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate, and is paired to the K562-s clone which is sensitive to imatinib. The paired K562-s and K562-r clones are useful cell line models of sensitivity and resistance to a tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia.  |
