Overview
Immortalized human alveolar epithelial cells.
CI-huArlo cells are immortalized human alveolar epithelial cells. The cell line is an improved version of CI-hAELVi alveolar epithelial cell line. It was derived from CI-huALEVi by single-cell printing, and it shows an overall improved alveolar phenotype, most notably a tighter barrier function.
While the cells do show an AT-1 phenotype in standard culture conditions, they adopt certain AT-2 characteristics in extended ALI culture conditions, including secretion of surfactants and formation of microvilli and lamellar structures.
Characteristics
- TEER of >1500 Ω/sqcm in Liquid-Liquid-Interface culture
- TEER of >2000Ω/sqcm in Air-Liquid-Interface culture
- Tight junctions (ZO1, Occludin)
- Monolayer growth on semipermeable Inserts.
- Susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection
Culture Conditions
