The cells were transformed by infection with the NTKmT retrovirus vector that expresses polyomavirus middle T antigen. The endothelial nature of these cells was confirmed by the observed expression of von Willebrand factor and uptake of fluorescently la.

  • Description
    bEnd.3 is a mouse endothelial cell line originally derived from the cerebral cortex of a 6-week-old BALB/c mouse with endothelioma. These cells exhibit typical endothelial morphology and adherent growth properties. bEnd.3 cells can be induced by cytokines and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to express molecules such as Peyer’s junction high endothelial cell receptor, mucosal vascular settlement factor (MAdCAM-1), and endothelial cell selectins. They are positive for various endothelial-specific proteins, including PECAM-1, Endoglin, MECA-32, and Flk-1, as confirmed by Flow Cytometry (FACS) analysis.

  • Application
    The bEnd.3 cell line is a valuable model for both vascular biology and neuroscience research. It plays a crucial role in understanding diseases linked to the lymphatic and vascular systems, including endothelioma. Notably, these cells are particularly widely used to investigate blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and to assess potential therapeutic interventions targeting neurological and vascular pathologies. Additionally, their adaptability to 3D cell culture models allow researchers to simulate complex physiological conditions, enhancing the relevance of in vitro models for disease mechanism studies and drug development.
