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.
carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), interleukin 10 (IL-10), interleukin 6 (IL-6), mucin
The production of CEA in the ATCC seed stock was 1944 ng per 10(6) cells in 10 days.
LS 174T is a variant of LS 180 (ATCC CL-187) that has been maintained by using trypsin in the subculture protocol. It is more easily subcultivated than that parent line and, like LS 180, it is reported to produce large amounts of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).
Electron microscopic studies revealed abundant microvilli and intracytoplasmic mucin vacuoles. Ref

They are negative for p53 antigen expression, but positive for mRNA expression.
LS 174T cells stain positively for cytokeratins.
The line is positive for expression of c-myc, N-myc, H-ras, N-ras, Myb, and fos oncogenes. Ref
