RIN-5F

RIN-5F is a derivative of the rat islet tumor cell line RIN-m, and it boasts distinctive features. These cells are renowned for their insulin secretion capacity and their high levels of the crucial APUD enzyme, L-dopa-decarboxylase. What sets them apart is their possession of membrane-bound secretory granules, facilitating insulin release, while interestingly, they do not produce somatostatin, unlike their parental line. During subculturing, these cells take approximately 3 days to attach fully, forming small clusters instead of a continuous monolayer. It is recommended to use a subcultivation ratio of 1:3 to 1:6, with medium renewal required every 3 to 4 days to sustain their growth.
