Transfection Reagent for A204 Cells (Rhabdomyosarcoma Cells)
- A biodegradable polymer based transfection agent – once inside the cell, the polymer degrades into smaller less toxic components reducing cell toxicity, facilitating release of the transgene, and improving transfection efficiency
- Optimized for intracellular delivery of plasmid DNA, siRNA, microRNA, and mRNA
- High transfection efficiency of both siRNA and plasmid DNA without compromising cell viability
- Achieve robust siRNA uptake for dependable gene silencing
- Effective transfection under conditions of up to 40% serum
- Transfection kit includes Transfection Enhancer reagent
- Gentle enough to be used for single cell analysis
- Download in vitro A204 transfection protocol: [PDF]
- Download A204 CRISPR/Cas9 transfection protocol: [PDF]
- Download PowerPoint presentation for A204 cells transfection kit: [PPT]
- Developed and manufactured by Altogen Biosystems
Transfection Efficiency:
Reagent exhibits at least 70% transfection efficiency of siRNA delivery. Transfection efficiency was determined by real-time RT-PCR.

A204 Cell Line:
Per the American Cancer Society, there are approximately 350 diagnoses of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), cancer of connective tissue, in the US annually, more than half of these are in children younger than ten years. RMS is a rare, but extremely aggressive form of cancer, accounting for around 40% of all recorded soft tissue sarcomas in adults. Furthermore, it is considered the most common soft tissue sarcoma among children. RMS has not been extensively studied; thus, selecting an appropriate cell line with desired characteristics is particularly important. The A204 cell line has proven to be a suitable host to perform RMS preclinical research. A204 cells were derived from the muscle tissue of a one-year-old female with rhabdomyosarcoma in 1973. These are epithelial cells which were reported to form small malignant tumors in nude mice consistent with embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma. A204 cells have shown limited sensitivity to Natural Killer cell cytotoxicity. In an examination of the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of the human laminin beta-2 chain in human tumor cell lines, A204 expressed the laminin beta-2 chain mRNA and secreted laminin heterotrimers containing the beta-2 chain. A204 has been studied in culture for its capacity to synthesize collagen types and other extracellular matrix proteins.
Data:
Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by qRT-PCR in the A204 cells transfected by Cyclophilin B siRNA or non-silencing siRNA control following the recommended transfection protocol. Cyclophilin mRNA expression levels were measured 48 hours post-transfection. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Cyclophilin B data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are presented as means ± SD (n=3).
Figure 2. Protein expression of GAPDH in A204 cells. DNA plasmid expressing GAPDH or siRNA targeting GAPDH were transfected into A204 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
