Comments: Anecdotal: Have been flown in space on shuttle flight STS-76 and on Shenzhou-8 to study growth and cytoskeletal changes in microgravity (PubMed=10352142; DOI=10.1016/j.actaastro.2013.06.007)., Omics: Transcriptome analysis by RNAseq., Omics: Transcriptome analysis by microarray., Omics: SNP array analysis., Omics: Proteome analysis by 2D-DE/MS., Omics: DNA methylation analysis., Omics: Deep quantitative proteome analysis., Omics: Deep proteome analysis., Omics: Deep exome analysis., Omics: Deep antibody staining analysis., Karyotypic information: Has lost chromosome Y., Characteristics: Can be induced to differentiate into macrophages by several factors such as phorbol ester (PMA) and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-phorbol acetate (TPA)., Population: Caucasian., Part of: LL-100 blood cancer cell line panel., Part of: Cancer Dependency Map project (DepMap) (includes Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia - CCLE)., Problematic cell line: Partially contaminated. Some ATCC stocks were cross-contaminated by K-562 initially (PubMed=7759961). The problem was corrected and subsequent stocks have been confirmed to carry only U-937.., Group: Space-flown cell line (cellonaut).
