abm | BVRA Stable Knockout Hepa1c1c7 Cell Line | T6282

BVRA (biliverdin reductase A) was knocked out of the mouse Hepa1c1c7 cells using sgRNAs inserted into the GuideIt-zsGreen plasmid. The plasmid was transfected and clones were selected via FACS sorting for fluorescence. Knockout was determined by qPCR and Western blot analysis. Studies have shown the loss of BVRA is associated with fat accumulation in livers of mice models. Therefore, BVRA Stable Knockout Hepa1c1c7 Cell Line is useful to study the effects of BVRA and its association with obesity, increased lipid availability, and lipotoxicity in this liver cell line.
