Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Monoclonal antibodies to epithelial membrane antigen and common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen were bound to second antibody-coated magnetic microspheres. These specific antibody/bead complexes were then used to directly isolate purified epithelial and myoepithelial cells from normal breast organoid cell preparations by magnetic separation. Near homogeneous cell populations were selected with yields of 10-20 x 10(6) epithelial and myoepithelial cells per organoid preparation. Repeated purification steps allowed almost complete depletion of myoepithelial cells for RNA studies. Tissue culture of separated cell populations in appropriate defined media further ensured purity of cell type and was unimpeded by Dynabead attachment.
