[Text version]
Cell line name eCAS
Synonyms e-CAS
Accession CVCL_7189
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: eCAS (RRID:CVCL_7189)
Comments Problematic cell line: Misidentified/contaminated. Originally thought to be of horse origin but found to be a mouse RAW 264.7 derivative (PubMed=29844485). Originally thought to be established by telomerase transfection of bone marrow cells from two 10 year old horses.
