Zebrafish Testicular Feeder Cells (ZtA6-1)
ZtA6 cells are derived from spontaneous tumor-like hypertropheied testis isolated from albino-type (alb-1/alb-1) zebrafish. Clones were analyzed for the expression of the Sertoli cell marker (Sox9a), the germ cell marker (Vas), and the Wilm’s tumor suppressor marker (WT1). 12 clones were derived and have distinctive properties and are available.
ZtA6-1 is clone 1 out of 12 derived from the ZtA6 zebrafish testicular cells. ZtA6-1 cells are unique in which there is an absence of Sox9a expression, but expresses WT1 marker, and has phagocytic activity. It is a valuable tool to study the testicular cells in a zebrafish model. Additionally, this cell line may be mitomycin C-treated to be co-cultured with male germ cells to support spermatogenesis.
